Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 3 verse 11


Chapter 3 verse 11

“With this, you do nourish the gods and may those devas nourish you; thus nourishing one another, you shall attain the highest good.”

This summarizes sanatana dharma at its best. Sanatana Dharma encourages each individual to strive to achieve individual excellence by targeting to realize the divine in each of us. As well, there is a collective striving to do good for the world and consider all of the world as one’s family. Devas and asuras could be argued as just another race and the import of this verse is to be the best one can be and then help everyone else be good as well. This is the divine mission anyways. To spread goodness and happiness in the world.
