Thoughts on The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 3: Verse 27 - Verse 29)

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, The Bearded Mystic Podcast discusses the 3rd chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, specifically verses 27 - 29. Sri Krishna guides Arjuna that nature has a hold over us, the three gunas have an impact and therefore, we get confused that we are the body. The more we understand that we are the Atman through a humble inquiry, we understand that we transcend the ego respectfully and rest in the Atman. With the understanding that we are the atman, the gunas of the senses will not lead the seeker away, they understand the compulsions for more material satisfaction but will remain detached. Sri Krishna wants us to understand that we should not disturb those who are deluded by the forces of nature, the gunas as their intellect is not sharpened by discernment. Translation used: The Bhagavad Gita Comes Alive: A Radical Translation by Jeffrey Armstrong Available here on AmazonIf you would like to dwell deeper in the Bhagavad Gita, I recommend Swami Gambhirananda's translation with Adi Shankara ji's commentary: Available here on AmazonI hope you enjoyed listening to the 26th episode of the Thoughts on The Bhagavad Gita and if you are interested in listening to more episodes like this on further chapters and verses, or on Non-Duality, or you want to learn more about the wisdom of the Mystics please follow/subscribe to this Podcast.Please rate and write a review for this Podcast on https://www.thebeardedmysticpodcast.com/reviews/new/ it will be greatly appreciated.New episodes will be available every Sunday.If you would like to attend a free weekly meditation with me, join my Whatsapp group:https://chat.whatsapp.com/DcdnuDMeRnW53E0seVp28bSubscribe to the free monthly The Bearded Mystic Newsletter: http://thebeardedmysticpodcast.substack.comSubscribe to The Bearded Mystic Podcast Communityhttps://www.patreon.com/thebeardedmysticpodcastYou can find links to Live Streams, Podcast, Videos etc: https://linktr.ee/thebeardedmystSupport the showSupport me via Paypal: https://www.paypal.biz/beardedmysticJoin our Discord Server: https://discord.gg/hnRf7wESwXVisit my website: https://www.thebeardedmysticpodcast.com/Want a one-on-one spiritual discussion with The Bearded Mystic - book here: https://www.thebeardedmysticpodcast.com/p/spiritual-discussion/You can follow me and contact me on social media:TikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdk3HPJh/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebeardedmysticpodcast/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheBeardedMysticPodcast/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Bearded-Mystic-PodcastBluesky:  https://bsky.app/profile/beardedmystic.bsky.socialBecome a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/thebeardedmysticpodcast
