I have responded to your posts with a post of my own, over in 'Seeking Limits'. I have nagging doubts about this Krishna character. I have no doubt that he is trying to help Arjuna reach a greater understanding of life and his duties in life. I do not doubt his basic goodness, but I am suspicious of other aspects of his persona and his message.
I must thank you for your great efforts in translating the Gita for us, for I would never have seen these points in the classic translations. Cheers

Re: Re: Re: Aba Brother
I am at the university editing some wonderful articles on women emancipation fron our English dept lecturers and students from across India. i find some case studies very interesting and well-told considering they are so young, the students i mean. was wondering how it'll look like in the Blog. But that is not permissible. Sometimes I go off-course, it's all about admiration. Well I'm tied up with the day ... will share if I can

Re: Re: Aba Brother
And thank you. Yes, spiritual enlightenment appears to be achievable in degrees; varying stages. I will not be surprised to learn there is nothing apocryphal in the Vedas or Upanishads, seems I've heard that before somewhere. The calculations alone are enough to astound! One does strive for enlightenment, but one must be open to it, I think. Perhaps it is different for different people; of course, it would be... 
hugs back

Re: Aba Brother
Thank you sis, yes, what Krishna says are all very difficult to bring into real-life practice. Even Arjuna says so later, but it is only they who were past masters in it in the Vedic times, relinquishing was of the material and what they obtained was spiritual enlightenment from where all the wonderful Truths were seen (we call it Darshan) and not philosophised. if you search the Internet, you will be surprised that not one single discovery had any aberration with the modern-day science. There is nothing called apocrypha in the Vedas or Upanishads. Their mathematical calculations, age of the earth, sun, the universe, the black holes, the exact timing of eclipses a hundred years hence, and many others are deadly accurate. As for as my wisdom, they are all borrowed from here and there but I do cherish and treasure your compliments. Hugs

Re:
The mind, C C T, loves to live in lies that is why it is not to be trusted too much. With age it does deteriorate, and when it does not in young age, it is in a constant state of flux, and thus the delusion. One thing you mus have felt that there is something that is as strong as ever, in all stages of life. To that we assign the name, soul.

Thank you, dear Aba brother. To do as instructed by Krishna seems quite difficult for an ordinary human. Yet I am certain this is only one small aspect of the whole. To learn to relinquish to obtain...yes, that is understandable. Wonderfully told. Such deep wisdom you possess and share with us, that I am again, wordless!

Well I honestly do not not know how you decipher this . One day you will look back at wonder as I do. I can only think that the mind deteriorates with age. Actually I like your explanations beneath each paragraph, to be quite honest,I think that is for me the most appealing. This is student material and probably will be recognized as such.

Anib to GM
And GM, one more thing ... this writing has given me much, much deeper understanding and satisfaction than what I had previously known. That you became instrumental in the work, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Earlier, I did not have the confidence that I could really write from (whatever) the depths of my understanding. But then again, it is only the beginning. Until today, we have covered only the first two chapters, and the volumes it has made! What will happen, if God willing, Insha Allah, we were to discuss eighteen such chapters which form only the 23rd to 40th of the sixth volume of Mahabharata. Would anybody be interested or hold their patience that long? What do you say? Cheers I hope?

Re: Thank you my dear friend
It takes me around two days or so to contemplate on the subject mater, and I feel excited at your (and others') responses which probably reduces the time factor, Lol! Cheers GM .
