Bhagavad Gita Chapter 1 Verse 47 - Arjuna Gives Up

 Table of Content


 

The takeaway of Chapter 1 is the attachment.  The little spark that started in Arjuna's mind took him on a whirlpool and made him completely opposite of what his character was!!  In life, we need to be just aware of the situations that takes us to this state of attachment and Arjuna Disease!!  The moment we realize, we need to find a way out of it.

Direct Quote from Gurudev Swami Chinmayanda:

Be it an Individual or a Society, or a Community or a Nation, religion and Philosophy will be in demand only when the heart has come to experience the Arjuna - Grief.

I AM THAT - 48 - Awareness

  Awareness What is awareness? Awareness is a natural state—free from desires and fears. It is simply a condition of alertness and inner peace. However, this alertness and peace often become obscured by thoughts, desires, and fears. Most of the time, we remain caught in this mental clutter and rarely pause to look inward for awareness. Just as dirt on a dish dissolves when soaked in soapy water without scrubbing, a mind saturated with thoughts and emotions can become clear by sitting still and allowing positive thoughts to arise naturally. There’s no need to force positivity—when you try to control the mind, it always wins. Instead, let all thoughts and emotions flow freely. Observe them, and allow your inner Self to gently guide the mind toward positivity and awareness.

I AM THAT - 45 - What Comes and Goes has No Being

 What Comes and Goes has No Being True maturity lies in embracing silence. At the core, everything is made of the same essence—the universal raw material. There’s no need to strive to reach it; the task is simply to peel away the layers that hide the “Universalness” within.   Silence (both outside and inside)  sounds simple, yet it is one of the hardest states to attain. Selfless action paves the way to silence—working with what you have, without clinging to results, without craving recognition. In that silence, you gain the clarity to strip away impurities—desires, jealousy, anger, expectations—and uncover the universal reality inside. Remember, everything that happens—whether to you or others—arises from countless factors, and your role is just one among them. Expecting outcomes to match your imagination only breeds misery.  Therefore, what comes and goes is not permanent and essentially has no being.
