BG 11.55My dear Arjuna, he who engages in My pure devotional service, free from the contaminations of fruitive activities and mental speculation, he who works for Me, who makes Me the supreme goal of his life, and who is friendly to every living being – he certainly comes to Me.Please feel free to join our Kṛṣṇa Consciousness Telegram group chat (for both prabhujīs and mātājīs): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://t.me/iskmnews

BG 10.41-42Know that all opulent, beautiful and glorious creations spring from but a spark of My splendor. But what need is there, Arjuna, for all this detailed knowledge?

I distribute Bhagavad-gītā. I mean, I meet people—ball in the street. In fact, I don't hand Bhagavad-gītās to Indians, because they're going to say, "I already know Bhagavad-gītā, my mother read Bhagavad-gītā, and my grandmother memorized Bhagavad-gītā." So as everybody knows, if they see me distributing on the street, I withhold and I say, "You already know this. This is not for you. And your mother read Bhagavad-gītā, your grandmother memorized Bhagavad-gītā." And they were going, "What do I say now? There's more to it." It's not like I don't give them a Bhagavad-gītā, but that's it. But the fact is, millions of people know about the Bhagavad-gītā, but who actually communes with Kṛṣṇa through the Bhagavad-gītā? I'm not saying that I have such intimacy, but it is Kṛṣṇa's direct words. There's nothing like the Bhagavad-gītā in this whole world. It's Kṛṣṇa speaking directly to us, as Prabhupāda said, "It's not just Arjuna." And as Lord Caitanya said, "With one arrow"—that is the speaking of the Bhagavad-gītā, Kṛṣṇa saved the whole world." What kind of book is that that I'm not reading? What kind of book is that that I'm not reading? And so that's another one: to really try to read Bhagavad-gītā and listen for His voice, that He's speaking to...to me when I read the Bhāgavata. When He says, "Mama," He's actually there on the page. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

This is a comprehensive discussion on the topic of 'what is spiritual and what is not' as part of an ongoing series on the Wisdom of Bhagavad Gita. There are common misconceptions about spirituality. The term 'spirit' is used in various contexts and while many things are labeled as spiritual, not everything considered sacred or supernatural is truly spiritual from a Vedic perspective.For example, there is the common misconception that nature is inherently spiritual, but while nature can influence our state of consciousness positively, it none-the-less remains material energy.The ancient Vedic understanding is that in this world there are two fundamental energies: material energy (comprised of atoms and particles) and spiritual energy. The spiritual energy is the spiritual being (ātmā – the self or the spirit soul) which is eternal, unchanging, and personal, and temporarily residing within a material body.The spiritual journey is not to find a better way to enjoy the world with my material covering (body and mind). It is to discover my real spiritual identity, reestablish my lost connection with my source, the Supreme Soul or God, and become immersed in a relationship of love and loving service to the Supremely Lovable God.Some verses that were quoted:Yet there is another nature, which is eternal and is transcendental to this manifested and unmanifested matter. It is supreme and is never annihilated. When all in this world is annihilated, that part remains as it is. - Bhagavad-gītā 8.20 Besides this inferior nature, O mighty-armed Arjuna, there is a superior energy of Mine, which are all living entities who are struggling with material nature and are sustaining the universe. - Bhagavad-gītā 7.5O son of Bharata, as the sun alone illuminates all this universe, so does the living entity, one within the body, illuminate the entire body by consciousness. Bhagavad-gītā 13.34Here is a link to another talk on the subject, The Nature of the Soul: YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9fAaCDZltU&ab_channel=AcharyaDas Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1Bx7hRtWgc/ Acharyadas.com - https://acharyadas.com/the-nature-of-the-soul/ Additional quotes around what is a spiritual person that people may benefit from:Arjuna said: O Kṛṣṇa, what are the symptoms of one whose consciousness is thus merged in transcendence? How does he speak, and what is his language? How does he sit, and how does he walk? - Bhagavad-gītā 2.54The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: O Pārtha, when a man gives up all varieties of desire for sense gratification, which arise from mental concoction, and when his mind, thus purified, finds satisfaction in the self alone, then he is said to be in pure transcendental consciousness. - Bhagavad-gītā. 2.55One who is not disturbed in mind even amidst the threefold miseries or elated when there is happiness, and who is free from attachment, fear and anger, is called a sage of steady mind. - Bhagavad-gītā. 2.56In the material world, one who is unaffected by whatever good or evil he may obtain, neither praising it nor despising it, is firmly fixed in perfect knowledge. - Bhagavad-gītā. 2.57One who is able to withdraw his senses from sense objects, as the tortoise draws its limbs within the shell, is firmly fixed in perfect consciousness. - Bhagavad-gītā. 2.58The embodied soul may be restricted from sense enjoyment, though the taste for sense objects remains. But, ceasing such engagements by experiencing a higher taste, he is fixed in consciousness. - Bhagavad-gītā. 2.59He is a perfect yogī who, by comparison to his own self, sees the true equality of all beings, both in their happiness and distress, O Arjuna! - Bhagavad-gītā 6.32A person is said to be still further advanced when he regards all—the honest well-wisher, friends and enemies, the envious, the pious, the sinner and those who are indifferent and impartial-with an equal mind. - Bhagavad-gītā 6.9

