Supremacy of Knowledge 34-39
1 Gita Sloka every day - Chapter 4 -JnanaKarmaSanyasa Yoga - Sloka 35
What is the hallmark of enlightenment?
Krsna in All |
Yagnyatva na punah moham evam yasyasi pandava I
Yena bhutani asheshena drakshyasi atmany atho mayi II sloka 35
यज्ञात्वा न पुनः मोहं एवं यास्यसि पाण्डव ।
येन भूतानि अशेषेण द्रक्ष्यसि आत्मनि अथो मयि ।। श्लोक ३५
Knowing this, O Pandava, you will not again fall into this confusion. By this you will see the whole of the creation in your self and in Me.
Two apparently opposing detachments encountered each other at midnight and lay in ambush to deal on the enemy a decisive blow at daybreak. But to the surprise of both, they discovered in the morning that they belonged to the same army. Their attitude and action changed accordingly. The world is viewed by the ignorant as made up of conflicting forces. But with the dawn of enlightenment all diversities disappear. One reality is presenting itself as many.
Knowledge leads to unity; ignorance to diversity
Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
