Sanjaya said:

1. To him who was thus overcome with pity and who was despondent, with eyes full of tears and agitated, Krishna or Madhusudana (the destroyer of Madhu), spoke these words.

 

श्रीभगवानुवाच

कुतस्त्वा कश्मलमिदं विषमे समुपस्थितम् ।

अनार्यजुष्टमस्वर्ग्यम् अकीर्तिकरमर्जुन ॥ २-२॥ 

Śhrī Bhagavān uvācha

The Blessed Lord said:

2. Whence is this perilous strait (difficult situation) come upon thee, this dejection which is unworthy of thee, disgraceful, and which will close the gates of heaven upon thee, O Arjuna? 

 

क्लैब्यं मा स्म गमः पार्थ नैतत्त्वय्युपपद्यते ।

क्षुद्रं हृदयदौर्बल्यं त्यक्त्वोत्तिष्ठ परन्तप ॥ २-३॥

Paartha… O Arjuna, son of Pritha!;  Klaibyam maa sma gamah… Yield not to impotence; etat… this; na upadyate… does not befit thee; twayi…of you; parantapa… O scorcher of foes; tyakta…(cast off) give up; Kshudram hridaya daurbalyam… mean weakness of the heart; uttishtha… Stand up.

Chapter 7 Summary of Seventh Discourse By Swami Sivananda (Jnana Yoga) - The Yoga of Wisdom and Realization

  SRIMAD BHAGAVADGITA SVADHYAYA   Chapter 7 – The Yoga of Wisdom and Realization (Jnana Yoga) Summary of Seventh Discourse By Swami Sivananda   Sri Krishna tells Arjuna that the supreme Godhead has to be realized in both its transcendent and immanent aspects. The Yogi who has reached this summit has nothing more to know. This complete union with the Lord is difficult of attainment. Among many thousands of human beings, very few aspire for this union, and even among those who aspire for it, few ever reach the pinnacle of spiritual realization. The Lord has already given a clear description of the all-pervading static and infinite state of His. Now He proceeds to explain His manifestations as the universe and the power behind it. He speaks of these manifestations as His lower and higher Prakriti. The lower Prakriti is made up of the five elements, mind, ego and intellect. The higher Prakriti is the life-element which upholds the universe, activates it and caus...

But, the Yogi who strives with assiduity, purified of sins and perfected gradually through many births, reaches the highest goal.   Commentary: He gains experiences little by little in the course of many births and eventually attains to perfection.   Then he gets the knowledge of the Self and attains to the final beatitude of life.   Commentary by Swami Venkatesananda:   ‘Eternal damnation’ is a childish idea. If it is found in some scriptures, it is used only as a figure of speech – a hyperbole. It is meant to ‘frighten’ immature s...
