कच्चिदेतच्छ्रुतं पार्थ त्वयैकाग्रेण चेतसा ।
कच्चिदज्ञानसम्मोहः प्रनष्टस्ते धनञ्जय

tvayaikāgreṇa cetasā kaccid ajñāna-
saṁmohaḥ praṇaṣṭaste dhanañjaya
O Pārtha, did you listen to this with
single-minded attention? Has your
delusion born of ignorance been
completely destroyed, Dhanañjaya?
POWERFUL COGNITION
Whoever studies this sacred conversation will achieve His eternal consciousness.
KRISHNA BLESSES
THE WHOLE
UNIVERSE WITH HIS
GRACE AND
COMPASSION
Only one who is in deep devotion to
Me should read this. I have
conveyed here that which is most
beneficial, the secret of how to live
and how to reach Me. One who
understands this and drops his mind
with his focus entirely upon Me,
shall reach Me without a doubt. This
is Kṛṣṇa's promise.
He blesses the whole Universe with
His grace and compassion. He
showered His blessing on Arjuna
and made him merge with Him. The
same consciousness is being
showered on the whole Universe.
He declares that whoever studies
this sacred conversation will achieve
His eternal consciousness. He blesses
us with His grace and assures us that
we can achieve Him through this
jñāna yajña, sacrifice of intellect.
That is, by offering ourselves into
that knowledge, by completely
purifying ourselves in that
knowledge, we can achieve Him.
We can disappear into Him. When
we put anything into the fire, it
disappears. In the same way, when
we immerse ourselves in the study
of Gītā, we will not remain as we
are. We will disappear into Him.
Only He remains, only He exists.
The whole experience of the Truth has descended on Arjuna. Kṛṣṇa's blessings are upon us also. Let us pray to the ultimate consciousness to put us into that same energy. Relax into that energy. May the grace and compassion of Kṛṣṇa that was showered on Arjuna, be showered on us. Earlier Kṛṣṇa said that He would appear again and again whenever He is needed to restore equilibrium between good and bad.
He is the only great Master who has the courage to say, ‘I am not the last Master, it is not that there will be no one after Me.’ Instead He says, ‘I shall appear again and again, sambhavāmi yuge yuge.
Kṛṣṇa will not reappear in His Vāsudeva Kṛṣṇa form with peacock feathers and a flute! That is the mistake we make in our assumption. His energy will reappear. He will reappear in the form of enlightened Masters and Incarnations, time and again. He will come again and again to restore the balance, liberate the good and destroy the evil.
This is the last time Śrī Kṛṣṇa speaks
in the Bhagavad Gītā. He asks,
‘Arjuna, have you listened to Me
with attention? Has your delusion
disappeared?’ Until the end He is
the teacher. He is full of
compassion. His concern is only for
Arjuna and the rest of humanity.
‘Have you understood?’ He asks.
‘Have your doubts disappeared? Do
you need anything more?’
This is the greatness of
Masters. Nothing concerns
them except the deliverance
of their disciples. That is why
they have come here.
Otherwise why should they
waste their time on planet
Earth? They can be immersed
in the blissful energy that they
are part of without
disturbance.
My disciples understand when I
tell them that the only time I
feel anything like sadness is
when a disciple leaves me. It
saddens me because he is losing
a great opportunity. His spirit
brought him to me for
completion. If the body-mind
does not cooperate, the spirit
must live again and again until it
gets the opportunity to be
liberated. Each cycle of birth that
the spirit undertakes, it suffers
and regrets not having taken that
final step..
No one who has crossed my
ashram gates can ever leave me.
Even if they leave, I shall not
leave them. I shall be with them.
That one moment of intelligence
that brought them in is enough
for me to care for them. Those
who have understood the
formless form that resides in Me
know that I am part of them.
Wherever they are, I am part of
them.
This is Śrī Kṛṣṇa's promise: Listen
to Me, understand Me and come
to Me; then you are a part of Me.
