from Bhagavad Gita - Swami Sarvapriyananda · host Vedanta Society of New York - Archives

Swami Sarvapriyananda continues teaching verse 6 from the fifteenth chapter, entitled Purushottama Yoga, the Yoga of the Supreme Being, of the Bhagavad Gita. This series of talks by Swami Sarvapriyananda on the Bhagavad Gita, 'the Song of God,' unfolds the highest truths of Vedanta.____________Chapter 15, Verse 7ममैवांशो जीवलोके जीवभूत: सनातन: |मन:षष्ठानीन्द्रियाणि प्रकृतिस्थानि कर्षति || 7||mamaivānśho jīva-loke jīva-bhūtaḥ sanātanaḥmanaḥ-ṣhaṣhṭhānīndriyāṇi prakṛiti-sthāni karṣhatiThe embodied souls in this material world are My eternal fragmental parts. But bound by material nature, they are struggling with the six senses including the mind.____________Chapter 15, Verse 8शरीरं यदवाप्नोति यच्चाप्युत्क्रामतीश्वर: |गृहीत्वैतानि संयाति वायुर्गन्धानिवाशयात् || 8||śharīraṁ yad avāpnoti yach chāpy utkrāmatīśhvaraḥgṛihītvaitāni sanyāti vāyur gandhān ivāśhayātAs the air carries fragrance from place to place, so does the embodied soul carry the mind and senses with it, when it leaves an old body and enters a new one.____________Chapter 15, Verse 9श्रोत्रं चक्षु: स्पर्शनं च रसनं घ्राणमेव च |अधिष्ठाय मनश्चायं विषयानुपसेवते || 9||śhrotraṁ chakṣhuḥ sparśhanaṁ cha rasanaṁ ghrāṇam eva chaadhiṣhṭhāya manaśh chāyaṁ viṣhayān upasevateUsing the sense perceptions of the ears, eyes, skin, tongue, and nose, which are grouped around the mind, the embodied soul savors the objects of the senses.