Now Krishna talks about what real spiritual practice looks like. Extreme or harsh rituals? Not the vibe. True giving, discipline, and sacrifice are done with love, kindness, and intention. #bhagavadgita #gita #learninggita #krishna

In this podcast, we will discuss how we can use Lord Krishna's wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita to build our emotional strength . Krishna  is not only seen as a divine being but also as a wise teacher and guide in Hindu philosophy. So here are Lord Krishna's Lessons on how to build our emotional strength from the philosophy of Hinduism -  01. Embrace Your Dharma 02. Practice Karma Yoga  03. Practice Vairagya 04. Understand Your True Self 05. Surrender to the divine I hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope that this wisdom on how to to build our emotional strength from the philosophy of Lord Krishna will be helpful in your life.  Krishna is an important figure in Hindu philosophy. He is not only seen as a divine being but also as a wise teacher and guide. In the epic story of the Mahabharata, he serves as the charioteer for Arjuna, a brave warrior. Arjuna faces a serious existential crisis on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, where he struggles with doubts and confusion about his duty. As he prepares to fight, he feels torn because he has to battle against his own family, teachers, and friends. This heavy burden of sorrow and compassion makes him question if the war is right and whether he should even fight at all. During this difficult time, Krishna steps in to help Arjuna. He is not just a divine figure; he is a caring mentor who understands Arjuna's internal conflict. Krishna realizes that Arjuna's struggle reflects challenges we all experience in life. Through the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita, he offers advice that goes beyond the battle, touching on key concepts such as duty, action without attachment and the importance of devotion. The bhagavad Gita is a 700-verse Hindu text that is part of the Indian epic Mahabharata. It tells the story of a deep conversation between Arjuna and Krishna just before going into battle. In this conversation, Krishna shares important spiritual wisdom and guidance to help Arjuna deal with his inner struggles and confusion about fighting in the war. It is important to note that the Bhagavad Gita isn't promoting actual warfare or physical conflict; instead, it uses the battlefield as a metaphor for the inner struggle against the ignorance and moral dilemmas we experience.And just like Arjuna, we all deal with conflicts and tough decisions. Krishna's wisdom for Arjuna; well it's for all of us

Happiness & Distress are not Permanent | Bhagavad GitaLord Krishna to Arjuna

In this episode, we chat about how everyone has their own kind of faith—peaceful, fiery, or a bit confused. The way we worship usually reflects our nature. And that faith shapes the kind of person we become. #bhagavadgita #gita #learninggita #krishna

Arjuna corre contrato tempo pra cumprir com sua promessa e vingar seu filho.

