Bhagavad Gita Chapter 9 - Rajavidya Rajaguhya Yoga - Sloka 3


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

The Relationship between Saguna Brahman and Prakriti 1-10
1 Gita Sloka  every day - Chapter 9 - Rajavidya Rajaguhya Yoga - Sloka 3

 Nammazhvar being given moksham
Ashraddhadhanah purusha dharmasya asya parantapa I
Aprapya mam nivartante mrutyu samsara vartmani II sloka 3
अश्रद्धधानाः पुरुष धर्मस्य अस्य परन्तप I 
अप्राप्य मां निवर्तन्ते मृत्यु संसार वर्त्मनि I I  श्लोक 3

Men devoid of shraddha for this dharma do not attain me, O oppressor of foes, but return to the path of the mortal world.

A fish on land, that does not know that there is water within its reach  has to suffer necessarily. Men who do not know and who do  not care to know of moksha dharma or the path of deliverance have no alternative to being born repeatedly in this world of transmigration and transitory pleasure. For want of shraddha, they suffer as destitutes.
