LESSONS FROM BHAGAVAD GITA – 44

As taught by Parama Pujya Sri Swamiji

 

"Therefore, O Bharata (Arjuna), with the sword of

knowledge cut this doubt about the Self, born of

ignorance, residing in your heart. Arise and resort to

Yoga."

 

In this last verse of this chapter the Lord asks

Arjuna to slay the wicked doubt dwelling in his heart

born of ignorance or lack of discrimination. The Lord

says, "O Arjuna, remove your doubts by knowledge.

Doubts arise only due to ignorance. Cut your doubt by

the sword of knowledge and resort to Karma Yoga. Stand

up to wage this battle O Bharata Prince."

 

Through Arjuna the Lord gives the instructions to all

humanity. First of all a man has to clear his mind

from all doubts. And then he should fix his mind upon

the ideal of Karma Yoga (work for the sake of

humanity) and carry out his daily works until the

highest wisdom is gained. Here ends the fourth chapter

of the Bhagavad Gita.
