Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Thus Spake The Lord The Gita is for saving all, and granting Liberation to all. Gita, in Telugu, means 'a line,' it draws a line across and cancels the series of birth and deaths; it teaches you to stand erect, unafraid, along the straight path of dharma, along the line laid down. When the obstacles in the path of truth are laid low, deliverance is achieved. That is why moksha (liberation) is something that can be won, here and now; one need not wait for the dissolution of the physical body for that. Once you have secured a Guru, leave everything to him, even the desire to achieve liberation. He knows you more than you yourself ever can. He will direct you as much as is good for you. Your duty is to obey and to smother the tendency to drift away from him. You may ask, 'How are we to earn our food?' if we attach ourselves to a Guru like this? Be convinced that the Lord will not let you starve. He will give you not merely money, but even amritha (nectar); not only food, but the nectar of Immortality.
