Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 18 verse 36

 Chapter 18 verse 36               

“And now hear from me, O Arjuna, of the three kinds of happiness in which the embodied soul rejoices, and can even reach the end of all suffering.” 

Motive for all action and will/determination to act is happiness and avoidance of sorrow. Hence the next logical question is what are the different modes of happiness one can achieve through action or otherwise. Bhagwan just like the greatest marketer in the world, promises the mother of all knowledge which will end all suffering. If you thought modern day rabble rousers are one of a kind, one just needs to take a look at the grand standing Bhagwan offers in this verse. The promise of el dorado or utopia! Now that Bhagwan Krishna has Arjuna’s attention drawn again, he will go on to enumerate the three modes of happiness.