Life's most painful moments often carry the seeds of our deepest transformation. In this powerful episode, author and scholar Simon Haas joins Wisdom of the Sages to illuminate how the Bhagavad Gita frames personal crisis—not as a detour from the spiritual path, but as an integral part of it. Known as Vishad Yoga, the yoga of crisis, this ancient wisdom reveals how despair can become a gateway to awakening. Through the lens of Arjuna's breakdown on the battlefield, Simon explains the four universal symptoms of a dark night of the soul: •⁠  ⁠Intense suffering tied to time—fear of the future, lamentation for the past, and confusion in the present •⁠  ⁠A powerful urge to withdraw from life or even give up •⁠  ⁠Confrontation with parts of ourselves we'd rather not see •⁠  ⁠A feeling of complete helplessness, where even our best tools no longer work Rather than avoiding these moments, Simon shows us how to recognize them as sacred rites of passage—times when the soul is being reshaped by divine design. Learn how to navigate the inner battlefield with the guidance of yoga philosophy, and why the teachings of Krishna to Arjuna offer a timeless blueprint for turning breakdown into breakthrough. Key Highlights: •⁠  ⁠Why suffering often precedes spiritual evolution •⁠  ⁠How to listen, surrender, and evolve when everything falls apart •⁠  ⁠Why the world's greatest spiritual texts were born from suffering •⁠  ⁠Practical tools from the Gita for navigating emotional crisis This episode is a profound companion for anyone going through grief, loss, disillusionment, or inner change. Let the Gita be your guide through the shadows.

Bhagavad Gita Ch. 11 “Yoga of the Vision of the Universal Form” Verses 53, 54, & 55 The lecture discusses Krishna's statement that the cosmic form witnessed by Arjuna is not available to even Devas and cannot be experienced through knowledge of Vedas, charity, or austerity. Single-pointed devotion to the Supreme is the only means to achieve the vision of the Supreme self through learning and reflecting on its nature.

Podcast audio: The post Talk by Jiryu “Arjuna's Dilemma” first appeared on The Village Zendo.

This talk continues our Bhagavad-gita Wisdom Series with the topic: “Beyond Happiness & Distress – A Guide to Emotional Well-Being.”We explore two fundamental perspectives:• The materialistic view, which identifies the self with the body and mind.• The spiritual perspective, which sees the self as an eternal spiritual being temporarily residing in a body and struggling with the mind.According to yogic teachings, emotions arise from mental processes and are not intrinsic to the soul. These teachings emphasize the importance of tolerating desires and emotions rather than being controlled by them. This state of inner steadiness is likened to an ocean—remaining calm despite the many rivers that flow into it.The ancient wisdom of yoga introduces the concept of becoming an Atmarama—one who is self-satisfied—finding lasting spiritual happiness within rather than seeking temporary fulfillment in external sources.Meditation is a key practice for self-realization, accessible to everyone. The transformative power of meditating on transcendental sound can be compared to the sunrise dispelling fog, bringing clarity and insight. As yoga wisdom deepens, it reshapes one's perspective on life and relationships, leading to genuine peace and fulfillment.The verses which I quote from the Bhagavad-gītā: Some look on the soul as amazing, some describe him as amazing, and some hear of him as amazing, while others, even after hearing about him, cannot understand him at all. Bhagavad-gītā 2.29 O son of Kuntī, the nonpermanent appearance of happiness and distress, and their disappearance in due course, are like the appearance and disappearance of winter and summer seasons. They arise from sense perception, O scion of Bharata, and one must learn to tolerate them without being disturbed. - Bhagavad-gītā 2.14O best among men [Arjuna], the person who is not disturbed by happiness and distress and is steady in both is certainly eligible for liberation. - Bhagavad-gītā 2.15That happiness which is derived from contact of the senses with their objects and which appears like nectar at first but poison at the end is said to be of the nature of passion. - Bhagavad-gītā 18.38That which in the beginning may be just like poison but at the end is just like nectar and which awakens one to self-realization is said to be happiness in the mode of goodness. - Bhagavad-gītā 18.37A person who is not disturbed by the incessant flow of desires—that enter like rivers into the ocean which is ever being filled but is always still—can alone achieve peace, and not the person who strives to satisfy such desires. - Bhagavad-gītā 2.70Be steadfast in yoga, O Arjuna. Perform your duty and abandon all attachment to success or failure. Such evenness of mind is called yoga. - Bhagavad-gītā 2.48These are some additional verses which you might benefit from:One who is not envious but who is a kind friend to all living entities, who does not think himself a proprietor, who is free from false ego and equal both in happiness and distress, who is always satisfied and engaged in (loving)devotional service with determination and whose mind and intelligence are in agreement with Me-he is very dear to Me. - Bhagavad-gītā 12.13-14One who is free from illusion, false prestige, and false association, who understands the eternal, who is done with material lust and is freed from the duality of happiness and distress, and who knows how to surrender unto the Supreme Person, attains to that eternal kingdom. - Bhagavad-gītā 15.5One who is not disturbed in spite of the threefold miseries, who is not elated when there is happiness, and who is free from attachment, fear and anger, is called a sage of steady mind. - Bhagavad-gītā 2.56For one who has conquered the mind, the Super Soul is already reached, for they have attained tranquillity. To such a man happiness and distress, heat and cold, honor and dishonor are all the same. - Bhagavad-gītā 6.7

