The one who knows Me in essence as unborn, beginningless and the mighty Lord of all worlds, he the most knowledgeable amongst mortals is delivered from all sins.

💬 Commentary English

All have their origin in the Lord, but He Himself is His own source. He has no birth, He has been always, is always and shall be there always. This creation has come into existence; it will get dissolved; creation is there, hence there will be dissolution too; the beginning is there and there will be an end to it as well. The Supreme has no beginning, that is why there is no question of His end. From age to age His manifestation in different forms is not a birth like that of ordinary mortals; it is His sportive play for a specific purpose! And on completion of the play it is wound up.

The gods, the great sages, each and every being of creation, each and every particle owes its existence to Him, and are functioning due to His power and energy. The Lord of all, and being the cause of action and sustainer of all He is the great Lord of all. Try to build such an attitude to know Him as such. Do not make the world as the centre of all information. Understand, know and accept the reality! The result is clear in this inspiration from of the Gita-


Have firm faith in the words of the divine. Due to the ignorance of the Supreme the embodied being gets entangled in the world, wanders in ignorance and delusion. Ignorance and bewilderment cause the embodied being to see and consider the world as the real and induce him to move away from the reality, impel him towards sinful actions. In fact to dwell in ignorance itself is a sin. Integral knowledge and inclination towards essential truth takes one towards deliverance from sins. In any form when the thoughts of the divine will occupy our inner-self then sins and delusions from there will have to take flight. Why the procrastination? Imbibe divine emotions and make its meditation a firm part of your life; but how? Come and let us see further, understand and accept-
