Ramanuja's Gita Bhashyam - Chapter 2 - sloka 32


he entire content of this mail is from Swami Adidevananda's translation of  Ramanuja's Gita Bhashya, published by Ramakrishna Mission.

Swerve not from your Duty - 31-37
1 Gita Sloka every day - Chapter 2 - Samkhya Yoga - Sloka 32
 Banke Bihari of Brindavan
Yadrchaya cha upapannam swargadvaram apa avrtam I
Sukhinah kshatriya partha labhante yuddham idrasham II sloka 32
यद्र्च्चया च उपपन्नं स्वर्ग द्वारं  अप आवृतं   ।
सुखिनः क्षत्रियाः पार्थ लभन्ते युद्धं इद्रशं ।। श्लोक ३२ 

Happy are the Kshatriyas, O Arjuna, to whom a war like this comes of its own accord; it opens the gate to heaven.

Only the fortunate Kshatriyas ie the meritorious ones, gain such a war as this which comes unsought, which is the means for the attainment of immeasurable bliss, and which gives an unobstructed pathway to heaven.
