Do you know the Wisdom of “self-Knowledge” - 2

Image
  Continuation to my previous post… Arjuna’s emotional turmoil was the   preparation step to acquire the eligibility of the ultimate knowledge and Lord  Lord Krishna says to Arjuna, “Self Ignorance is the cause of all human problems and attaining self-knowledge is the only solution.” Wise people do not grieve for the living one nor do they grieve for the dead, you are grieving for those people who do not deserve any grieve because, though they are your relatives they are not following Righteousness (Dharma). So do not speak like a wise man Lord Krishna emphasizes on to become wise by questioning yourself “Who am I” Every individual consists of two components which are soul and body, attaining self-knowledge is nothing but mastering the knowledge of “Soul”. But by default, the individuals are in a perception of body, which is the cause of all human emotions and leads to sorrow. Identifying the soul intrinsic to the body is the solution. “ To understand it better...

Do you know the Wisdom of “Self-Knowledge”? - 2

Image
  Continuation to my previous post… where Arjuna was in despair and a series of questions were asked to his Guru, Lord Krishna. Lord Krishna understood that Arjuna has stepped out of the right track following the series of his questions in the middle of the battlefield and decides to use a three-pointed è Philosophical, Ethical, and Practical approach which is the best suited for the situation to bring back Arjuna to the right track for performing his duty. Arjuna was immersed in the emotional turmoil of attachment, grief, and delusion, and the only solution to come out of it is to know the real “him”. This is called the knowledge of “Self”.

The emotional imbalance that Arjuna was going through, we can relate at some point of time in our life too, either it could be a professional or personal and the only solutio...

Image
  Continuation to my previous post… where the armies of Pandavas and Kauravas reached the battleground with their supporter and the war equipment... Arjuna, the third of the five brothers from the Pandavas group was the key warrior skilled in archer.  The charioteer of Arjuna’s chariot was Lord Krishna himself. Arjuna and Lord Krishna are also cousins and are very close to each other. Arjuna asks Lord Krishna to place the chariot in between the two armies so that he can get the view of armies on both sides. And looking at the army that he has to fight with, he forgets his status as a great worrier and starts thinking about the outcome of this battle but on the other side, Kaurav as are eager to start the War on Pandavas without a second thought. Arjuna could not treat his cousins as his enemies but in fact, he already entered the battlefield where Kauravas are armed with their weapons, and the waves of thoughts start flowing through Arjuna's mind getting into despair, an...

  A family could be small or big, but if the intent of the family members is good, then there will not be any scarcity of happiness in that family. But, if any seed of desire grows in any member of that family which is not aligned with the law of nature or in other words inclined towards righteousness then it would lead to conflicts. We grew up in environments that teach us the way to live life through storytelling. Mahabharata, which is considered to be one of the major ancient epics,   written in Sanskrit by Sage Vedvyas explains such an incident and also gives the result of having such a seed of desire growing into weed.

The dynasty of the kings is explained in a pictorial view ...

  Did you experience the battle? Let us understand what is a battle, to have more clarity to answer Yes or No . The battle here is not something that is fought at the line of control between the two countries. It is a journey from the seed of desire to the accomplishment of desire.
