wisdom begets wisdom.

lord Krishna and Arjuna.

Shree Bhagavaan uvaacha:
idam tu te guhyatamam pravakshyaamyanasooyave |
jnyaanam vijnyaanasahitam yajnyaatvaa mokshayaseshubhaat || 1 ||

Translation: Shree Bhagavaan said:
So, to you who is without fault, I will explain, this extremely secret knowledge along with wisdom, having known which, you will be liberated from the inauspicious.

Shri Krishna uses this chapter to progress the theme of the seventh chapter, which was the infinite nature of Ishvara and the finite nature of maaya. He begins the chapter by asserting that the knowledge of Ishvara’s infinite nature will result in liberation. He addresses Arjuna as “anasooya” which means without fault, doubt or prejudice, indicating that those who have begun the process of purification of their minds.

To begin with,i would like to make it very clear that we are not merely bodies with calcium in our bones,oxygen in our brains and red tissues of the heart,but we are cosmos in our own soul with undying existence and ever-lasting experiences.We are passionately self consumed and ego centric,but still sought wisdom after certain rarities in the world and our life journey is inspired by follies.

in terms of a common inhabitant,wisdom literally mean “attainment of enough knowledge” to call call oneself “experienced” and “experimental”to have explored life.”wisdom at heart” to me truly mean emotion in this world of commotion.

The above stated introspection from Bhagwad Geeta preludes my piece.

I would keep my piece very subtle by adding few,but substantial conversations between lord Krishna and Arjuna.I aim to induce some wisdom that speaks through my piece and coronate yourself in the end by attaining wisdom via a religious connotation given to this,because “Gita” states the ultimate truth and purpose of life.

shree Krishna.

There are three gates leading to the hell of self-destruction for the soul — lust, anger, and greed. Therefore, all should abandon these three. -16.21

We can smoothly cause haywire in anybody`s life we wish,because the quality of mercey is strained.we lust to be a substantial asset,we lust to be mattered nd by dawn we lust to be noticed and remembered.The “lust’s” i stated above let alone be in good intentions and let your actions culminate in wisdom.So “love”(notice the substitution of lust by love) to be a substantial asset of your own parents,love to be noticed by being a pioneer of noble things.Anger and hate is the outflow of trivial emotions that amounts to crises and fading humanity and humility.Material affluence has spoiled our normal way of living and has uplifted greed to heights and has taken away our natural ability to exchange thoughts and things for a good cause.

Everyone must engage in some sort of activity in this material world. But actions can either bind one to this world or liberate one from it. By acting for the pleasure of the Supreme, without selfish motives, one can be liberated from karma-chapter 3

your actions speaks louder than words so whatever you wish,do it whole heartedly like an altruist or don’t do it at all.As far as sweet outcomes and big achievements are concerned,your drive should be only to reach the level of self actualization,because one day after achieving everything we would still question ourselves “Where now” or rather “What now”.

It is better to strive in ones own dharma than to succeed in the dharma of another.Nothing is ever lost in following one’s own dharma,but competition in another dharma breeds fear and insecurity-18.47

Dharma and maya were synonymous once upon a time because “power of love override love for power”Blasphemy is popularly prevalent and in ease we welcome strange aliens from “some planet” but cannot provide basic shelter and food to homeless immigrants from another country.We can let rape and wars take place in the name of religion and see every Muslim family a threat to our neighborhood and subject them to “murderer” and “treason”.In reprisal the entire world is drowning in global terrorism simply because we all got into the competition of expanding our “dharma” for security but in contrary it did breed fear.

I would end it on a very simple note,attain wisdom when your virtues are pure and be peaceful and spread humanity,only then will we be able to regain some empathy and wisdom in our heart and pray everyday to change yorself.
