Guest guest Posted September 12, 2002 Report Share Posted September 12, 2002 Chapter 6 Verse 7 Jit'aatmanah prashaantasya param'aatmaa samaahitah / sheet'oshhna-sukha-duhkheshhu tathaa maan'aapamaanayoh // The self-controlled and serene man's Supreme Self is steadfast in cold and heat, pleasure and pain as also in honor and dishonor. LESSONS FROM BHAGAVAD GITA – 55 >From the discourses of Pujya Sri Swamiji "The self-controlled and serene man's Supreme Self is steadfast in cold and heat, pleasure and pain as also in honor and dishonor." The man who has not secured full control over his body, mind and the sense organs cannot be serene and at peace with himself. But he who is established in self-control has absolute peace. In that state of peacefulness his self becomes the Supreme Self. That means, the same individual Self that was full of imperfections will reach perfection and will be united with the Supreme Self. Thus the Supreme Spirit will begin to manifest in the individual Self. The man who has become one with the Supreme Self will be the same in states like heat and cold, pleasure and pain and honor and disgrace. News - Today's headlines http://news.
