Swami on the Bhagawad Gita

[Guest guest]

dhrtarastra uvaca dharma-ksetre kuru-ksetre samaveta yuyutsavah mamakah pandavas caiva kim akurvata sanjayaSo starts the Great Bhagawad Gita when King Dritharastra asks Sanjaya as to why his sons and the sons of Pandu needed to fight in Kurukshetra. Krishna told the Bhagawad Gita to Arjuna not only to remove doubts about the war but also to enlighten him on various other aspects of life, Lord Krishna understood that Arjuna was weak mentally and needed to be told more than just needing to fight, In the wonderful Chapter II,Lord Krishna says “You have a right to perform your prescribed duty, but you are not entitled to the fruit of action. Never consider yourself the cause of the results of your activities, and never be attached to not doing your duty.” Duty should be done with sincerity and Purpose and everything will take care of itself. SWAMI NEVER EXPECTS ANYTHING ,SWAMI ALWAYS GIVES,

GIVES.Arjuna was Krishna's Greatest Disciple, He would follow whatever Krishna said and whatever the Lord Asked him to do. Arjuna never wavered from His Great Devotion for Krishna. When Krishna asked him as to why he had chosen an unarmed Krishna over the might of the Yadava Army along with all their Weapons, Arjuna Replied " You are enough for me over the entire world", that is also why Arjuna lost all his Great Archery Powers, he could not even lift his famed bow after Krishna had completed his Divine Avathar.The greatest lesson that you all can learn from the Bhagawad Gita is Devotion to the Lord, Lord Krishna in the most wonderful Chapter 12 says 'Those who fix their mind on Me and who always are engaged in worship, endowed by Me with faith are considered to be the strongest in every way.Learn from the Bhagawad Gita, learn the great qualities from it,learn the wonderful Examples from the Bhagawad Gita.
