After hearing the divine words of Krishna, preserved for us in the Bhagavadgita, Arjuna’s delusion was destroyed. He regained his clarity and resolve through Krishna’s grace. Arjuna stood firm, free from doubt, and promised to act according to Krishna’s words. Krishna returned their chariot to their position in the Pandava army. The battle was set to commence, with both armies positioned and fully equipped. They were clad in polished armor with their weapons drawn. Arjuna blew his conch shell…

Chapter 17: The Yoga of the Three Kinds of Faith

Krishna says, “Every being is born with innate faith, which is of three kinds: sattva-goodness, rajas-passion, and tamas-ignorance. The sattvic worship the Gods, the rajasic worship the demons (rakshasas) and the tamasic worship the ghosts/spirits. The food which is dear to each is of three types, as also ceremonies, austerity and almsgiving. Foods which increase life span, health, strength, happiness and…

Chapter 18: The Yoga of Liberation by Renunciation

Krishna says, “The learned ones say that sannyasa is giving up actions motivated by desire. The wise ones say that giving up the fruits of your actions is tyaga. Some say all actions should be abandoned. Others say ceremonies, charity and austerity should never be abandoned. These activities should be performed without…

Chapter 13: The Field & the Knower of the Field 

Krishna says, “The field is much more than your physical body. It includes the great elements*, egoism, intellect and unmanifested nature, your ten senses*, your mind and the five objects of the senses*. Also desire, hatred, pleasure, pain, your body, fortitude and intelligence. Knowledge includes humility, freedom from hypocrisy, non-violence, forgiveness, uprightness…”

Chapter 14: The Three Gunas

Krishna expounds the profound science of the three qualities which constitute the fabric of all living beings and nature. Sattva is luminous, pure and tranquil.

It clouds discernment, giving rise to inertia, laziness and…

Arjuna asks, “O Krishna, you praise renunciation-of-actions and also performance-of-actions. Tell me conclusively which is the better of the two.” Krishna says: “Renunciation-of-action and performance-of-action both lead to the highest bliss. But of the two, performance-of-action is superior to renunciation-of-action. He who neither hates nor desires should be known as of eternal renunciation. He who is not subject to the pairs of opposites is easily set free from bondage. The wise don’t say that…
