Gita reflection Ch 15 verses 19 & 20

29th October 2024


Once, Sri Ramana Maharshi was asked the following question: "You are guiding us to inquire into the source of the 'I' thought, which is internal. How will that help us to obtain liberation?" 

Maharshi answered, "When you know the source of 'I', you will know the source of this Universe, Ishwara. Realization of the Self is the realization of God. There is no difference. And knowing everything as Him, you will suffer no bondage anymore!"

In the penultimate verse of this chapter, Lord Krishna says, "One who is free from delusion, knows Me as the supreme Person, will be all-knowing and adore Me with his whole being."

The secret and sacred Self has been explained by the Lord Himself. Knowing this, one becomes wise, and his life stands completely fulfilled.
