Srimad Bhagavad-Gita :

Chapter-13. ( Kshetra-kshetrajna-vibhaga-yogam )

Introduction-5.

In  total  the  bodies,  and  their  ' drsya-prapancham   called  as  "KSHETRAM,"  and  one  which  illuminates  and  manifests,  through  them  is  "Param-Porul"  (  Divine  aspect )  called  as  "KSHETRAJNAN".


The  term  "Kshtrajnan"  indicates  the  meaning  'one  who  knows  "KSHETRAM"   and  this  further  the  state  of  "PARAMATMA."

When  to  know  many  other  things  only  the  term  "KNOWER" has  its  importance.


The  one  drives  vehicles,  is  driver,  who  riding  the horse,  is  rider,  who  is  swimming  in  the  water  is  swimmer.

Once  leave  vehicle,  he  is  no  more  a  driver,  again  who  dismounted  from  the  horse  is  not  a  rider,  further  we  cannot  say  one  who  comes  out  of  the  pool,  a  swimmer.

According  to  the  activity,  business,  transaction,  each  individual  has  gets  special  status.

  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sunday, March 21, 2021. 07:57. AM. Chapter 8: Creation and Life After Death -1. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Bhagavadgita is a moksha-shastra, a scripture on the science of the liberation of the spirit. Thus it follows the course of the return process along the same lines as the evolutionary process of the descent of the soul from the Supreme Being. The first six chapters may be said to be engaged in an exposition of self-discipline from the individual point of view, the integration of the human personality and the preparation of the whole man for the greater task which is yet to come – namely, the at-one-ment of the individual with the set-up of the universe. Some of the interpreters and commentators on the Bhagavadgita hold that the first six chapters have a relevance to the significance of the term 'twam' in the famous Upanishadic p...

================================================================================= Saturday 01, June 2024 06:40. Chapter 7: The Entry of the Absolute into the Relative -3. Post-33. ================================================================================= There are endless connections of this type. The relationship of adhyatma and adhibhuta is involved in an infinite variety of degrees of ascent and descent. This imperative of the presence of a consciousness between adhyatma and adhibhuta in various degrees is the reason why you sometimes feel there are many gods. Sometimes the question arises: Are there many gods, or only one God? There is only one God, the Absolute, but inasmuch as it manifests itself as an interconnecting link between subject and object through millions of degrees of ascent and descent, it looks as there are millions of gods. It is as if there are millions of governments merely because there are millions of officials in a centrality of administration. There is...
