ār keno māyā-jāle poḍitecho, jīva-mīn

nāhi jāno baddha ho'ye ro'be tumi ciro-din

(2)

ati tuccha bhoga-āśe, bandī ho'ye māyā-pāśe

rohile vikṛta-bhāve danḍya jathā parādhīn

(3)

ekhona bhakati-bale, kṛṣṇa-prema-sindhu-jale

krīḍā kori' anāyāse thāko tumi kṛṣṇaādhīna

TRANSLATION

1) O fish like soul, why have you fallen into the entangling nets of Maya? You have not understood that being bound up by those nets you will have to remain in this material world for a long, long time.

2) After becoming captive in Maya's snare due to your desires for insignificant enjoyments, you remain transformed in a spiritually diseased condition, punishable just like a disobedient servant.

3) Now, by the power of devotional service, always remain subservient to Lord Krsna, swimming and frolicking freely in the nectarine ocean of Krsna-prema.

Do or Die!

Posted by dinesh

Dishonor is worse than death.4a person with reputation,dishonor is
worse than dying.Arjuna was a great military general:MahaRatha means
1who can fight with 1000s of men alone.If Arjuna leaves d battle,all
other generals will consider he left d battle field out of Fear
only&not on compassion4d opponents.So LordKrsna said it was
better4Arjuna2die than2Run away from fighting.Arjuna once defeated
Lord Shiva&having pleased Him,LordShiva gave pasupata astra-a weapon.
So Arjuna was so famous4his victory.LordKrsna advised2engage in
violence4d right cause.Violence is also required@times2set

A Great Leader,Gandhi started non-violence movement & used BhagavadGita 2 support it. How contrasting it is?

Posted by dinesh

Sometimes fighting is sinful&sometimes it's punyam-pious,based on d
time,circumstance&on whose order it's done.1great leader started
non-violence movement,he
wanted2prove non-violence from BG.Every1takes advantage of BG2Support
their own views.But Krsna wanted Arjuna2fight(violence) or better die
if not.
