Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary Chapter 2 verse 71-72


Chapter 2 verse 71-72

“That man attains peace who, abandoning all desires, moves about without longing, without sense of ‘I-ness’ and ‘my-ness’. This is the Braahmika state. Attaining this, none is deluded, being established therein, even at end of life, one attains to oneness with Brahman””

This state for a person when they get eternal peace due to abandoning of all desires without any clinging to the ego is called Braahmika state. Krishna says that if a person gets to a thoughtless, desireless state even at the end of his life, that person would not be reborn and merges with the supreme. Practically thoughtless or desireless state comes with practice and cannot be achieved in your last breadth without having practiced in your life.

“Thus, in the Upanishads of the glorious Bhagavad-Gita, in the science of the eternal, in scripture of yoga, in the dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjuna, the second discourse ends entitled: THE YOGA OF KNOWLEDGE (SANKHYA).

As I opined earlier, this becomes a chapter of knowledge for those who experience this as a reality. For all of majority others, it is a chapter of “information” or prajnapanam with need to experience this knowledge internally! This completes commentary on Chapter 2 on the auspicious day of Mahashivaratri. May divine grace flow through all of us and around us!
