Gita reflection Ch 15 verses 9 & 10

24th October 2024


The dreamer experiences the dream world solely through the subtle body, without using the physical senses to perceive dream objects. 

Similarly, when experiencing the objects of the physical world, the soul only utilizes the subtle body. The external senses, such as the eyes, serve as a means to interact with gross objects.

The difference between a person of wisdom and an ignorant one during worldly experiences and while living in the body lies in their perception. 

Those ignorant of the Self believe that the body, senses, and mind independently experience the world's objects. 

On the other hand, a person of wisdom clearly recognizes that the presence of the Self presides over every experience and every action.