As we wrap up Chapter 16, Krishna explains that demonic beings, driven by ego, hypocrisy, and arrogance, perform ostentatious rituals without sincerity, disregarding divine principles. He warns that those who reject the scriptures and act selfishly are doomed to ignorance and suffering, urging Arjuna to follow the guidance of the shastras to determine right and wrong, thereby attaining liberation.

I have been wanting to do a deep dive on the Bhagavad Gita for years. This rich text is often called the “jewel” of the Mahabharata and can be kind of intimidating to talk about. There is so much to cover. That's why this podcast will be the first in a series about the Bhagavad Gita. We'll start with exploring the profound themes of this amazing text and contrasting it with the Yoga Sutras. We'll talk about how the dialogue between Arjuna and Krishna serves as a guide for navigating our own moral dilemmas. Listen and learn:

In the Bhagavad-gītā, Kṛṣṇa has a student named Arjuna, who asked Him various questions. One of the ones that I've always appreciated was, "How do you tell if somebody is spiritually advanced?" And he asked, "How does such a person sit? How does he walk? And also, how does the person speak?" And all of these are indicative of what's inside ourselves—how we speak, how we think about the world, where we walk, where are we going, using our legs. Sometimes we say we "vote with our feet." And Kṛṣṇa said to Arjuna, when He first answered that, "When one is able to notice that the mind is a factory that's producing ideas for enjoyment, happiness in the world, or avoiding unhappiness, more likely, and is able to observe that 'I'm separate from the mind. The mind is going on creating these things, and I'm not obligated to chase after them.'" And then He said that one who can find satisfaction within him or herself, that's a sign that you're making spiritual advancement. It's something to be experienced directly.

Now we're going on in all the demonic qualities! Krishna describes the mindset of demonic individuals as arrogant, self-indulgent, and deluded by material desires, believing that life's purpose is sense gratification, accumulating wealth through unjust means, and thinking themselves superior while disregarding dharma, ultimately leading to self-destruction.

