This thread is intended to post as well as discuss Lord Krishna's teachings from this show & Verses from The Bhagavad Gita(Divine Song).
Pearls from Bhagavad Gita
Ananyaaschinthayantho mam
ye janah paryupaasathe
Thesham nithyaabhiyukthanam
yogakshemam vahaamyaham
Lord Krishna says that I shall take care of the well being, and welfare of that bhaktha who nurtures no other thought than me. He depends on nobody but Me. Those who always think of Me, who always hold on to my feet, I take care of their yoga and kshema." Yoga means attaining the unattainable. Kshemam means to keep safe that which is attained. Only these two are needed in life.
karmanye vadhika raste,
Ma phaleshu kadachana;
ma karma phala he tur bhuh,
ma te sangvasta karmani
To action alone hast thou a right and never at all to its fruits; let not the fruits of action be thy motive; neither let there be in thee any attachment to inaction.
patram puspam phalam toyam
yo me bhakty prayacchati
tad aham bhakty-upahrtam
asnmi prayattmanah
God will accept anything you offer with love and devotion, be it a leaf, a flower or water. The spiritual meaning of this means the body of the devotee should be the leaf, the flower is the heart and the water is tears of joy. We have to offer only these three.
yada yada hi dharmasya
glanir bhavati bharata
abhyutthanam adharmasya
tadatmanam srjamy aham
Whenever and wherever there is decline of dharma (righteousness) and ascendance of adharma (unrighteousness), at that time I manifest Myself in visible form. For the protection of the righteous and destruction of the wicked, and for the sake of establishing dharma again, I incarnate Myself on earth ages after ages.
Paritranaya sadhunam
vinashaya cha dushkritam.
Dharma sansthapanarthaya
sambhavami yuge yuge.
For the up-liftment of the good and virtuous,
For the destruction of evil,
For the re-establishment of the natural law,
I will come, in every age
bjam mm sarva-bhtnm
viddhi prtha santanam
buddhir buddhimatm asmi
tejas tejasvinm aham
I am present as the seed in all the living beings.
Know Me as the eternal seed of all beings.
tad viddhi pranipatena
pariprasnena sevaya
upadeksyanti te jnanam
jnaninas tattva-darshinah
Acquire this transcendental knowledge from a Self-realized person by humble reverence, by sincere inquiry, and by service. The wise ones who have realized the Truth will teach you.
tani sarvani samyamya yukta
asita matparah
vase hi yasyendriyani
tasya prajna pratishita
One should fix one's mind on Me with loving
contemplation after bringing the senses under
control. One's intellect becomes steady when one's
senses are under complete control.
