Chapter 6: The Nature of the Mind: Slogas - 6 to 10 Commentary:  Swami Krishnananda. ================================================================================================== Slogam-6. द्वैतवृत्तिष्वलुप्तासुब्रह्म भाति न चेतसः । अतो नाशय ताः सर्वा ब्रह्मतेजोऽभिवृद्धये ॥६॥ 6. Brahman will not shine when the dualities of the mind are not destroyed. Destroy the dualities. Brahman will shine in its pristine glory. It is impossible to have the vision of Brahman as long as there is faith in dual existence. The Light of the Self cannot be seen by one who is fast bound to plural and dual life. Even intellectual life cannot make one behold the glorious Brahman, for the intellect functions only on a dual basis. The intellect cannot work with a feeling of t...

Swami Krishnananda. Post-6. ==================================================================================================== A necessity for external control arises when that which requires to be controlled does not know the way in which it has to conduct itself in relation to others.

There is a sociological point of view sometimes visible to us at the very beginning of the Gita, a point of view of the Sankhya even in the classical sense, a point of view which is purely political, economic and personal, a point of view which may be called ethical and moral, a point of view which is cosmical, natural, universal, and a point of view which is perhaps Absolute.

Swami Krishnananda. ==================================================================================================== Arjuna was thoroughly mistaken in assessing the values of life. “Your understanding is turbid, it is not clear enough to grasp the vitality of life. Nobody asked you to start the war. It is you who started this, and I merely said nothing against it. If you want it, have it, and be done with it. After having started it of your own accord, relying on the strength of your arms, listening to nobody else's advice, what makes you now sing a different tune altogether, as if you are another person having nothing to do with the previous person that you were who decided to wage the war?
