The Philosophy of the Bhagavadgita - 5.4. Swami Krishnananda
=========================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Friday, May 22, 2020. Chapter 5: The Mortal and the Immortal-4. --------------------------------------------------------------- 1. The difficulties mentioned, in a few words, in the First Chapter of the Bhagavadgita are not ordinary jokes or mere stories told to us for our cajolement. These things are the difficulties of human nature as such. It is not just my difficulty or your difficulty. Anyone who is human shall have to pass through these stages. Who can ever gainsay that one does not think in terms of gains and losses, in the light of one’s relationship with the world outside and human society externally. We love and hate, and have our ways in this complex of relationship in the world and in all human affairs. Where does God come in here into this picture? ----------------------------------------------------------------...