“O King, as I repeatedly recall this wondrous and holy dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna, I take pleasure, being thrilled at every moment.” (Sanjaya, Bhagavad-gita, 18.76)

Bhagavad Gita Ch. 11 “Yoga of the Vision of the Universal Form” Verses 50, 51, & 52 The lecture discusses Arjuna's request to see Krishna in the form of Vishnu. Instead, Krishna showed him his gentle human form as Vasudeva, son of Vasudev, and why.          Moksharthi - Please visit YouTube for Bhajans by Neil Bhatt - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8jOW56VdfinQGoaP3cRFi-lSBfxjflJE Gita for Daily Living - Now on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/@GitaforDailyLiving

In this episode, Krishna explains that beings are born with either divine or demonic qualities, where the divine lead to liberation and the demonic to bondage. He lists the demonic traits such as hypocrisy, arrogance, harshness, anger, ignorance, and lack of righteousness, which drive people away from truth and spiritual progress.

What if instead of Shri Krishna chanting the Bhagavad Gita to you in Sanskrit, He was rapping it to you in English? Would you resonate more with His message? A team from across North America, guided by Shri Vivek Gupta of Chinmaya Mission Niagara, has worked to make this a reality, translating the top 70 verses (10%) of the Bhagavad Gita into English, in the same meter as the original -- to bring the authentic message of the Divine into a modern rhythm for contemporary audiences. Join us for the release of Rhythm Divine, dropping on Holi, March 14th, right here on Live Vedanta! Want to drop by the release party? We'll be gathering as a CommUnity on Thursday, March 13.

In the first few verses of Chapter 16, Krishna describes the divine qualities that lead to liberation. These virtues align one with the divine path, fostering spiritual growth and freedom from bondage.

Bhagavad Gita Ch. 11 “Yoga of the Vision of the Universal Form” Verses 47, 48, & 49 The lecture discusses Krishna's statement that no one has ever seen the Cosmic Form before Arjuna and that this Cosmic Form is not available to the seekers pursuing traditional religious practices.

In the final verses of Chapter 15, Krishna reveals that He is the Supreme Divine, the source of light, nourishment, memory, and knowledge, sustaining all beings and guiding them beyond the perishable (material world) and the imperishable (soul). He declares that knowing Him as the Supreme Truth liberates one from illusion, making this wisdom the highest teaching of the scriptures.

“O King, as I repeatedly recall this wondrous and holy dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna, I take pleasure, being thrilled at every moment.” (Sanjaya, Bhagavad-gita, 18.76)

“O King, as I repeatedly recall this wondrous and holy dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna, I take pleasure, being thrilled at every moment.” (Sanjaya, Bhagavad-gita, 18.76)

Arjuna continua sua saga atrás de Jayadrata. Drona e Duryodhana fazem planos. O dia está quase acabando.

En el capítulo 11 del Bhagavad-Gita, un texto sagrado del hinduismo, el dios Krishna revela su forma divina al guerrero Arjuna, y el pasaje describe su presencia con estas palabras: "Si el resplandor de mil soles estallara de repente en el cielo, sería como el esplendor del todopoderoso." Años después, se relacionó al científico estadounidense Robert Oppenheimer con la frase "más brillante que mil soles", alegando que la mencionó poco después de contemplar los efectos de la prueba Trinity, en la que los Estados Unidos utilizaron por primera vez un arma nuclear en el desierto e Nuevo México, el 16 de julio de 1945. No se sabe con seguridad si la dijo en aquel instante. Sin embargo, la frase se asociaría en los años posteriores a las explosiones nucleares, especialmente después de que el físico alemán Robert Jungk la usara como título de uno de sus libro de 1956, donde narraba los pormenores del desarrollo científico de la bomba. En una entrevista de 1965 Oppenheimer declaró: "Supimos que el mundo no volvería a ser el mismo. Algunas personas se rieron, otras lloraron. La mayoría permaneció en silencio. Recordé la frase de la escritura hindú, el Bhagavad-Gita: cuando Visnú está tratando de persuadir al Príncipe de que debe cumplir con su deber y, para impresionarlo, adopta su forma de múltiples brazos y dice: "Ahora me he convertido en la Muerte, el destructor de mundos". Supongo que todos pensamos eso, de una manera u otra".

