Namaste:

 

My favourites in the Gita are named by me the 'five-star shlokas'.

They are as many as a hundred. Now and then I shall write to you

about them. Here is one: (V - 30)

 

mayi sarvANi karmANi sannyasyAdhyAtma cetasA /

nirAshir-nirmamo bhUtvA yudhyasva vigata-jvaraH //

 

I had talked about it in :

 

advaitin/message/5302

 

The shloka means:

Renouncing all actions in me, (SharaNAgati)

with the mind centred in the Self, (Brahma-BhAva)

free from desire (Yoga-sAdhanA)

and (free) from egoism, (Bhakti: 'God is the Doer')

do thou fight without mental fever. (Karma yoga)

 

Thus the shloka contains the ingredients of all the five teachings

of the Gita.

 

PraNAms to all advaitins.
