From BhagavadGita,1.V must learn Wat God is,2.Wat d Living
Entities(we) r,3.Wat nature is,4.How it is ctrld by Time,5.Wat d
activities of d Living Entities r.
What is God? God by definition must've d qualities such as 1.Knowledge
2.Wealth
3.Power
4.Beauty
5.Fame
6.Renunciation
All4 100%.God cant b manufactured.God remains God@all times.Not that,a
man by yoga practice becomes God.God is d
SupremeController&NeverControlled.Nature&d LivingEntities r ctrld by
Him.
Wat is Nature?
There is no reason not2believe in God.But there is every reason2do
so.Everything is created by some1.V never heard of any machine coming
by chance.If so,is it not foolish2think that D Stars,d Sky,d Sun,d
Moon,d Earth came in2existence by chance.BigBang theory is
BlindFaith,not Belief in God
Wat r Living Entities
1.Souls In quality1with God but not in quantity.
2.Individually conscious(eg.I cant feel d pain in ur body but only in
mine).But God is supremely conscious.
3.Influenced by 3modes Goodness,Passion,Ignorance.
4.Bound by d reactions of his actions birth after birth in different bodies.
Wat r d activities of Living Entity? Primarily engaged in d animal pursuits of
1.Eating
2.Sleeping
3.Mating
4.Defending
Without inquiring what d purpose of Human Life is? Humanity begins
with this inquiry,Where I came from? Why am I suffering? Where will I
go after death.How2make solution2all suffering?
Wat is Time?
The actions r performed by d Living Entity with reference2d time.The
Living Entity does not know d time factor in which he is carried away
in life,just as clouds getting carried away by strong winds. D
reactions of actions r time framed,some r in Fructifying stage,while
others r yet2come.
"My Body" means Im different from this body.So There's some1who
possess d body.(Soul)He's d real self."Some look on d Soul as
amazing,some describe him as amazing,some hear of him as amazing,while
others even after hearing abt him cant understand him@all.Soul can
never b killed.So Not2grieve4any1"-BG:2.29
"Being desirous of sense enjoyment&opulent(rich) life they say that
there is nothing more than this! In d minds of those who r too
attached2sense enjoyment&wealth,d resolute determination4devotional
service2d SupremeLord doesnt take place"-Lord Sri Krsna in
BhagavadGita:2.43
According2Vedic injunctions there r 6kinds of Aggressors who can b
killed@once without incurring sin.
1.A poison giver 2.One who sets fire2dHouse 3.One who attacks with
deadly weapons. 4.One who plunders riches 5.One who occupies another's
land 6.One who kidnaps another's wife.
In d MaterialWorld,1 who is unaffected by whatever good r evil he may
obtain,neither praising it nor despising it,is firmly fixed in
PerfectKnowledge.1 who is able2withdraw his Senses from d
SenseObjects,just as d tortoise draws its limbs within d shell,is
firmly fixed in PerfectConsciousness.-BG:2.57-58

1.Action,2.Food,3.Sacrifices,4.Austerity,5.Charity,all these fall
under different modes such as goodness,passion,ignorance. Action in
1.Goodness-appears like poison in d beginning but nectar in d
end.eg.studying4exams 2.Passion appears nectar initially but poison
later.3.Ignorance-miserable@all times-BG
"The non-permanent appearance of happiness&distress&their
disappearance in due course is like d summer&winter seasons.They arise
from sense perception.1 must learn2tolerate them without being
disturbed.A person who isnt disturbed by
happiness&distress&steady@both is certainly eligible4liberation"-BG2
As a person puts on new garments giving up older1s d Soul similarly
accepts new material body,giving up old&useless1s.d Soul can never b
cut in2pieces by any weapon,nor burnt by fire,nor moistened by
water,nor withered by d wind.Soul is
unbreakable&insoluble,unchangeable,immovable&eternally d same-BG2.13
"How've these impurities come upon u. They r not@all befitting a man
who knows d valueOfLife. They lead not2higher planets but2infamy.Do
not yield2this degrading impotence.It doesnt bcome u. Give up such
petty weakness&arise O chastiser of enemy"-Krsna2Arjuna in
BhagavadGita:Chapter 2
While speaking learned words u r mourning4what is not worthy of
grief.Those who r wise lament,neither4d Living nor4d dead.Never was
there a time v didnt exist nor in d future shall any of us cease2be.As
d embodied Soul passes from boyhood2youth2old age,d Soul similarly
passes in2another body@death",BG2.11
A Person who is not disturbed by d incessant flow of desires that
enter like Rivers in2d Ocean which is ever being filled but always
remain still(Ocean unagitated even during rainy reason),can alone
achieve LastingPeace¬ he who Strives2Satisfy such
Desires-LordSriKrsna In BhagavadGita (SongOfGod) 2.70
"Now I am confused abt my duty&ve lost all composure bcoz of this
miserly weakness.In this condition I am asking U2tell me4certain what
is best4me.Now I am Ur disciple&a Soul surrendered unto You.Pls
instruct me! I can find no means2drive away this grief which is drying
up my senses"-Arjuna2Krsna,BG:2.7
When d embodied living being ctrls his nature&mentally renounces all
actions,he happily resides in the City Of Nine Gates(d material
body)&he is free from bodily activities-Bhagavad Gita