“It is better to live in this world by begging than to live at the cost of the lives of great souls who are my teachers. Even though they are avaricious, they are nonetheless superiors. If they are killed, our spoils will be tainted with blood.” (Arjuna, Bhagavad-gita, 2.5)

Krishna explains that our eternal soul is bound by material nature and experiences pleasure and pain through the mind and senses. While the ignorant fail to perceive the soul's divine nature, the wise—through spiritual vision—recognize its transcendental presence beyond the physical body.

Bhagavad Gita Ch. 11 “Yoga of the Vision of the Universal Form” Verses 44, 45, & 46 The lecture discusses Arjuna's mixed feelings of rejoicing and fear while witnessing the cosmic form of the Supreme Being and his admission that he would like to see him in the gentler form of Vishnu, with a crown on his head and a mace and discus in his hands.

Hello, and welcome to Entangled! The podcast where we explore the science of consciousness, the true nature of reality, and what it means to be a spiritual being having a human experience.I'm your host, Jordan Youkilis, and in this episode, I interview my professor, Dr. Sue Brown, on Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's commentary on the Bhagavad Gita. This episode serves as part of the Maharishi Vedic Science miniseries, so if you enjoy this discussion, check out the rest of the series in episodes 47-53.In this conversation, Dr. Brown and I discuss the Bhagavad Gita's setting on a battlefield, the ultimate location of conflict and extreme differences. We discuss how the battlefield is symbolic of the challenges people face in the world. Dr. Brown describes how to go inward to the field of unity in order to transcend these conflicts.Next, we consider this act of transcending as the essence of the Bhagavad Gita, and the practice of Transcendental Meditation as a pathway for avoiding war. Sue describes Chapter 2, Verses 45 and 48 as master keys to unlocking the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita. We discuss the events of the Gita in the broader context of the Mahabharata in which they take place.From there, Dr. Brown explains how Maharishi's commentary differs from those of other sages throughout the ages. We consider the universal field of consciousness, which our individual brains reflect. We discuss how Krishna helps Arjuna navigate the conflict between his heart and mind, between the collective consciousness demands for him to defend his people while also having compassion for the family members on the opposing force whom he must kill. Dr. Brown and I discuss how the human dilemmas captured in the Bhagavad Gita are universal issues, encountered throughout the ages.Next, we consider Samkhya (theoretical) and Yoga (practical) knowledge contained in the Gita. We discuss how Arjuna reconciles the sin of murder and war with the transcendental forces of collective consciousness. We consider the time period of the Bhagavad Gita, and the similarities with our current Kali Yuga – an age of stress. We discuss the opportunity we currently have to usher in Satya Yuga, a time of construction and creativity.From there, we dive into Chapter 3 and ideas of Yagya, Dharma, Karma Yoga, the path of action, and Gyana Yoga, the path of knowledge. We discuss why the danger of following another's dharma is more dangerous than death. We then discuss Chapter 4 and how action and renunciation of action are two sides of the same coin. We consider misinterpretations of the Gita, including those who view renunciation/detachment as a necessary state of life, rather than as a state of consciousness. We consider the rise and fall of knowledge throughout time.Dr. Brown explains why Maharishi chose to emphasize his teachings on the practical effect of enlightenment, not just the theoretical knowledge. We discuss the four pillars of Yoga – Raja, Karma, Bhakti and Gyana Yoga, and the concept of Moksha, or liberation. We consider how action in accordance with natural law leads to spontaneous right action, and how the path of enlightenment is one of effortlessness and bliss.We then discuss Krishna's final words to Arjuna in Chapter 6, his guidance: “Therefore, be a Yogi.”. We end the conversation discussing the state of unity consciousness and how Brahmin consciousness refers to regaining memory of totality.Music from the show is available on the Spotify playlist “Entangled – The Vibes”.

