In this video, Om Swami talks about an introduction to the Srimad Bhagavad Gita. There are eighteen chapters in the Bhagavad Gita. Bhagavad means a person who is like God and the meaning of Geeta is- the song of God, he says. The Bhagavad Gita has been given the status of Upanishad. Om Swami says that only four people speak in the Bhagavad Gita and they are Dhritharashtra, Sanjay, Arjun and Krishna.
In the Bhagavad Gita Dritarashtra represents tamas, Sanjay-Sattva, Arjun-rajas and Krishna who is beyond these attributes represents selflessness and one without desires. Similarly, there are four stages in a person’s life to go from being a human to becoming one with god says Om Swami. Krishna tells Arjun not to share the knowledge of the Bhagavad Gita to people who don’t have devotion and reverence towards him, he says. Any person who reads the Bhagavad Gita just like a book will not be able to get the essence and secret of it. Till a person does not understand it’s innermost meaning and secret it will be just a piece of dry knowledge without illuminating their lives in any way says Om Swami. Krishna says that when he grants his grace, he changes the very thought process of a devotee, due to which wrong actions don’t even get performed, as all actions get performed only with the start of a thought.
