SPECIAL BHAGAVAD GITA DAY CELEBRATION SHARING: 17.12.2010

Bhagavad Gita13.12. Let me explain That, which ought to be known, by knowing which one attains

immortality. That is the unoriginated supreme Absolute, which is described as neither cause

nor effect (in the way sense-bound objects of the experiential field are described: neither as

real nor unreal).

13.14. By Its presence, all the senses, their functions, objects and scope are revealed and

enabled to operate but It is devoid of all sensory instruments. It is the Supporting basis of all

manifestations but It is not attached or linked to anything. Indeed, It is beyond the conditions

and operations of physical and mental nature, but these constitute the objects for Its

experience or enjoyment.

13.15. That is within as well as without all manifestations. Though unmoving, It seems to be

moving. Owing to Its subtlety, It cannot be known like an object of experience. It is both far

off as well as nearby (The All-pervading Awareness).

13.16. That which has to be known is the Undivided Whole, which seems to dwell in allentities as if divided into many. It is the source and supportive basis of all manifestations, and

also their finality or doom.

13.17. The Self-effulgent Light of Awareness, enlightening all objects including luminous

ones, is said to be beyond the contamination of darkness and ignorance. That is pure

knowing, which is worthy of knowing, and which is realised through direct knowing. The

Self-effulgent Awareness is established (or shines from) within the heart of all beings.

Bhagavad Gita.

8.3. Shri Krishna said: The Indestructible, Transcendental Aliveness or Basis is called the

Absolute Brahman, and Its own reflection within existence (at macrocosmic and microcosmic

levels) is called the Indwelling Self or Immanent Life. The action through which all objects,

events and entities are brought into living existence is called cosmic activity.

8.4. Physical nature of material form is mutable and perishable while the Immanent Cosmic

Being is the One animating the evolving universe: the cosmic form comprising individual

forms. I am verily the Supreme Enlightening Being or Awareness (underlying all worship and

spiritual realisation), dwelling in the body of all embodied beings.

8.8. O Arjuna! One who is attentive, with the mind consciously resting in the present,

integrated in meditative communion, without the tendency to stray away to some object (from

that integrated awareness) such one attains the Supreme Transcendental Basis (animating

and underlying the whole of existence).
