Chapter-18.  Moksha-sannyasa-yogam.

Slokam-71.

=========================================================================

Very important slokam

Read carefully and  understand  well.

=========================================================================

Slokam-71. 
with Translation :

"sraddhavananasuyasca  srnuyadapi    yo   narah,

sopi  muktah  subhan   lokan   prapnuyat  punyakarmanam."

"And one who listens with faith and without envy becomes free from sinful reaction and attains to the planets where the pious dwell." 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Translation :

sraddhavan   =   one  who  has  sraddha  ( faithful  one  );

anasuyah   ca   =   and  not  envious;

yah   narah   =    who,  the  man;

srnuyat   api  =  does  heat  atleast;

sah   api    muktah   =   he  also  being  liberated;

punya-karmanam   =   holy  pious  atma-s  of  the  past;

subhan    lokan     =   in  the  auspicious  worlds;

prapnuyat   =   attains. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  

Bhashyam (Vyakyanam) :   

Furthermore Lord Krishna confirms that one with faith in Him, without malice and envy, who even hears slokam-s  of  Srimad Bhagavad-Gita from His devotee is sufficient to free one from the sins obstructing one from beginning bhakti exclusive loving devotion unto the Supreme Lord by which one will become a muktah liberated being. 

Just to hear this divine discourse from the Supreme Lords devotee is enough to be released from samsara the perpetual cycle of birth and death. 

Such a blessed one will join the ranks of the Supreme Lords devoted servitors abiding eternally in the imperishable spiritual realms.

Even if one does not recite it themselves but listens to others reciting Srimad Bhagavad-Gita. 

Such a person who appreciates the words of Lord Krishna and has faith in them and is not critical of a faulty pronunciation or imperfect meter. 

Such a person from merely hearing this divine discourse will enter the joyous heavenly spheres at the cessation of life.

Continuing further Lord Krishna affirms that even one who merely hears another reciting Srimad Bhagavad-Gita is totally released from all sins as well; if they have listened with sincerity and humility.

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