40 minutes…
Please understand man of noble birth should not support this kind of support…4th it is not divine. 5th it will not lead to expansion. The essence of the whole Bhagavad Gita is over in this one sutra. The purpose of the whole Bhagavad Gita is to get Arjuna out of depression, getting him to centre and balance out of depression. Bhagawan’s main work was this. that is why he says how have you obtained depression of mind. He is not talking about anything else.
Let’s listen to the next verse
3rd verse 2nd chapter
Shree Bhagawan Uvacha Klaiyambha …parthanai tatvai upapathyathe kshudram hrudaya daurbalyam tyatva uttishta parantapa
The translation – do not yield to fear Partha it does not befit you drop this faint heartedness & stand up oh destroyer of enemies!
Krishna is reminding Arjuna 2 things in this verse – 1. Son of Krita – he is reminding the glory of his father – you know your father don’t you need to stand up to the level of your father. Then he reminds him Paranthapa one of the names of Arjuna – Oh destroyer of enemy! Means he is using exact right word what he is doing is not right. He says do not yield to fear Partha it does not befit you drop this faint heartedness & stand up oh destroyer of enemies! (repeats verse)
Krishna is saying do not yield to fear Partha. Do you know your father…it does not befit you drop this faint heartedness and stand up oh destroyer of enemies. Understand each word is used with a purpose, with a meaning. One guy goes to the father and says – Father should I become a heart specialist or dentist which subject should I study. Son asks why? Father says we have only one heart. But 32 teeth!
Each decision has its own reason. Here Krishna …which is more than Arjuna means raising Arjuna. But Arjuna is always using the words which is less than Krishna means bringing him down to his level.
Do not yield to fear Partha it does not befit you drop this faint heartedness & stand up oh destroyer of enemies!
The moment Krishna opens his mouth he is addressing only depression. He is not beating around the b ush. He is straight coming to the subject.t Arjuna was going round and round and beating around the bush. But Krishna is straight. He says what he wants.
Klaiyambha …parthanai tatvai upapathyathe kshudram hrudaya daurbalyam tyatva uttishta parantapa
Partha, don’t yield t fear. He is telling very clearly. It is not your expression. Drop this fain heartedness, stand up oh destroyer of eneimes. He is reminding Arjuna his glory, his true expression. Today I will end with this introduction because I watned to continue on this sutras with a detailed expressions in the further satsangs. Let us go for the kriya today’s kriya.
