Gita An Unequalled Scripture

Srimad Bhagavad-Gita is a marvelous sacred scripture which gives solution to all kinds of problems. It is an ocean of profound knowledge of the supreme Brahman a practical hand book of Lord. Gita is a scripture on life knowledge victory a scripture which is a guide to the highest human psychology. It is creative book of the world which bestows skill to its readers.
For the yogis it is a yoga shasstra a philosophical treatise for the philosophers; for the astrologers a scripture of astrology; a book of science in the eyes of scientists a book of ethic for the masters of ethics and a treasure of knowledge leading to salvation for the sadhu. It presents karma yoga for the man of action Janna yoga far the man of knowledge Bhakti yoga for a devotee. It contains the knowledge of right conduct for students and etiquettes for house holders. Apart form this Gita also contains several arts like the art of freeing oneself forms sorrows, of carrying out duties of sacrifice of remaining detached form sins of having meal of enjoying sense pleasures, of making offerings to good of giving away (alms) of carrying out sacrificial rites of transforming the acts into truth of offering prayers, of developing equanimity etc. Though the Gita contain shocks but since it is the utterance of God it is referred to as Mantra and sometimes also called sutra because a deep meaning is hidden in every shake. Scriptures say:
One gets the merit of ten million holy expeditions by reciting the shloka of Gita, by remembering God singing his praise and by having Dashan of a self realized saint.
The Gita still occupies the top slot in out lives amongst all the sacred texts.
There is nothing as precious as Hari (the Lord) no path as easy as the path of Love.
No such well wisher of man like the sat guru and no other scripture as great as the Gita.’
This small scripture contains distinguished thoughts full of truth and knowledge regarding the depth of life. By regularly reading and reflecting upon them the dejection depression and worries of all henign are easily eliminated and a human being is transformed into divine begins. Those people are extremely fortunate who have assimilated the knowledge of Gita. Such people certainly succeed in elevation their lives sooner or later. Srimad Bhagavad-Gita is full such divine knowledge that whoever drinks its nectar develops the qualities of courage, velour equanimity spontaneity live peace and divine attributers in his life. He also becomes capable of resisting unrighteousness and exploitation.
Gita teaches such dharma that can be practiced in day to day life. It needs not any particular place or a fire pit or a temple, mosque or church for it practices. The Gita gives the technique of elevating you spiritually in you temporal life.
If you want to experience liberation even while living amidst the various obstacles and conflicts then the knowledge of Gita an Bhagwat shall be of immense help. Gita is such a philosophy which makes the java has the experience of his real beings.’
Vinobaji Bahava says on the strength of Gita a person can alone confront the entire would.
Doing the welfare of all human begins is the supreme goal of Gita. The man may not be deprived of realizing God beings fascinated by many person object or circumstance becomes attainment of God is the supreme goal of human life. People are erroneously drawn towards trying to gratify their senses by being captivated by the world cantors and pleasures. In returen they obtain nothing but sorrows. It is a pity that they look for happing in this world full of miseries. The more one wants to get pleasure form the world the more deeply he gets drowned in sorrows. The Gita removes this delusion and differences showing an extremely easy, natural and delightful way of living based on supreme knowledge. By assimilation a the ambrosial precepts of Gita am man gets both worldly enjoyments and liberation. If Gita is recited near a person on death bed, then he most certainly attains beatitude.
Hence every student should try to learn by heart the shloka of Gita and also assimilate its meaning thereby bringing grandeur and effulgence in his life. The Gita is benecilal for each and everyone irrespective of his country religion reface caters creed or stage of life. Regular recitation of Gita even for a shout while, brings about surprising benefits in one’s life. My Gurudev Pujya Swam Lilashahji Maharaj while extolling Gita used to say, The Gita is a wonderful scripture for the all round development of life. It contains divine ways for the welfare off all human beings belonging to all notations and all races. Therefore we all should bathe our salvers in the knowledge of Gita. The Gita which gives worldly pleasures and liberation while developing divine qualities like detachment fearlessness etc. as well is a matchless scripture in the world.’
We all should pledge on this occasion of Gita jay nit that we shall propagate the divine knowledge and significance of Gita in the society. We will memorize the shloka of gita along with read and listen to the various commentaries on the Gita by self realized saints and also earnestly strive to propagate the same all over. We should hold Gita shloka memorizing contests and levitate tests on the pious occasion of Gita juayanti.
Gita is the only scripture of the world whose anniversary is celebrated. It we want to keep our culture alive to instill the sprit it of nationalism into people by inculcating the virtues then we should celebrate such festivals and occasions like Gita juayanti with great jubilation.
The impotence of festivals should be taught to the people by including intent the syllabi of the students by mantes of religious stories incase of householders and to the society by means of songs and acting in religious movies The young generation that has become crazy for the perverted western thought can once again take benefits of the excellent principles of India scriptures saints and culture and there by contribute in large numbers in the divine works of worlds peace and welfare.
In every Bal Sanskar Kendra the Kendra teacher should himself recite the Gita and also get it done by the children Read out its before reciting. Celebrate Gita Juayanti in this way. Continue to propagate and publicize the Bhagaved Gita around the world.
