Gita reflection Ch 18 verses 57 & 58

23rd December 2024


The main purpose of Lord Krishna's conversation with Arjuna is to clarify Arjuna's confusion regarding his duty as a warrior. This message resonates with all of us. 

We should seek to understand and be inspired by the ultimate goal of life, which is liberation, while also fulfilling our immediate responsibilities without attachment or aversion.

Lord Krishna advises Arjuna to mentally surrender all actions to Him by recognizing Him as the supreme being. He instructs Arjuna to keep his mind consistently focused on Him through concentrated thought. 

When our minds are fixed on God, we can be assured of receiving His grace to overcome any obstacles. 

However, if we allow our sense of ego to distract us from this focus, we limit our potential for freedom and hinder our spiritual progress.
