However, Dr Harsha may be requested to 'send' to the moderators of this list, the translations of 'Bhagavad Gita Saaram' by Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi, which is a summary of the Gita. Actually Shankarji, Raviji already submitted what you are looking for. The web link is given at the end. Love to all Harsha Ravi Mayavaram <miinalochanii According to bhagavAn shrI ramaNa mahaR^ishhii X:20 gives the essential message of the giitaa. ahamaatmaa guDaakesha sarvabhuutaashayasthitaH . ahamaadishcha madhyaM cha bhuutaanaamanta eva cha .. 10-20.. Which means: I am the Self, O guDaakesha, dwelling in the heart of all beings; I am the beginning, middle, and also the end of all beings. While commenting on this verse, shankara remarks, "aham aatma pratyag aatmaa nityam dheyayaH" -only for those who do not qualify for such a method krishhNa gives the subsequent forms such as I am vishhNu among aadityas etc. By saying I am the beginning etc, creation, sustenance, and dissolution aspects of ishwara is indicated. In addition ramaNa selected 42 verses in a particular order to give the gist of giita. You will find the verses and meaning in the URL quoted below. http://www.escribe.com/religion/advaita/m7131.html // Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
