Srimad Bhagavad-Gita :


Chapter-5. ( Karma-sanyasa-yogam )


Introduction-5.


Gita  prescribes  with  few  changes  whatever  said  in  Veda-s,  on  the  procedure  and  steps  of  Sadhana.

Sri  Vedavyasa  Maharishi  during  Rishi's  period  presented  the  secrets  of  Vedik-informations  before  the  people  of  those  days  in  a  simple  way.

It  is  not  correct  to  address  this  as  a  Adhyatmic  revolution  as  criticism  by  some  so  called  self-appointed  scholars.

Revolution  is  by  discarding  or  deleting  or  destroying  old  sampradayam  / customs,  and  reinstalling  the  revolutionary  customs  in  place  of  that,  but,  hence  it  is  not  wise  to  say  that  Sri  Vyasa  Maharishi  had  done  a  revolutionary  act  as  by the  present  day  scholars  view.

To be continued  ....

Bhagavan Sri Krishna – The Divine Perfection : 7. Swami Krishnananda

19.04.2019 (Spoken on Sri Krishna Janmashtami, August 25, 1978) 7. I was chatting with some friends the other day when I put a question whether anybody has written a biography of Bhagavan Sri Krishna. We came to the conclusion nobody has written it, and perhaps nobody will write it. The reason is that it is impossible to conceive the many-sidedness of this personality because anyone who tries to write a biography of such a person has to rise to that level of perfection of thinking, which is ordinarily not possible. And if one attempts to think in such a thoroughness and completeness and many-sidedness, the mind may get stunned and any kind of writing will be impossible. It is impossible to write the beauty of the ocean. We can only appreciate it by looking at it. We want to see it again and again, and we want to be there always. The thundering waves that dash upon the shores, ebbing and flowing, catching our spirits – we do not know how they work, but they do work. We enjoy t...