D Foolish cant understand how a LivingEntity quits his Body,What form
of Body he's going2take in next Life,not even why is he living in d
PresentBody.But1who is trained in SpiritualKnowledge can c all this&is
Fortunate.Those that r always fooled by lust&desire lose all
power2understand this Truth-BG:15.10
D LivingEntity in d MaterialWorld carries his different conception of

takes1kindOfBody&again quits it2take another kind of body(not
necessarily human)&obtains a certain type of
Ear,Eye,Tongue,Nose&SenseOfTouch which r grouped abt d Mind-BG:15.8-9
Other than our uncontrolled&misguided mind,there is no Greater Enemy
within d World. But d best of friends when in control-Bhagavad Gita
He who sees everything in relation2dSupremeLord&who sees all
LivingEntities as His parts&parcels&who sees d SupremeLord within
everything never hates anything or any being.But1cannot c properly
unless1has heard frm a SuperiorSource&d HighestSource is d VedicWisdom
which is spoken by d LordHimself-Isopshd

says,"D sages knowing Me as d ultimate Beneficiary of all
Sacrifices&Austerities,d Supreme Lord of all d Planets&Demigods& d
Benefactor&Well-Wisher of all d Living Entities attain Peace from d
great pain of material miseries"-BG:5.29
Whatever state of being one remembers when 1 quits d body,that state 1
will attain without fail-BG:8.6.Those that learn the art of dying
conquer death&attain immortality by reunion with God in His world
while others defying d supremacy of d Lord check their lives birth
after birth in different bodies.
A prayer2dLord,I know no one but You as my Lord&U shall remain so even
if u handle me roughly by Ur embrace or make me broken hearted by not
being present before me. U r completely free2do anything&everything
becoz U r always my worshipful Lord
unconditionally-LordChaitanya,Sikshastakam Verse 8.
When one is consumed by the sorrows of life,3 things give him
relief;offspring,a wife and the company of Lord's
devotees-ChanakyaPandit.
Charity performed expecting some return or with desire4fruitive
results(such as heaven) or in a grudging mood is Charity in d mode of
passion.Charity @ impure place,@improper time,2 unworthy
persons,without proper attention&respect is Charity in
Ignorance.Charity in Goodness is recommended-BG.17.22-23
A person who sees action in inaction&inaction in action is really in
knowledge.Even d learned r confused abt what action is&what inaction
is.There r 3 types of action.1.Karma-prescribed duties as given in d
Vedas 2.Vikarma-wrong actions(against
VedicCommands)3.Akarma-actions4which there is no reaction-BG
Austerity of d body consists in d worship of d SupremeLord,d
Brahmanas,d SpiritualMaster&superiors like d father&mother&in

NitaiGauranga:
Out of fear of the Supreme Lord, the wind blows, the sun distributes
its heat, and death chases everyone.(Taittiriya Upanisad 2.8)
Food prepared >3hrs before being eaten,food that is
tasteless,decomposed&putrid & food consisting of remnants&untouchable
things is dear2those in d mode of darkness (ignorance) BG.17.10. At
times it is foolish2b wise where ignorance is bliss!

Fear is a dominating force in life. Fear of disease, failure,
disappointing others or economic ruin. Fear of enemies, thieves,
cheaters, or a multitude of other possibilities include doubt in one's
direction of life. But faith is the supreme personality of Godhead is
only way out.~The Journey Home, Radhanath Swami.. Hare Krsna..hav a
blessed day..
Either pure or impure, or having passed through all conditions of
material life, if one can remember the lotus-eyed Krishna, he becomes
externally and internally clean.

untimely death n is protected from all kinds of diseases. Have a krsna
