73: Bhagavad Gita Class by Swami Tadatmananda - Ch.9 Verses 29-34

[@jasminka-k9t]

Dear Swamiji, thank you humbly for your wonderful teachings of Bhagavad-Gita. We are so blessed in this day and age that these profound and important teachings are at the tip of our fingers so to speak. Even some 30-40 years ago it was so much harder to come across such texts or teachers. I am truly grateful. Om Shanti! 🙏

In the absence of comment I wish to thank you dearest Swami for your efforts to provide first rate instruction of an important element of spiritual teachings.The only price of admission has been ones attention and intentions.This brings to mind the book Steppenwolfe by Hesse where the price of admission into the Magic Theatre is your mind/ however in he case of these classes., I hope my analogy is applicable to those who have undertaken the course so generously given throughout the year. Thanks for this guiding light along the path of self realization.

Thank you Swamiji for another wonderful lesson. In these last chapter I have learnt to appreciate bhakti and I have felt very close to Ishvara just for the first time in my life. From time to time I feel as if Ishvara gave me some answers through your words. Now, I know that I can prey to Ishvara every day of my life offering Him my ragas and dvesas and at the same time, these actions of bhakti could help me to improve my entire life. It is also very important to bear in mind that we should help other people with less fortune in this life. Namaste.

Karma yoga is bhakti in action..

During Védic Period there were many revered and rspected Brahmavādini-Riśhikās- women Riśis, who were associated with many Mantrās. The Rig Véda and the Sāma Véda mention the names of Rômasa, Lôpamudra, Apāla, Kadru, Viśvavara, Ghôśa, Sikata, Nivavari, Juhu, Vagaṁbhriṇi, Paulomi, Yami Vaivaśvathi, Sraddha, Soorya, Urvaśi, Sarama, Sarasvathi, Poulomi Sachi, Choodāla, Indraṇi, Sāvitri, Devajami, Ghôśāla, Sulabha, Maitreyi, Gargi, Nôdha, Akrishtabhāśa, Sikatanivavari and Gaupayana. Similarly there were Kśatriya Riśis and Śũdra Riśis also besides Brahmin Riśis who were all the Seers of Truth.

Hatred is a strong element in all religious fundamentalism small wonder this is where so much violence in social relationships originates.

[@wetti2004]

Thanks very much for this wonderful teaching! Please allow me the following question: How is there the opportunity of grace, what i understand as UNDESERVED benevolence, if God or Ishvara only gives mecanicly exactly what one deserves by their actions, through the law of karma? Or does the concept of divine grace not exist in this tradition? I would be very grateful for every helpful answer. Stay all blessed and warm greetings from Switzerland

Thanks 🙏 Where can I get lyrics of English chanting in same metre as Sanskrit chanting? That was awesome 👍 pl share for all chapters,🌷🙏

[@ssapthar]

Thank you, Tadatmananda ji🙏 I loved the clarifications relating to pāpa-yonayaḥ - that has always been bothering me. Also, when it comes to praying, and taking the name of God (chanting), what should the attitude be? Many have lived their entire life knowing to pray only for things per se (or for things to go well in genaral). When that neediness fades in prayers, what do we even pray for? At that point, is there any difference between Bhakti yoga and Karma yoga?

Pranam Swamiji…. Thank you so much swamiji for such a lucid explanation verse wise of Bhagvad Geeta.. Would like to understand in my opinion the contradiction wrt initiation of the so called caste system in the ancient India. While in verse 13 of chapter 4 and verse 41 of chapter 18 of Bhagvad Geeta,Srikrishna has clearly explained that the chaturvarnya is on the basis of ‘Guna-Karma’ or individual aptitude for their own betterment and not actually the Caste system as was later made out to be.Having understood so,how one would explain verse 32 and 33 of chapter 9 which tend to indicate existence of caste system and in fact SriKrishna using it to explain the result of Bhakti.. Kindly throw light on this apparent contradiction for my proper understanding .
