Bhagwad Gita - Post 105

IX. THE YOGA OF THE KINGLY SCIENCE & THE KINGLY SECRET

Verse 12

Moghaashaa moghakarmaano
Moghajnaanaa vichetasah;
Raakshaseemaasureem chaiva
Prakritim mohineem shritaah.

Of vain hopes, of vain actions, of vain knowledge and senseless, they verily are possessed of the deceitful nature of demons and undivine beings.

Verse 13

Mahaatmaanastu maam paartha
Daiveem prakritimaashritaah; Bhajantyananyamanaso jnaatwaa Bhootaadimavyayam.

But the great souls, O Arjuna, partaking of My divine nature, worship Me with a single mind (with the mind devoted to nothing else), knowing Me as the imperishable source of beings!

Verse 14

Satatam keertayanto maam
Yatantashcha dridhavrataah;
Namasyantashcha maam
Bhaktyaa nityayuktaa upaasate.

Always glorifying Me, striving, firm in vows, prostrating before Me, they worship Me with devotion, ever steadfast.

Verse 15

Jnaanayajnena chaapyanye
Yajanto maamupaasate;
Ekatwena prithaktwena
Bahudhaa vishwatomukham.

Others also, sacrificing with the wisdom-sacrifice, worship Me, the all-faced, as one, as distinct, and as manifold.

Verse 16

Aham kraturaham yajnah Swadhaa’hamahamaushadham; Mantro’hamahamevaajyam
Ahamagniraham hutam.

I am the Kratu; I am the Yajna; I am the offering (food) to the manes; I am the medicinal herb and all the plants; I am the Mantra; I am also the ghee or melted butter; I am the fire; I am the oblation.

Verse 17

Pitaahamasya jagato maataa
Dhaataa pitaamahah;
Vedyam pavitramonkaara
Riksaama yajureva cha.

I am the father of this world, the mother, the dispenser of the fruits of actions, and the grandfather; the (one) thing to be known, the purifier, the sacred monosyllable (Om), and also the Rig-, the Sama- and Yajur Vedas.

Verse 18

Gatirbhartaa prabhuh saakshee
Nivaasah sharanam suhrit;
Prabhavah pralayah sthaanam
Nidhaanam beejamavyayam.

I am the goal, the support, the Lord, the witness, the abode, the shelter, the friend, the origin, the dissolution, the foundation, the treasure-house and the imperishable seed.

Verse 19

Tapaamyahamaham varsham Nigrihnaamyutsrijaami cha;
Amritam chaiva mrityushcha Sadasacchaahamarjuna.

(As the sun) I give heat; I withhold and send forth the rain; I am immortality and also death, existence and non-existence, O Arjuna!

Verse 20

Traividyaa maam somapaah pootapaapaa Yajnairishtwaa swargatim praarthayante;
Te punyamaasaadya surendraloka-
Mashnanti divyaan divi devabhogaan.

The knowers of the three Vedas, the drinkers of Soma, purified of all sins, worshipping Me by sacrifices, pray for the way to heaven; they reach the holy world of the Lord of the gods and enjoy in heaven the divine pleasures of the gods.

Verse 21

Te tam bhuktwaa swargalokam vishaalam
Ksheene punye martyalokam vishanti;
Evam trayeedharmamanuprapannaa
Gataagatam kaamakaamaa labhante.

They, having enjoyed the vast heaven, enter the world of mortals when their merits are exhausted; thus abiding by the injunctions of the three (Vedas) and desiring (objects of) desires, they attain to the state of going and returning.

Verse 22

Ananyaashchintayanto maam
Ye janaah paryupaasate;
Teshaam nityaabhiyuktaanaam
Yogakshemam vahaamyaham.

To those men who worship Me alone, thinking of no other, of those ever united, I secure what is not already possessed and preserve what they already possess.

Love.
