83: Bhagavad Gita Class by Swami Tadatmananda - Ch.11 Verses 47-55

[@NeilMurthy08]

I'm in my late 30s, and this is the first time I am studying the Bhagavad Gita. For years, I had rebelled against my Hindu upbringing, dismissing the faith of my childhood as fantasy. Now, like Arjuna kneeling before Sri Krishna, I come with folded hands, in complete awe and in total reverence for these divine teachings. Thank you Swamiji for revealing these profound truths to us via KZbin. My heart is filled with gratitude. Even though I'm still tossed around in this ocean of samsara, I now finally see a glimmer of moksha peeking through on the horizon. What a beautiful pilgrimage it is to go through the Bhagavad Gita verse by verse with you, Swamiji! Thank you. ❤🙏

[@rajendramirji5830]

It is impossible to express my gratitude to you swami for so beautifully explaining the "praveshtum" aspect of "vishwarup darshan" at the end. Thanks a million times. 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you deeply Swamiji for an amazing end of the chapter. It brought to focus the Imperative of Advaita Vedanta: Unity/Oneness of Bhagavan and Self. Self and God were never ever separated, only because of Maya, Self got entangled in ignorant delusion. Only through intense longing and focus on God can one know it and reach it. Just to realize that separation never existed. Thank you. Om Shanti! 🙏

Aatmiya DIVINITY AUM. TAT SAT. HARE KRSNA................... This chapter 11 is in REALITY most marvelously explaining SAMENESS (inseparable) NATURE of KRSNA and all HIS Creations including KRSNA DEVOTEES like US. We Need to be *KRSNAMAYI*, seeing, knowing, living in/with/by/for... KRSNA. Great knowing, Learning, Understanding KRSNA participating in Satasang. I Am OK NO Matter What.

Absolutely wonderful, especially when you get excited about stuff, like grammar, and bhakti and so forth! Excellent. Thank you so much.

[@koochithatha7486]

Salutations, Guruji. What an enlightening finish to a wonderful session - particularly your comments regarding v.54! Seeing, knowing and merging with Bhaghavan through one pointed devotion in spiritual practice is the perfect antidote to lift the veil of ignorance behind all the suffering. Swamiji, the enthusiasm you show in your work should motivate every one of us. Thanks so very much. Om Shanti 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@sriharimulukunte7881]

Brilliant explanation of "Shakyaham" sandhi.

[@rkatz0]

Always hard when the lesson ends! ;)

[@chironsthea607]

Namaste, om shanti

[@balakrishnabhat4157]

it will be great boon for all if these lectures are available on some mainstream major tv too, especially in india . In a way it will be a world class Geeta University.

[@jasmadhur4975]

Around 18:00 minutes, perhaps the extent of the revelation to Arjuna is greater than at previous times.

[@amiyaacharya4506]

Yes, also this revelation of cosmic form is only possible to witness with divine eyes, unlike previous time which was a public one.

[@jasmadhur4975]

@@amiyaacharya4506 Thank you for the insight.

[@chanakyagan]

Since some time, i was vaguely feeling that if India is blindly copying western culture so blindly then one day only some sage from the west will have to revive that sacred tradition and i am not wrong..you should teach to Indians in tv dooradharshan..to save them..please

[@barryobrien1890]

Who is there to save. It's all Krishna. Swami is just following Dharma. Don't worry.

[@grafinvonhohenembs]

Namaste, Swamiji! Thank you so much for another wonderful lecture, as always! Will you be recording and uploading the Tuesday night Vedanta classes as well?? I really hope that you are able to. I am currently re-watching your other classes on Sri Shankaracharya's works, and I am sure that I will watch them many more times after that, but it would be great to have more lectures on his and other works that are strictly focused on Advaita Vedanta. 🙏 Can't wait until next week's lecture! 🙏

[@lunar2277]

Thank you 🙏🌺 Will the Tuesday Vedanta classes be recorded for online too ? Currently reviewing Atma Bodha after having first joined your classes during that unsettling time . Thank you for everything 🙏🙏🙏🌺🙌💫

[@amiyaacharya4506]

Pujya Swami Ji, 🙏🙏🙏. Regarding Ch 11, vs 47, this revelation of cosmic form is only possible to WITNESS with divine eyes, unlike previous time, in the Palace which was SEEN by public, make it different. So to my understanding, SriKrishna literally meant that no one has WITNESSED this particular cosmic form earlier. Please correct me. Pranam Swami Ji.

[@sriharimulukunte7881]

Praveshtum = Aham Bramhasmi

[@paramasadguru1618]

"... never seen before except you" many not be an inconsistency though Kruśṇa revealed His Cosmic Form before at the Palace. When He revealed His Cosmic Form to Arjuna in the battlefield He had to bless Divine Vision to Arjuna on his request. But when He revealed His Cosmic Form in the Palace, [1] probably no one requested Him to grant Divine Vision and therefore all must have been forced to close their eyes before the Effulgent Form of the Lord OR [2] Kruśṇa might have revealed only a Partial Form [only that much that they deserved] and not Full Form.

दुः + दर्शन = दुरदर्शन - hard to see (rare or obscured) दूर + दर्शन = दूरदर्शन - far-seen, seen from afar The English verses are not my favorite.
