Geeta's & Upanishads
Gita's Words of Guidance
This is a ready reference and guidance on major issues that affect the common person, culled from commentaries on the Bhagavad-Gita by Swami Chinmayananda.
Hamsa Gita
The human mind, so involved in worldly pursuits, finds it very difficult to withdraw itself despite getting knocked about by the world. A mind, thus preoccupied, knows not how to withdraw. At such times, only God or a man of discrimination can help us see light.
The Sanatkumaras approached Lord Brahma, the Creator, with such a problem. Lord Brahma confessed to being too preoccupied, and therefore, had no solution to offer. The Supreme Lord then appeared as 'Hamsa' - the Swan, and gave the knowledge of the Truth. This episode of Shrimad Bhagavatam is called Hamsa Geeta.
The lucid commentary by Swami Tejomayananda helps us understand the problem and seek a practical solution, thereby giving us a head start towards our quest for Truth.
Kapila Gita (Kapila on Self-Knowledge)
Commentary by Swami Tejomayananda
The son fulfils his name 'Putra' when he gives joy and saves his parents from hell. In Kapila Gita, the lord as Kapila Muni, through self-knowledge, transports his mother turned disciple, Devahuti, beyond joy and sorrow & heaven and hell, into a state of pure Bliss.
Swami Tejomayananda further clarifies and beautifies this subtle teaching with lucid commentary.
This wonderful teaching can become our passport to Bliss.
Kenopanishad
Commentary by Swami Chinmayananda. The central problem of the nature of eternal, ultimate Reality and its relation with the transient plurality of the world is pertinently raised.
