Guest guest Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 "The Geetha is as a boat, which takes man across from the self-imposed state of bondage to the freedom which is his nature. He is taken from darkness to light, from lustrelessness to splendour," Swami said and explained, "The way it begins and the way it ends, that gives the clue to the subject which it expounds. The very first verse (of Gita) starts with the words, Dharmakshethre, Kurukshethre..., the word Dharma being the leading word. The last verse of the final eighteenth chapter speaks of Yatha Yogeswarah Krishna and this word, 'Yogeswarah' sums up the Dharma that is taught. Thus, it is clear that the objective of the teaching in the Geetha is just this: 'Remember Dharma; practise Dharma.' - Swami Explore and discover exciting holidays and getaways with India Travel Click here!
