suchandra Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Looks like this simple information cannot be understood and people's mentality is to simply raise objections one after the other. However, at one point the decision is obligatory to both the parties. Although this is the case in our material society, when it comes to spiritual life human race' logic is to rather demand from God the impossible - to support all those deviations and to help them to oppress or finish even their own coutrymen. Unseen fighting spirit to go against each other among so called human beings even among members of the same Insect Civilization. "So our process of receiving knowledge is from the supreme controller because, according to the definition already given—wise, the most wise—Krishna, or Bhagavān, is the most wise. Therefore, if we receive knowledge from the most wise, then there is no flaw. That is our principle, that we are receiving from Krishna, the supreme controller, directly. Just like when there is some misunderstanding, we take help from the law books because in the law book or in the law court, the decision is obligatory to both the parties. So to give knowledge there are many, many parties, but when we receive knowledge from the Supreme, that is all-inclusive. So here Krishna says, aśocyān anvaśocas tvaṁ prajñā-vādāṁś ca bhāṣase [Bg. 2.11] Arjuna has accepted the guidance of Krishna. He has said previously that “The position is very perplexing. Therefore I accept You as my spiritual master, and You kindly give me enlightenment.” This is the process. We should approach the Supreme or the representative of the Supreme, just like the same example: when there is any controversy, we refer to the law book or to the lawyer, or we take the decision of the law court, and that is final." full lecture Bhagavad-gītā 2.11 (with Spanish translator) by His Divine Grace A.
