Bhagavad Gita Chapter 4 - JnanaKarmaSanyasa Yoga - Sloka 7

The entire content of this mail is from Swami Chidbhavananda's translation of The Bhagavad Gita, published by Ramakrishna Mission.

The Advent & acts of the Incarnation - 4-9
1 Gita Sloka every day - Chapter 4 -JnanaKarmaSanyasa Yoga - Sloka 7


Yada yada hi dharmasya glanir bhavati bharata I
Abhyuktanam adharmasya tadatmanam srijamyaham II sloka 7
यदा यदा हि धर्मस्य गलानिर भवति भारत ।
अभ्युक्तानां अधर्मस्य तदात्मानं स्रिजंयाहं ।। श्लोक ७

Whenever there is a decay of dharma and rise of adharma, then I embody myself, O Bharata.

 Dharma is verily the karma that is conducive to man's growth and progress; what impedes them is adharma. At every time adharma prevails and prevents man's evolution , the cosmic intelligence embodies itself, as a matter of course. Having personified himself, what does the Lord do?. He proclaims in the next sloka.
