"Tell me of those who always live in Wisdom ..


Krishna And Arjuna
 ARJUNA: " Tell me of those who always live in wisdom, ever aware of the self  Oh Krishna; How do they talk, How sit, How move about?

KRISHNA: "They live in Wisdom, who see themselves in All and All in them, whose love for the lord of love has consumed every selfish desire & sense craving, tormenting the heart. Not agitated by grief, or hankering after pleasure, they live free from lust and fear and anger.
Fettered no more by selfish attachments, they're not elated by good fortune or depressed by bad.
Such are the SEERS.


Even as a tortoise draws in its limbs, the wise draw in their senses at will.
Though aspirants abstain from sense pleasures, they will still crave for them. These cravings all disappear when they see the lord of Love.

For even those who tread the Path, the stormy senses can sweep off the mind, but they live in wisdom who subdue them, and keep their minds ever absorbed in me.

When you keep thinking of sense objects, Attachment comes. Attachment breeds Desire.
The lust of possessions which when thwarted, burns to Anger.
Anger clouds the Judgement; you can no longer learn from your past mistakes.
Lost is the power to choose between the wise and the unwise, and your life is utter waste.

But when you move amidst the World of sense, from both Attachment and Aversion Freed, there comes the peace in which 'All Sorrows' end and you live in the Wisdom of the self.

ARJUNA :  The Disunited Mind is far from wise, How can it meditate? How be at Peace?
When you know no peace, How can you Know joy?


When you let the mind heed the siren call of the senses, they will carry away your better judgement, as storms drive a boat off its safe - charted course to certain doom.

Use all your power to set the senses free from attachment & aversion alike.
And live in the Full Wisdom of the self.
Such a sage awakes to light in the night of all creatures.
That which the world calls day, is the night of ignorance to the wise.

As the rivers flow into the ocean, but cannot make the vast ocean overflow, so flow the magic streams of the sense - world, into the sea of peace that is the sage.

They are forever free who breakaway from the Ego - Cage of " I " , " Me", and " Mine",
to be united with the lord of love.
This is the supreme state. Attain to this and pass from death to Immortality.
