Lord Krishna - Bhagavad Gita

Lord Krishna of Hinduism... the Messiah of Hindu religion was almost like Brahman (termed God Almighty) in human form! Lord Krishna was an avatar of his era (God manifest in human form)... something that eludes most human beings! However best one may try still, people ask world over... Who is Krishna... did Krishna really exsist?

Yes... Lord Krishna did exist during Dwapar Yuga... about 3600 years before now! Having realized God in 1993 I can emphatically say with hundred percent confidence that not alone Lord Krishna existed but his manifesting a life form as an avatar (God manifest in human form) was a necessity of those times. In absence of Lord Krishna humanity simply could not have survived the rigors of day-to-day life!

The coming of an avatar of an era is always necessitated by prevailing circumstances! In present times... when faith amongst each other has reached its lowest ebb... patience, persistence and perseverance is nowhere be seen... it is only the might of an avatar... a Messiah who can turn around the situation!

While playing lawn tennis when the ball goes flat... someone has to pick the ball and again bounce it for play to start! It is not within the capability of man gods like Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed to lift this ball from ground zero! At this point the power of a man God coupled with powers of an able administrator (a Chanakya) is necessitated.

In the history of mankind it would be difficult to find a more able administrator than Chanakya (a Hindu administrator)... one who got hundred Kings put to death in a day to save lives of thousands of soldiers fighting across borders. As per sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism to save the lives of many if one who has sinned is put to death... it is never considered a sin!

Such an act never bonds one with a karmic balance! Lord Krishna was an avatar of Dwapar Yuga... in present times people await the coming of Bhagavan Kalki... a Messiah of present era! The annihilator of Kali Yuga would be termed Bhagwan Kalki... one who reestablishes Dharma (righteousness) against the evil forces of adharma (lawlessness).

The powers of an avatar of an era are beyond the comprehension of most human beings... the prime reason why humanity termed such human beings as Bhagwan or Lord! One amongst us in times of need rises to the situation and exhibits phenomenal powers... something like 1000 Joan of arcs descending on the scene simultaneously!

No man God or human God can ever equal powers of an avatar of an era! Every man God... every human God... is a spiritual master... a perfect human being who has reached the stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana). Such enlightened masters can decipher to mankind the principles of spirituality but in matters of administration... they would turn bitter failures!

This is how God Almighty... termed Brahman in Hinduism bid the cosmic system to be! In situations of strife when things go beyond control... none other than an avatar of an era can set things right! People await with fervor the coming of Bhagavan Kalki... but none world over wants to indulge in proper karma... positive karma that is expected of most human beings!

Most human beings particularly in India feel that coming of Bhagavan Kalki would benefit them! We fail to realize that our destiny is molded by our karma and nobody else! Unless we indulge in positive karma, Punya karma all the time... we can never reap the benefits of good karma ever! Indulgence in good karma all the time is the mantra for living a more graceful and peaceful life!

In sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism Lord Krishna exhorts all human beings to exert karma at their best! If we truly desire manifesting destiny ever in life... we need controlling our karma... the base input! It is by controlling our karma... finally overcoming it... human beings reached the stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) forever.

Unless we perform... unless we indulge in good karma all the time... our manifesting the human form is a disgrace! In present times... in the present metal age... the Dark Age it sometimes becomes difficult to distinguish human beings from animals! We sometimes stoop so low that the very purpose of a soul atman manifesting a human form seemed lost!

As stated by Lord Krishna in sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism... The human form is the highest manifest stage in cosmic life cycle! It is only in human form our atman soul finally liberates self from cycle of birth and death forever... regains its lost original pure prime pristine primordial form... which was never possible otherwise!

As per Lord Krishna human beings were meant to support our atman soul in reaching the cosmic end of life at the earliest. The coming of Lord Krishna symbolized the efficacy of human form on Mother Earth! No human form... no soul atman could liberate self from cycle of birth and death ever. Every atman soul needs a human body to cleanse itself of the dross impurities within!

Indulgence in Krishna consciousness all the time is the essence of life! It is only when we indulge in Krishna consciousness... the meaning of life becomes clear to us! It is only by belief in Lord Krishna one finally assimilates the teachings contained in sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism. Without faith in Lord Krishna... nothing in Bhagavad Gita can ever be understood!

The prime reason why most of our prayers go unanswered by God Almighty! The reason being... we do not faith in God Almighty all the time. It is only in the times of need we remember God Almighty (termed Brahman in Hinduism). When happy... when experiencing happiness how many remember God Almighty nee Brahman?

