Srimad Bhagavad-Gita :

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

Slokam-2. ( Lord  Sri Krishna  reply  to  Arjuna )


Sri-bhagavan uvaca

idam  sariram  kaunteya  kshetram  iti  abhidhiyate,


etat  yah  vetti  tam prahuh  kshetrajna  iti  tadvidah.


Sri-bhagavan uvaca  =  Lord  replied;

 kaunteya  idam  sariram  =  arjuna!  this  body;

kshetram  iti  abhidhiyate  =  (is)  called  as  Kshetram;

etat  yah  vetti  =  one  who  knows  this;

tam  kshetrajna  iti  =  he  is  Kshetragjan;

tadvidah. prahuh   =  so  say  the  known  person.


1.

"Atma-Sakshatkaram" :   is  an  'Aparokshanuputi'  ( inner  experience ).

It  is  not  a  practical ( external practice ),  but  is  inner  regulation  and  practice.

The  great  Bharatheeya  Rishi-s  declared  that  it  is  "Atmanusandhanam  itself  is  path  of  Atmanubhuti."

What  is  svarupam  of  Atma,  and  and  its encircling  Atma's  specifications  are  shown  in  this  chapter  scientifically.

Sadhakan from  Anatma-things,  by  separating  Atma-svarupam,  and  he  who  understands,  that  is  his  trua  Atma  itself,  in  this  stage  he  knows  that  Anatma-vastus  are  not  true.

2.

One  who  experiences  the 'Jagratha-avastha'  ( awaken ),  he  himself  experiences  in  his  mind's  a  special  reflection  of  bhavam  the  'Swapna-avastha' ( dream ).

When  he  wakes  up  only  he  understands  it  is  mind's  false  creation  only, i.e, dream.

Likewise,  our  true  svarupam,  'Paramatma-tattvam,'  when  get  into  it  this  'Diverse-Prapancham  disappears.

In  "Atma-Sakshatkatam"  there  is  no  place  for  'Anatma-vastus.'

3.

Thus  in  tattva-sastram's  drushti  ( view )  there  are  two  parts  for  man : 1. the  'JADA-VASTU-SANGHATHAM'  AND 2.  'CHAITHANYAM'.

In  this  slokam  these  things  are  dealt with.

To be continued  ...

  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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...
