Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary Chapter 2 verse 52


Chapter 2 verse 52

“When your intellect crosses the mire of delusion, you shall attain to indifference as to what has been heard and what is yet to be heard”

Krishna describes the state of living constantly in the meditation of the Self which goes beyond the body, mind, Intellect and beyond Sattva, Rajas and Tamo gunas. The external environment- people and material things don’t affect the person anymore. This state makes the person indifferent to what people would say or do. Not because they don’t care, their empathy and compassion are at such high levels that they completely understand the other person’s perspectives and don’t get affected by pair of opposites as mentioned in prior slokas. The delusion mentioned here is that we are one’s body, mind and intellect. We are not and it has to be an experiential reality. For now, let’s fake it to make it!
