To all Gurus who blessed me to go into right path, to my parents and my wife who always supported and guided me to go into the path of spirituality,
Thank You!
Gurur Brahmā Gurur Viṣṇur Gurur devo Maheśvaraḥ Guruḥ sākṣāt paraṁ Brahma tasmai śrī gurave namaḥ translates to “Our creation is that guru (Brahma-the force of creation); the duration of our lives is that guru (Vishnu-the force of preservation); our trials, tribulations, illnesses, calamities and the death of the body is that guru (devo Maheshwara-the force of destruction or transformation).
There is a guru nearby (Guru Sakshat) and a guru that is beyond the beyond (param Brahma)”. Today I’m writing this for my Friends and Families.Bhagawad Geeta, why one should read and practice in their life? Is it so hard?When I started thinking about what Bhagwad Gita is, I was trying to start something to read. on Sanskrit. I wanted to understand true meaning of life .
After seeking and trying to find out answers by myself for many years, six, seven years at last I got connected to some of the group who are already practicing bhagwad Geeta Along with Yoga, Pranayam and Dhyan.For me Bhagwad Geeta, is not new, as a person who was born in a Brahmin family, I started reading Bhagawad Gita from very childhood. I used to read it in Sanskrit language. I even went to many places to do Pooja and Bhagavad Gita reading for them.
But I never read it deeply to understand each and every slokas meaning of it. I never realized the knowledge and wisdom it has. I always treated as a book which has some slokas and mantra and when you chant them it helps your life. That means I was doing ignorance and I was not looking into the real knowledge behind it. Many people now a days are doing same thing. They are thinking Bhagavad Geeta is a novel or story about war and they will study it but will not understand the true context and meaning.
I was so happy to get connected because I was seeking for that connection for many years. I really wanted to learn and understand what life is about and wanted to see what Bhagavad Gita is teaching about. Bidur Phuyal was the Guru already teaching many people, got lucky to get connected with him along with other seekers. , Chakrapani Aryal , Suresh Bhatta , Gps Arya , Bijaya Subedi Ishor Shrestha Ishor Shrestha Hira Gautam Aryal Tika Lamsal निरमणी कालाखेती कर्णमाया राधा Menuka Giri @ and many more Sadhaks and Gurus I started meeting.For the people like me, it was easy because I am the seeker,
I was already looking for the answers. People who are not looking for the answers should also try to consider reading this epic book with the help of a good Guru. which gives you various things. So far with the grace of Guru and the universal energy or the god I am able to realize few things that Bhagawad Geeta is. Guru is important to help you understand and know the details of Bhagawad Geeta. If you don’t have guru it’s not easy. For me I did not have guru for many years to show me the right answer and meaning of slokas and no one was there to show which slokas are important and which was not. Even though I studied Geeta from my childhood but I never understand any meaning of it.
It was because I never tried to understand the deep concepts and I did not have Guru or teacher to show me the path. Also what ever self study I did was random without any goals. If you do same thing it is fruitless and you won’t get anything out of it. Another thing is Bhagavad Geeta is not just a book to read, it’s a book with so many examples and sequence of execution of those situations into right way , with right ambition. Sanskrit words are the toughest words in languages as one single word can have 100’s of meaning. With our limited knowledge in Sanskrit it’s hard to understand the true meaning so a Guru is needed.
The Bhagavad Geeta is not just a text is not just a story or novel. When you start you will have some difficulties with understanding the context and the real story behind it if you continue practicing continue reading you will slowly try to get little bit answers on what it is and how to get it. Self-realization: the moment I started practicing the mind which is the mad monkey mind then I realized slowly life is not about, not only about getting the materialistic auditions positions rather it is about balancing the materialistic positions as well as the life itself. When I say life life is not only just eating and sleeping it’s about the path you are going through and the work you want to do for longer terms and before you die.
It has dramatically increased the self-realization within myself that I am nothing my thoughts emotions exons everything are related to me, the way I think is connected to the way I do is connected to the way what I become. In other way the life is not about what you expect from others rather it’s about what do you want to be from your inside. The self-realization is the key to spirituality once you understand the body the mind and the soul how all of these are connected and once you start getting the experiences you will realize automatically realize nobody has to force you nobody has to teach you you will realize from inside life is different. When you realize then you become better person for better world.The Bhagavad Gita emphasizes the importance of self-realization and the pursuit of knowledge to attain spiritual enlightenment.
It teaches that true wisdom comes from understanding the impermanence of the material world and the eternal nature of the soul.
