[@HOLYBHAGAVADGITA]

Answer Quiz here: 1. The scriptures give examples of the bee, elephant, moth, fish and deer getting attracted to one of the senses (See, Touch, Smell. Hear and Taste). Match each creature with the sense which led to its death. 2. In verse 2.69, Shree Krishna states, "What all beings consider as day is the night of ignorance for the wise, and what all creatures see as night is the day for the introspective sage.". What do the terms day and night refer to here?

[@pushparamakrishnan9707]

[@Basumatary_NOTEBOOK]

[@vrindaneel2172]

bee(smell), elephant(touch), moth(see), fish(taste), dear(sound)

[@vrindaneel2172]

Day for worldly people is indulging in gratification of sense, Saint considers this as night/ignorance. Night for worldly people equates to practicing austerities, Saint considers that day/light.

1) 🐝-👃 🐟-👅 🦌-👂 🐘- 🖐🏻 🦗-👁️ 🧍-👁️👂👅👃🖐🏻 2) Sensual enjoyment is day for ignorant but night for wise whereas Austerities, devotion, Roopdhyaan, etc are night for ignorant but day for wise.

[@prasad866]

1. Bee - smell, fish - tsste, moth seeing, elephant - touch. deer - hearing. 2. Sensual pleasures and worldly life/ attachment are day light for men of the world, while they are the dark path for Men Of Wisdom. Likewise study of scriptures, devotional practices and such austerities are a dark or unpleasant way for worldly people whereas that is the path of light for the wise or men of INTELLECT. V.logical explanation with deep devotion 🙏🙏🙏, thanks Swamiji. Bless me to assimilate this wisdom. 🙏🙏🙏

[@RadheyRadhey108]

In short : happiness = unity with God in mind Restrain senses to overcome desires ( taste / touch / smell / see / hear ) Animals go to death with their senses ( traps / like s moth to the flame etc ) Giving up desires = being God Like Per Bhagavatam , Mahabharat , The Gita . Givjng up desires = Peace Lord Buddha states there is Suffering in this world , cause of suffering = desires , eliminate desires you bring Peace . Peace = freeing from attachments . Jai Shri Radhey Radhey 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🕉☮️💟💐💐🌸🌸🌸🌸

Swamiji , what a beautiful commentary. supported by the sayings in upanishads, mahabharata ,bhagavata ec is commendable. The way of expression adds more appeal to the words in the sloka. namaskaramu.

[@simmychaplot667]

We need the senses to survive, thrive in the struggle for existence, but at one point in the upward journey we must meet the most important milestone - we must have the machinery of the mind-senses be tamed up. Thanks so much for this message!

[@smitamehtadenton]

What an amazing commentary by Swamiji that those who are able to control material desires, will become God-like and access the peace formula free from attachments that ruin the soul. Thank you, Swamiji.

Swamiji has beautifully explain about how to attain peace by restraining our senses & eliminating worldly attachment.

[@dharmen2201]

Abs 1 Bee = smell Elephant = touch Moth = roop/beauty Deer = sound Fish = taste 2 sensual, worldly enjoyment is darkness/night for a sage and day for the ignorant. Devotion, austerity, meditation is day/light for a sage and darkness/ignorance for the ignorant

Ans-1 Desire for senses to lead to their death. Bee- smell , Elephant- touch, Moth- see, Fish- test, Deer- hear. Ans -2 All the worldly enjoyments are the day for the worldly people, that means they think all the happiness are there and for them meditation, austerity and devotion to God are night, that means all the distresses are here. But for the sages think just it's reverse. The meaning of day and night here are happiness and distress or knowledge and ignorance. Beautiful explanation by Swamiji.

[@siddhantdhuri4705]

The commentary was great... however please keep the video elaborate, the middle explanation and slides became too fast.

[@milindlolekar776]

How to become desire less? To desire is ingrained in our soul. So we cannot become desireless. What is the way forward? 🙏🙏

[@HOLYBHAGAVADGITA]

Please watch the commentary of this verse for the answer kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJrOdKaJqbuBZ80 Thanks 🙏

[@swagatmishra1905]

Jai Shri Krishna. If we do not have desires, then we can not become ambitious and thus we can not grow. Could you please tell us how can we still be ambitious with out having desires?

[@sonalshah5270]

Swamiji explained truly amazing if we attach our mind to god then we get truly peace Thank you Swamiji and team 🙏❤️

[@krishnasservant7317]

Agar koi marriage me bulae to agar ham sochen ki chalte hain to kya ye hamari desire hai?

[@theangel6398]

But one question still arises swamiji ... What about the desires of the close ones...like family ...if they have certain desires from us and we are unable or not so interested in fulfilling dat ? What should be done ?

[@alanrheeder2227]

its about the attitude taken about desire!
