Shree Krishna's SPECIAL GRACE Upon You Through His Avatar | Gita BG 4.8 | Swami Mukundananda

What is Shree Krishna's special grace when he takes the Avatar? Swami Mukundananda explains the deep meaning of Bhagavad Gita Verse 4.8. Shree Krishna states that God descends in the world for 3 reasons 1) To annihilate the wicked. 2) To protect the pious. 3) To establish dharma. However, if we closely study these three points, none of the three reasons seem very convincing:
- To protect the righteous. God is seated in the hearts of his devotees and always protects them from within. There is no need to take an Avatar for this purpose.
- To annihilate the wicked. God is all-powerful and can kill the wicked merely by wishing it. Why should he have to take an Avatar to accomplish this?
- To establish dharma. Dharma is eternally described in the Vedas. God can reestablish it through a Saint; he does not need to descend himself, in his personal form, to accomplish this.
How then do we make sense of the reasons that have been stated in this verse? Let’s delve a little deeper in this video to grasp the import of what Shree Krishna is stating.
