Gita reflection Ch 11 verses 48 & 49

4th September 2024


Why is it difficult for anyone to see the Lord's cosmic form? Although He is the Self of all beings and always available, He remains hidden. 

He can only be known through His grace when an individual turns their attention towards the Self and away from external distractions. 

The Lord cannot be perceived in the human world through the study of Vedas, sacrifices, gifts, rituals, or severe austerities. 

Lord Krishna consoled Arjuna and freed him from fear and bewilderment after showing His terrible form. He then transformed Himself back to His earlier, familiar form that Arjuna had known since birth.