Lord Krishna is epitome of spirituality... the end goal of life! If Lord Krishna did not exist... neither would have Bhagavad Gita... the foremost of all sacred Scriptures existing on Mother Earth! The sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism... the doctrine given to mankind by Lord Krishna in the battle of Mahabharata is necessitated for gaining enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) in present life time.

Truthfully speaking the doctrine of Bhagavad Gita given by Lord Krishna is the only Scripture available on Mother Earth following which human beings gained enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) in their lifetime. In absence of Lord Krishna or Bhagavad Gita... no atman soul would ever reach its logistical end... the 8.4 millionth manifestation... the last in the cosmic life cycle!

The pearls of wisdom contained in Bhagavad Gita... the doctrine given to mankind by Lord Krishna in the battle of Mahabharata between Pandavas and Kauravas... entails that our soul atman is the only essence of life! As per Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita it is our soul atman that is on its cosmic journey of 8.4 million manifestations... an earthly life cycle of 96.4 million years!

As per Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita of its own no soul atman can ever purify itself similar as one KG of pure gold sandwiched in hundred KG lump of gold ore cannot extract itself of its own and requires external mining machinery and processes. Similarly every soul atman requires manifesting a series of 8.4 million bodies to cleanse itself of the dross impurities within!

Understanding Bhagavad Gita... the essence of which can never be understood literally forms the core of every human life! It is Bhagavad Gita that exhorts human beings to travel the spiritual path which is an ardent desire of our soul atman! Dominated by a bloated ego... the wanton desires and greed for materialistic riches most human beings look the other way!

In the circumstances can we ever expect such human beings nearing the stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) ever? It is only by indulgence in positive karma... maintaining a sunny disposition and godly thinking most human beings finally reached the stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and salvation (moksha). Both enlightenment and salvation is not that easily achieved as most human beings think!

For living the present ephemeral phase of life... the life span of 70 to 80 years one need not follow the teachings of Bhagavad Gita... the doctrine given to mankind by Lord Krishna in Toto! The teachings contained in Ramayana... the great Indian epic that summarizes the life of maryada Purushottam Rama suffices for living the present life peacefully!

For knowing our true inner self... the real self of us... for realizing our soul atman... the spirit within one need unveiling the truths contained in sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism without which spiritual path can never be traveled successfully!

Whomever it is right from level of Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ, Prophet Mohammed, Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa or Maharishi Ramana... all gained enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) following the precepts contained in Bhagavad Gita... the summarized teachings of Lord Krishna!

For reaching God Almighty (termed Brahman in Hinduism)... following the teachings contained in sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism is a sure shot method... something that can never be avoided! The teachings of Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita form the ultimate of life. Right from the stage of big bang to the dissolution of cosmos... all is explained in Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism.

The doctrine of Bhagavad Gita given by Lord Krishna is the foremost of all Scriptures of Hinduism. Bhagavad Gita can also be rightly termed as the most holy book of Hinduism... something even more precious than the Vedas and Upanishads. No doubt Upanishads (independent treatises) also form core of Hinduism but Bhagavad Gita contains all worth knowing.

The knower of Bhagavad Gita finally becomes the knower of all... gains omniscience for all practical purposes! The Hindu God Krishna... an epitome of spirituality... details all that is worth knowing in the field of spirituality... the uncharted spiritual path! Beyond Bhagavad Gita there is nothing that needs to be assimilated by a serious seeker of spirituality.

In the 700 shlokas verses contained in Bhagavad Gita... Lord Krishna has encapsulated the wisdom of the ages... something that never ages with time. The sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism... the doctrine given to mankind by Lord Krishna holds the same merit today as in earlier times. With passage of time only the interpretation changes... never the essence or the teachings!

The most magnificent part of Bhagavad Gita is... it never ages with time! The teachings of Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita are sacrosanct! For reaching God Almighty... for gaining enlightenment it is only the path of Bhagavad Gita that holds well. Both enlightenment and salvation can never be gained via path of Christianity or Islamic Dharma!

Any human being world over desiring to reach stage of enlightenment and salvation needs following teachings of Bhagavad Gita ceremoniously. Enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and salvation (moksha) can never be gained by any path other than Hinduism. The core teachings of Hinduism hold the same value on Mother Earth as that of a soul atman in the human body!

Human beings gaining enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) on Mother Earth is ample proof that Lord Krishna existed on Mother Earth. Those who ask... did Lord Krishna ever exist are ignorant in matters of spirituality! The coming of Lord Krishna was necessitated for human beings to understand the absolute truths of life... the truth of our real self... the spirit within!
