Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, 8 & 9 VCD

“Krishna is like a common thread in which all the beads of Jivas are woven.
Krishna is the truth, the consciousness, the all pervasive…”

In continuation to chapter 5 & 6, about Karma Sanyas Yoga and Aatma Sanyas Yoga, this set contains the expositions of chapter 7, 8 & 9 of Shrimad Bhagavad Gita by Anandmurti Gurumaa. These enlightening explanations dispel the darkness of ignorance and illuminate the lamp of wisdom.

Seventh chapter titled Vigyana Yoga unravels the true nature (swaroopa) of Krishna, and explains in detail about the play of his illusory energy called Maya and how with the predominance of this Maya, an individual tends to forget God. It also reveals the nature of gunas and the role they play in deluding the Jiva, the individual. In the end, Gurumaa explains that the darshan of a gyani is the darshan of Krishna, as they are the reflections of the Lord.

Eighth chapter titled Akshara Parabrahma Yoga establishes the fact that the vision of gyana gives an understanding of the Brahman and one needs to be steadfast in sadhana to attain salvation. In this chapter, Gurumaa has explained how the last thought of the person at the moment of death determines the next birth of the Jiva and only the one who has lived his life in devotion to the Lord is able to remember him at the time of Death. Besides divulging the right method of doing Omkar, Gurumaa also delineated the way to be in continuous contemplation of Krishna.

Before beginning chapter 9, Gurumaa has taken up the explanation of three shlokas of chapter 10 as they are necessary to understand, to get a deeper insight into the gyana. So the discourse begins with the glory of immense unconditional love for the Lord and Guru.

Ninth chapter titled Rajvidya Rajguhya Yoga divulges the esoteric wisdom of the creation, sustenance and destruction of this samsara. Lord Krishna revealed this treasure of gyana to Arjuna because he became free from the flaws of the mind by worshipping the Lord with devotion & love. And only the seeker who removes the flaws with determined sadhana can contemplate on this gyana and attain salvation. While explaining this chapter, Gurumaa has stated that this wisdom given by Krishna is supreme, mysterious, and sacred, and it bestows direct benefit to the seeker with a pure mind and heart who has firm faith.
