Bhagavat Gita is the divine message given by Lord Krishna to the people in the entire world, and it also acts as divine guide for us. We can carry a copy of Bhagavat Gita with us during our travels, and we must have to give great respect to the holy book, Bhagavat Gita, similar to the Christians, Holy Bible, and the Muslim’s Holy Quran.

The divine teachings of Lord Krishna, not only attracts the people of India, but also large number of foreigners are attracted by it. Various authors have written the holy Bhagavat Gita in a simplified manner, and we can also go through the beautiful contents present in the Bhagavat Gita regularly.

Lord Krishna says,

1.If you consider me as your friend, then I would act like your friend, if you consider me as an enemy, even then I would be your best friend, since whether with good or bad intention, anyhow, you are thinking only about me!

2.Those who worship me in any other form, like in the form of stone, sand and even in the form of a small dust particle would be liked by me, since their main intention is to worship the almighty as per their wish!

3.Oh my Dear Arjuna, in this Divine form, you could see the entire universe dwelling on my body. You could see the stars, planets and the celestials on my body. You could also see the sages and saints who peacefully meditates me in the mountains and forests. You could see the great Prahalada and Dhruva who always chant my glories. You could also see the powerful Adisesha, who grows bigger in size, in order to bear my weight. Oh my Dear Arjuna, whatever you see on my body, is true and real, and my divine form is my normal form. Just for the sake of others, I used to take the small form, since only the pious ones are entitled to see my “DIVINE VISWAROOPA FORM”.

4.Among the birds, I am the great Garuda, among the flowers, I am the precious and holy flower Parijata, among the women, I am the chaste and pious “ANUSUYA”, among the mountains, I am the holy Himalayas, among the demons, I am the worshipful Demon, Prahalada, among the Bhagavathas, I am the holy Rishi Narada, among the Stars, I am the respectful Dhruva Star, among the celestials, I am Lord Indra, among the Rivers, I am the Holy Ganges, among the Rishis, I am the Rishi Kapila, among the animals, I am the powerful lion, among the beverages, I am the divine nectar, “AMIRTHA”, among the demi gods, I am the wealth god, Kubera, among the precious metals, I am the glittering gold, among the serpents, I am the sacred Adisesha, I am the death god Yama Dev, who punishes the bad ones, and gives happiness to the good ones.

Among the Mantras, I am the “OM” Mantra, Among the goddesses, I am goddess Shakti Devi, Among the gods, I am the great warrior god Sri Muruga, among the seasons, I am the coolest winter season, among the physicians, I am the divine physician, Lord Dhanvantri Bhagavan, among the human nature, I am the happiness, among the sea species, I am the fish, among the insects, I am the crab, since I always insist my devotees, to tightly hold my legs, similar to the crab, which would hold its prey tightly.

5.Oh my Arjuna, believe, that I am the one, who dwells on all the souls, including on the souls of the small ants. I am the wire puller of the entire universe. I am capable of doing anything on my own, and I am not controlled by anyone. No one’s curse would affect me, but the praises of my devotees would make me to get happiness, since I always love my staunch devotees.

6.Humans are subjected to Karmas, and those who do good deeds, would get good position in the upper worlds, whereas those who do only bad deeds, would have to take several births again and again in this material world, in the form of plants, insects, animals, birds and humans.

7.Oh Arjuna, no one can escape from my watchful eyes. Sins are committed by the people very easily, in order to satisfy their needs. Some people commits bigger sins, like killing, gambling, attacking, raping, lying, cheating and disturbing others. People cannot escape from their bad karmas, but the severity of the Karmas would be reduced once if they realise their mistakes, and concentrates their attention on me.

8.All types of physical pleasures would last only for a certain period, but those who get spiritual pleasures by worshipping me, would get permanent happiness, even after their death. People cannot find fault on my creation activities, since I know better than anyone in the world, about, how to do my creation and protection activities in a very best manner.

9.A true Yogi would try to attain the divine worlds, by doing only good things in his life. He would never keep interest on perishable things, since he would be interested only to involve himself in spiritual matters. There is no re-birth for those who surrender themselves at my feet, since they dedicate their entire life towards worshipping me. Hence keep worshipping me day and night throughout your life.

“OM”