What does it mean to lead with wisdom and spirituality in times of war? We explore this question through ancient and modern perspectives on warfare, drawing from the timeless teachings of the Bhagavad Gita. Shedding light on the mental state of leaders responsible for innocent casualties, we contrast their actions with Vedic warriors guided by duty and spiritual principles. Reflecting on Krishna's guidance to Arjuna, we examine the importance of fighting with knowledge and purpose, offering a stark comparison to today's morally complex conflicts.Our conversation reveals how propaganda dehumanises victims of conflict and explores the transformative power of spiritual teachings—highlighting knowledge and yoga as tools to combat ego and ignorance.Join us to explore sustainable spirituality and the role of local activism in creating a more compassionate world. This episode also marks the bittersweet farewell to our beloved co-host, Keli Woods, as we celebrate his contributions and wish him success in his musical journey.Want to connect further?Instagram: www.instagram.com/radhika_dasa/Facebook: www.facebook.com/radhikadasmusicYouTube: www.youtube.com/c/RadhikaDasWebsite: www.radhikadas.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/radhikadasLinktree: linktr.ee/radhika_dasa

“Alas, how strange it is that we are preparing to commit greatly sinful acts, driven by the desire to enjoy royal happiness.” (Arjuna, Bhagavad-gita, 1.44)

Kṛṣṇa says in the Bhagavad-gītā, a practical matter, that by studying this dialogue, the Bhagavad-gītā, which is the Vedic intelligence we just heard, He said that you worship Me by your intelligence. And if you read Bhagavad-gītā every day, then your intelligence can be purged of the lower modes of material nature. And obviously, by hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, then you come to "tadā rajas-tamo-bhāvāḥ kāma-lobhādayaś ca ye ceta etair anāviddhaṁ sthitaṁ sattve prasīdati." (SB 1.2.19).This also indicates the diminishment of the lower modes of material nature in the mind and the intellect by hearing. So, it is an instrument. You're accompanied by that when you leave the present physical body. You have a present physical body. But it's just like if you're standing on a bridge looking at your smartphone, and you drop it off the bridge into the ravine, you know, really, you're not that upset because you backed it all up. And all you have to do is just go get new hardware. Just buy a new one, and it's already there in the cloud. So, the manas, the buddhi, and ahaṅkāra—these are the three elements of what Patañjali Muni calls the cetaḥ. We say ceto-darpana-mārjanam. It's actually three instruments in one, which is what sometimes we just say, the mind. Western science doesn't really distinguish that much between the mind and the intellect, but there is a difference. According to Sāṅkhya philosophy, each one has a different function, as described. You can read about it in the Third Canto of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Kapila-deva teaching Devahūti. And therefore Kṛṣṇa says, "Purify it, fortify it." He's saying it again. It's a military statement, almost: "evaṁ buddheḥ paraṁ buddhvā, saṁstabhyātmānam ātmanā, jahi śatruṁ mahā-bāho." (BG 3.43) "Stand up and fight, Arjuna!" Make your intelligence strong. Don't get faked out by all the misinformation that comes into the senses from information affected by the lower modes of nature." And you can do that by reading Bhagavad-gītā every day. https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/1/2/19/ https://vedabase.io/en/library/bg/3/43/ ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

“O King, as I repeatedly recall this wondrous and holy dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna, I take pleasure, being thrilled at every moment.” (Sanjaya, Bhagavad-gita, 18.76)

