Gita reflection Ch 10 verses 9 & 10

25th July 2024


Let us take the example of a dream. Who is responsible for the tragedies and comedies that happen in it? It is our own mind playing, and there is no one other than it. It plays both as a hero and a villain.

Similarly, when we understand that the world is the projection on Brahman by Maya, the wise person watches it like a dream, but stays fully awake!

Lord Krishna makes this point clear about the men of wisdom. 'With minds fixed on Me, with their lives fully dedicated to Me, the wise ones enlighten each other by speaking about Me and gaining full contentment and happiness.'

Due to the absence of love and hatred, likes and dislikes, fear and favor, such wise ones will reach the Lord after death or realize the nature of Brahman even while living in this world. For them, there is no more rebirth.
