An Appeal about Bhagavatgeeta

An Appeal about Bhagavatgeeta

https://ramamohanraocheruku.blogspot.com/2017/02/anappeal-about-bhagavatgeeta.html

At the outset let me thank to all those who ‘In response to my yesterday's post expressed their like to read the posts’ on an ongoing basis. I endeavor to cater to their needs to the best of my ability though I know I am only a speck in the ocean. Among the responses I found Sri Hulikunte Sundara Ram's comments are to be shared. Hence I am doing it.

Hulikunte Sundara Ram: ‘ఆచరణ’: Yes, We read, we listen, we forget. If we can follow an atom of what comes to our knowledge, we can say we have done a great Job. I apeal to all readers to read Shri Cheruku Rama Mohan Rao's writings on the' గీతా ప్రాశస్త్యము ', and try to follow what he highlights on the subject. It is not difficult never feel: अर्जुन उवाच |

योऽयं योगस्त्वया प्रोक्त: साम्येन मधुसूदन |

एतस्याहं न पश्यामि चञ्चलत्वात्स्थितिं स्थिराम् || 33||BG 6.33: Arjun said: The system of Yog that you have described, O Madhusudan, appears impractical and unattainable to me, due to the restless mind.

चञ्चलं हि मन: कृष्ण प्रमाथि बलवद्दृढम् |

तस्याहं निग्रहं मन्ये वायोरिव सुदुष्करम् || 34|| BG 6.34: The mind is very restless, turbulent, strong and obstinate, O Krishna. It appears to me that it is more difficult to control than the wind. Read what Krishna says: श्रीभगवानुवाच |

असंशयं महाबाहो मनो दुर्निग्रहं चलम् |

अभ्यासेन तु कौन्तेय वैराग्येण च गृह्यते || 35BG 6.35: Lord Krishna said: O mighty-armed son of Kunti, what you say is correct; the mind is indeed very difficult to restrain. But by practice and detachment, it can be controlled. असंयतात्मना योगो दुष्प्राप इति मे मति: | वश्यात्मना तु यतता शक्योऽवाप्तुमुपायत: || 36||G 6.36: Yog is difficult to attain for one whose mind is unbridled. However, those who have learnt to control the mind, and who strive earnestly by the proper means, can attain perfection in Yog. This is my opinion.

With this once again apeal readers to welcome and wish C.R.M.Rao who has embarked on a service (Spiritual) to humankind.

This is little note I dared to add to what shri Sundara Ram had written.

I feel immensely happy for the response given by all and especially by Sri Hulikunte Sundara Ram. I know I am incompetent but I am more anxious to bring the glory of our great ancestors to the youth or so to say to the followers of this great Sanathana Dharma so that they can know it and go further deep into the work which had inspired so many great and noble laureates of the world. 'Bhagavatgeeta is a subject in the curriculum of several renowned Universities of the world.. Unfortunately our country's generation do not pay any heed to it nor had the Governments that ruled in the past took any interest in making it popular for the good of the nation and the youth.

Kthopanishad says like this which was the message preached by Swamy Vivekananda all the time. It goes like this:

उत्तिष्ठत जाग्रत प्राप्य वरान्निबोधत ।

क्षुरस्य धारा निशिता दुरत्यया दुर्गं पथस्तत्कवयो वदन्ति ।।

(कठोपनिषद्, अध्याय १, वल्ली ३, मंत्र १४)

Arise! Awake! Approach the great and learn from them .

Like the sharp edge of a razor is that path, so the wise or the great people say −hard to tread and difficult to cross but not impossible. Try and try till you succeed. Attaining the knowledge is the ultimate.

Swasthi.

Talisetti Venkata Subba Rao Good idea

Sudhakar Yv Sir there is thing which is called SUBCONSCIOUS mind it will take care, that will pack it in side and will do the needful let us put in our efforts ఫలితం భగవంతుడికి వదలండి. మీ ప్రయత్నం ఫలితాన్నిస్తుంది

Kaladhar Kakarla ''Do Thy Duty; Fruit is not thy concern'', I wish this message would be highlighted in your effort, designed by God, to justify the eternal value, and the universal value of the GITA.

Abburi Nagabose Do your duty and don't bother or expect about the outcome. Have faith in God and trust the God. God will take care of all who have immense faith in Him

Hulikunte Sundara Ram Thank you sir for your acknowledgement. You can also use Speaking tree platform, which is more on spirituality.

Sastry Vemuri Sir, your effort is very very useful as good as making for Hindus Bhagavatgita is more important first than Puranas which one may later study to learn the need to understand through examples of God in various forms proved the aspects of Bhagavatgeeta …See More

Hulikunte Sundara Ram replied

·Hulikunte Sundara Ram Yejurveda has 15 sutras by apastamba, Agastya etc, today we can hardly 9 have survived including that of Koundinya. Sir I. Humbly submit, that if I have erred correct me. I stand corrected. Regards

Satyanarayana Devaku I am not able to understand why anyone should work without expecting any good result. Please clarify sirs

Hulikunte Sundara Ram We work to maintain the physical body on the returns we get from it. We know we get returns, it is sure and definite. The main point is that, the work we do should be done with full heart, concentration and wth happiness. While working if we think of the returns we lose concentration, work gets spoiled and we lose happiness. We lose work satisfaction. We start worrying.

Sri Krishna says'Karmanye va adhikaraste....., in spirtualiy it means that our present destiny, lifestyle, is based on previous birth, what we do ,our nature (trigunas)are dependent on our birth. Hence what work comes to you do it sincerely. Since the result (destiny) is already fixed do not worry about it.

Generally, can we expect what happens tomorrow? No is it not. Hence live in the present without losing the charm of life and its happiness. Enjoy doing work. Do not worry about its returns.

Hulikunte Sundara Ram This message is for Satyanarayan Devaku.