Unlike rules-based teachings prevalent in both modern and ancient texts, Vedic teachings are renowned for not prescribing commandments or rigid “rules.” Instead, Veda offer timeless wisdom through lessons that we can interpret and apply according to our level of consciousness.One of the core Vedic teachings, The Mahabharata, contains a specific set of chapters known as the Bhagavad Gita — the Song of God. Within these chapters lies a profound teaching distilled into just five words that, if fully understood and implemented, have the power to end our suffering.In English, these words are: “Established in Being, perform action.”In this episode, Thom unpacks the meaning and transformative impact of this teaching. He also shares the technique that enables all of us to integrate this wisdom into our daily lives.If you'd like to dive deeper into the Bhagavad Gita, we invite you to take a look at Thom's Exploring the Bhagavad Gita series of courses. These engaging and lively courses examine how the ancient and profound lessons of the Bhagavad Gita can be applied to modern life. You can find out more at https://thomknoles.com/bhagavad-gita/,Episode Highlights[00:45] The God Song[03:34] Mahabharata[05:29] Pandavas and Kauravas[08:12] Krishna's Choice: Army or Advisor/Charioteer?[09:47] Arjuna's Dilemma[13:09] Go Beyond All Relativity, Perform Action[16:29] How to Solve All Problems[19:11] Brahman Saṃsparsash: The Kiss of Totality[22:12] The Universe Having a Human ExperienceUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Bhagavad Gita Ch. 11 “Yoga of the Vision of the Universal Form” Verses 41, 42, & 43 The lecture discusses Arjuna's remorse for not recognizing Krishna as the Supreme Being and his regrets that he may have mistreated him by addressing him as a friend or as a Yadav, not realizing his greatness.

And today, I thought of this because of going to Śrīla Bhakti Siddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura's Bhajana Kuṭīra. And it's on a hill, which is the sand dune. There's a pastime around that also. But thinking of Śrīla Bhakti Siddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura, and we'll talk about it more when we go there today, he advocated humility. "Tṛṇād api sunīcena taror api sahiṣṇunā amāninā mānadena kīrtanīyaḥ sadā Hariḥ." It's easy enough to roll off my tongue and say, "Yeah, I already know that verse," but how much have I applied it? One of the teachings of the Bṛhat Bhāgavatāmṛta is that there's no possibility for bhakti to arise within the heart of a devotee unless there's dainya or utter humility. Or the concept is that bhakti and dainya go together; they are co-dependents. In other words, someone may say "I have developed pure love for God," but if there's no humility, then that's a farce because they go together - dainya, utter humility. It is also one of the points that Caitanya Mahāprabhu makes again in the Madhya-līlā, in the same section, when he's talking about bhāva, the symptoms of one whose heart is becoming softened by the practice of devotional service. He mentions there that such a person feels paradoxically less and less qualified as he or she becomes more qualified. The more qualified one becomes, the less qualified one considers oneself. And it doesn't mean that the devotee becomes dysfunctional. Prabhupāda talks about that in his prayers called Vṛndāvana-bhajana before he came to America. He was talking about Arjuna as a great warrior, and he said that Vaiṣṇavas, they don't shrink from their duties in the world, even if they're called to go to battle. They'll stand courageously and fight to do their duty. So it's not that they become morose and think, "What is the term I'm thinking of? They lose self-esteem, they lack self-esteem, and think, 'I can't do anything, and nobody likes me anyway,'" that kind of thing. Nonetheless, there's this growing sense of being only useful when engaged in devotional service of the Lord and fully surrendered to the Lord's will and doing everything according to the direction of the Lord. I mentioned it in the context of us going to see Śrīla Bhakti Siddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura's temple today because it's one of the principles that he emphasized again and again. It's such a simple principle that one might miss it and think, "Yeah, I've heard that before," but revisiting it again and again, in the mood in which Caitanya Mahāprabhu says to keep oneself in that position of humility, is one of the foundational principles of devotional service, and it's something to be cultivated.

We've all – hopefully – experienced what it's like to fall into a sense of flow. It's when everything happens easily.

Bhagavad Gita Ch. 11 “Yoga of the Vision of the Universal Form” Verses 31 through 36 The lecture discusses Arjuna's reckoning that the supreme self he is witnessing in the cosmic form is the Lord of Lords. Evil runs away in fear when his presence is felt, and the sages praise his glory. Lord Krishna advises Arjuna to become the instrument of the supreme and enjoy the credit as everything is already done by him, whether we take part in it or not.
