Gita Study Group Aug 29, 2021: Slokas 2.62-2.67 (continuing) State of calmness - Move from 'what' to 'so what?' All ads appeal to emotions + senses, not intellect. Raga - attachment for future Bhaya - for future krodha - for present. VSN - Bhutha Bhavya Bhavat Prabhuh! Desire is an outcome of attachment. Dwelling & attachment - we need to work somewhere in between them to manage the 'ladder of downfall'. Discernment is the power that would let us break the loop. Langanam parama aushadam - at thought, speech and action levels. Mind is your servant. Senses are the servants of the servant! Shadrasa /navarasa to rama rasa. 3-kaama, 4 - krodha leading to jealousy or matsarya or lobha leading to arrogance and 5 - moha is delusion. Cause & effect: thinking about objects -> attachment -> desires -> 2klm3 -> loss of mind /no knowledge acquisition. In relationships - expectations not met gives rise to anger. This is also 'attachment'. Discernment - violent thoughts, Sravana - manana - nidhidhyasanam needs shama, dama. Nidhidhyasanam is digesting the food. How should one think about rituals?
