8.16
आब्रह्मभुवनाल्लोकाः पुनरावर्तिनोऽर्जुन ।
मामुपेत्य तु कौन्तेय पुनर्जन्म न विद्यते
॥ ८-१६॥
ā-brahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ
punarāvartinorjuna māmupetya tu
kaunteya punarjanma na vidyate
From the highest planet in the material world [brahmaloka] down to the lowest, all are places of misery wherein repeated birth and death take place. One who reaches My abode, O Kaunteya, is never reborn.
POWERFUL COGNITION
If we achieve one glimpse, it’s over. That one glimpse acts like a conscious torch, and guides us through these seven layers when we leave the body.
8.17
सहस्रयुगपर्यन्तमहर्यद् ब्रह्मणो विदुः ।
रात्रिं युगसहस्रान्तां तेऽहोरात्रविदो जनाः
॥ ८=१७॥
sahasrayuga-paryantam aharyad
brahmaṇo viduḥ rātriṃ yuga-
sahasrāntāṃ te'ho-rātravido janāḥ
By human calculation, a thousand
ages taken together is the duration
of Brahma's one day. His night is
just as long
POWERFUL COGNITION
One year for us is one day for the devatas, demigods. For Brahma, a thousand ages are taken as one day. Time is actually not chronological, but psychological. If we can stop the next thought from happening within our inner space, our kṣaṇas can be increased to any extent. It can extend to eternity.
४.१८
अव्यक्ताद् व्यक्तयः सर्वाः प्रभवन्त्यहरागमे ।
रात्र्यागमे प्रलीयन्ते तत्रैवाव्यक्तसंज्ञके
॥ ८=१८॥
avyaktād vyaktayaḥ sarvāḥ prabhavanty
aharāgame rātryāgame pralīyante
tatraivāvyakta-saṃjñake
From the unmanifest, all living entities
come into being at the beginning of
Brahma's day. With the coming of
Brahma's night, they dissolve into the
same unmanifest.
POWERFUL COGNITION
all living entities arise From the unmanifest, and dissolve into the same unmanifest.
INTRODUCTION
Now He says, ‘After attaining Me the great souls who are steeped in yoga never return to this temporary world, which is full of miseries, because they have attained the highest perfection.’ The understanding of this science, the very intellectual understanding, gives the inspiration to experience truth and naturally leads us to the ultimate Truth. Here Kṛṣṇa says, ‘If you achieve this state, you never come back.’ He inspires us; He persuades us to enter that state, to enter thoughtless awareness. The only job of an Enlightened Master is to make everyone realize the truth that he himself has experienced. That is the only aim. There is no ulterior motive or vested interest. People again and again look at an Enlightened Master with suspicion. They suspect foul play.
Understand one thing: A person
who remains at the inner source of
bliss never cares for anything
external. Please understand that he
does not need external sources of
happiness because he has something
more powerful. The inner guide is
so powerful that the being is always
blissful. That is the reason he does
not see the world as a collection of
miseries. You see, an enlightened
Master may not get food for days,
yet he is always blissful. Even in
such situations, the only things that
he experiences are gratitude and
compassion.
He is neither attached to
sorrow nor to happiness. He is
detached from both to the
same degree. He is always in a
state of gratitude to the
Universe. Worldly things do
not affect him. Happiness and
sorrow are not in his dictionary.
An enlightened Master looks at
misery and happiness with total
gratitude and surrender to the
Universe. Enlightened beings
are beyond happiness as you
understand it. They are not
attached to anything. They are
pure compassion.
