1. The Blessed
Lord said:With the mind intent on Me, O Partha, practising Yoga, and finding
refuge in Me, how in full without doubt thou shalt know Me that do thou
hear.The Yogins mind is intent on Me, the Supreme Lord, possessed of such
attributes as will be mentioned below. He pratises Yoga or steadfastness
of mind and finds refuge in Me alone, the Supreme Lord. He who seeks a human
end resorts to some action such as Agnihotra, or to an austerity, or to
a gift or as a means of attaining that end. They Yogin, on the other hand;
resorts to Me alone, abandoning all other means, with his thought intent
on Me alone. Now, listen to what I am going to say as to how you also, thus
acting, will, without doubt, know Me in full, possessed of infinite greatness,
strength, power, grace and other attributes; you will know Me undoubtingly,
that The Lord is so and so only: |
