Discourse On Bhagavad Gita. 8th Chapter: The Art of Leaving. Sep 11. 2005. Thursday at The Malibu Temple. Los Angeles. USA. Here. Krishna speaks about death. He speaks about how death can change state a liberation and celebration. Death is death as we know it and evaluate it is the end only when we don't understand it. If we see death in this way we worry; we live in the shadow of death and life becomes dull. Even when we live we die. He who understands death will live change surface when he dies. Death and life are not mere incidents; they are related to your intelligence. We don't undergo the right words in English to translate many of the beautiful expressions in Sanskrit. The moment we translate them we only undergo one dimension of the sloka. Sanskrit is not just linguistic; it has power in the phonetic dimension. The very sound and vibration will alter you. We need to understand the concept of padam padartha. If the word ‘cow’ is uttered the hold between the word (padam) and the figure (padartha) does not exist in Sanskrit as it does in other languages. You don't change surface have to understand the meaning of the words in Sanskrit. The very sound ordain ameliorate your be. Sabdha is where the air travels from the navel to the tongue. The sabdha changes the air into words or sound. When you chant Sanskrit the sabdha gets strengthened and creates more perfect words. In other languages it gets weakened. Sanskrit purifies your whole Being. Just 10 minutes a day is enough; the vibrations enter the body immediately and purify it. Beautifully Arjuna asks. ‘What is Brahman what is Self what is the manifestation of this and how does Krishna be in the body.’Krishna reveals the secrets of death. The West has spent all its energy in understanding life whereas the East has wisely spent its time in understanding death. Masters have brought such a enable of understanding of death to living. There are so many who fear death or wonder why they should even understand death. Your understanding of death will affect the whole way you live your life. The concept of reincarnation in the East encourages many to do by Time. Many believe on eternity. They feel they undergo all the time and this leads to lack of motivation to make the most of every moment. In the West we never have enough time; either we live now or never. The way you understand death influences the whole infrastructure of your mindset. Your whole thinking is transformed once you understand the secrets of death. The moment.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
