Bhagavadgeeta - Adhyaya 6
Bhagavadgeeta - Adhyaya 6 Chapter #: 6 Chapter Name: Dhyana Yoga / Atma Samyama Yoga ( ಧ್ಯಾನ ಯೋಗಃ / ಆತ್ಮಸಂಯಮಯೋಗಃ) Total verses (slokas) in this chapter: 47 Adhyaya - 6, Dhyana Yoga Chapter of Gita (here after referred as BG) - The core idea in this chapter is - "To Give up Selfish nature". Dhyana can get weak in mind when we have kalmasha (impurity) in mind. Hence Krishna asks to give up on selfish vow and be determined in mind to do so. BG: Krishna says: Man has the ability, power and all freedom to either raise himself to higher levels or degrade himself to stoop lower. His mind can be his friend in his journey of life or his hard core enemy. His karma alone is the cause for his betterment or his degrading nature. Every mans Atmodhara is in his very own hands. ಉದ್ಧರೇದಾತ್ಮನಾತ್ಮಾನಂ ನಾತ್ಮಾನಮವಸಾದಯೇತ್ । ಆತ್ಮೈವ ಹ್ಯಾತ್ಮನೋ ಬನ್ಧುರಾತ್ಮೈವ ರಿಪುರಾತ್ಮನಃ ॥ 6-5॥ MK : ಆವ ಜನ್ಮದ ಋಣವೊ, ಆವ ಕರ್ಮದ ಕಣವೊ । ಮಾವಾಗಿ ಬೇವಾಗಿ ಸಂಸಾರ ವನದಿ।। ಜೀವಕೀಂಟಿಪುವು ಮಾದಕದ ರಸಪಾನ...
