On Bhagavad Gita (32)
Swami Bhoomananda Tirtha
31 | On Bhagavad Gita | Discover the non-doership within you and be free
The renunciation Krishna enjoins is not at all gross or external. It is only in the mind and intelligence, effected by themselves. Consider all activities as offering to the Teacher. Once all actions stand offered to the Teacher, what can survive to cause ownership or possessiveness? Through renunciation or offering, the whole actions get away from the actor, the one who does them.

30 | On Bhagavad Gita | Loka-sangraha – Ensuring well-being of the world
Ordinary ignorant people do their work very vibrantly, but with delusional clinging to the results of what they do. The Knowers should also likewise do all activities with full concern and attention, but without any delusional clinging at all. Instead of clinging, what they should zealously foster is the concern called lokasangraha.

28 | On Bhagavad Gita | Limbs of the Cosmic Yajna Cycle
Neither matter nor energy is sentient and hence both cannot give rise to any idea, thought or design. At the same time, the whole creation is full of designs, sequences, orders, rhythms, cycles and the like. All these are possible only because of a Master source of creative intelligence, which has the supreme potential to create, uncreate and also to bring about change in the created.

26 | On Bhagavad Gita | Render every act as Yajna
All actions done by us will have to be as Yajña. How to do so? Do everything but without any delusional clinging (saṅga) to the inner psycho-intellectual outcome it brings about. Every act is done aiming to achieve a certain fruition. If such fruition is had or not, the performer’s mind should feel no delusional clinging to what transpires. It is clinging that hinders Yajña. Whatever act is done without clinging verily becomes sacrifice.

25 | On Bhagavad Gita | Samatva – the essence of Bhagavad Gita
Take away from your mind, O Arjuna, all sense of difference about the spiritual pursuit. It is the mind and intelligence that work in both cases. In Jñāna-niṣṭhā, they become very specific and exclusive. And in Karma-niṣṭhā, their application is broad, including all activities of worldly life. So, remove even the least sense of difference between the two niṣṭhās. For, they have the same emphasis as well as goal. Each will take the seeker to the same spiritual goal of inner fullness, abundance and ecstasy.

24 | On Bhagavad Gita | Experiencing Brahma-nirvana
Do not animals and birds live? Do they have desires like humans have? What about plants, trees and creepers? You cannot attribute desires to them. All of them live; their lineages also continue. They never indulge in desires. Learn the lesson from them and live, move and pursue the natural course of life joyfully, harmoniously, in a fulfilling manner.

17 | On Bhagavad Gita | How to attain dexterity in action?
Does not viveka, therefore, demand that between the short-living and everlasting goals, the discreet mind should choose the everlasting, not the short-living? Is not then one courting inferiority, downfall, if he refuses to accept buddhi-yoga and prefers to stick to the elusive path of desire-based ritualistic and secular actions?

15 | On Bhagavad Gita | Act fervently but without Sanga
Gita does not deal with the objective results of actions at all, where the rules and laws of the objective world prevail. Krishna, as well as Vedanta, speaks only about spirituality, the science of inner mind, intelligence and Self. Possession, dispossession, delusion, clarity, enlightenment, etc. are concepts that relate to the inner personality of the human.

14 | On Bhagavad Gita | Be an Ātmavān – Self-integrated
True seeker should be given to self-restraint, self-regulation and self-harmony. Mind should be under the sovereign, sublime guidance of intelligence. Intelligence should relentlessly reflect upon the blissful Self. This kind of inner attunement and steadfastness in it, makes one verily an Ātmavān.

13 | On Bhagavad Gita | Buddhi-Yoga: Spiritual pursuit through activity
The influence intelligence sheds in the mind is marvellous, subtle and deep. Mind can be acted upon by intelligence alone. That is why Krishna highlights buddhi, intelligence, and says it has to become clear, stable and resolute.

12 | On Bhagavad Gita | A beautiful formula to be a master of the world
Fostering equality and impartiality towards sukha and duhkha alike is the only option for the wise, to live in this world and move forward steadily and gloriously. Every time you do so, you become more and more spiritual, sublime and expansive. The practice is in the mind, guided by intelligence. But, the benefits are to one’s life as a whole.

11 | On Bhagavad Gita | Spirituality is not disconnected to life
True spiritual wisdom as well as the instructions on its basis, is not detached from the facts and truths of our life and its purpose. Spirituality as a science and direct experience is in full harmony with one’s life and seeking, to fulfil his ultimate needs and compulsions.

10 | On Bhagavad Gita | Knowledge of Self dissolves all grief
In the body of all, the indwelling ‘I’, the Self, is always unkillable. Know that all beings have equally the same single Self, which cannot be acted upon by anything whatever. Therefore, you do not deserve to grieve at all, thinking of death and what death brings about.

4 | On Bhagavad Gita | Bhagavad Gita, the Universal Message
Immortality, moksha, is the goal of human life, especially of a seeker. For, he always aims at freedom (moksha). What is freedom? It is certainly not the physical freedom from anything. The freedom or moksha the seeker aims at is ‘inner’. It is freedom from the shackles our mind and intelligence seemingly impose.

3 | On Bhagavad Gita | With Equanimity float in the Sukha-duhkha world
All the interactions senses have with the world objects do bring about only the sukha-duhkha dvandvas, nothing more or different. When you are able to meet and dissolve the sukha-duhkhas, you can deal with the world as a whole, in full. Is this not a clear, inner victory over the world?
