Chapter 3 verse 16
“He, who does not follow here the
wheel thus set revolving, is of sinful life, rejoicing in the senses. He lives
in vain”
There are 3 aspects I would like
to draw attention for us to reflect.
- What is a sin and what is a good deed? Any act which is not in interest of “self” understanding and doesn’t help community/society/country or world progress in the righteous direction is a sin. Everything else is good. Sin is not putting the senses to good use.
- What is a fruitful life lived? A life which avoids sinful activities discussed above and that which helps oneself towards goal of Moksha and broader societal benefit is a fruitful life
- What is the wheel of life? Virtuous wheel of life is for human beings to help nature do their activities without selfish motives. Vicious wheel of life is where human being disrupts the nature of the world and creates chaos and havoc by pursuing selfish motives. The life wheel is peaceful coexistence of all beings on earth in harmony with one’s own true nature and broader nature and nature’s laws.
