Death defying Acts-Part 29—The Secret of Winners

Embodiments of Love!

In India there is a well of knowledge and with reason ancestors have kept them in the abyss;
Purpose is that if one person is serious he/she certainly would get to that sphere; that is the secret of nature

In the Bible I have support to my theory

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you: For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened. ---Mathew 7.7

Let us see what my friend Krishna says:

yam yam vapi smaran bhavam

tyajaty ante kalevaram

tam tam evaiti kaunteya

sada tad-bhava-bhavitah--------------------Bhagavad Gita Chapter 8-slogam 6

The simple meaning for ordinary people like rajagopal:

Whatever state of being one remembers when he quits the body, that state he will attain without fail

But as usual I was not convinced; when Krishna was advising Arjuna to live this life he would not refer to death and next birth;

See below

Kalevaram means Body

Tyajatmeans gives up

Ante means at the end

The word” ante” is important as that word is taken as the last moment of a person and construed as death

I humbly disagree

If I have a dream and pursue it with all diversions along with body consciousness, I may not succeed

I give an example from Ramakrishna Paramahamsa:

When a person is drowned who does not know swimming, he would not think about anything except getting another lease of life; he verily forgets his body also to sustain which he struggles like anything;

So my interpretation of this slogam is:

Oh Partha, Thinking of a higher goal if a person forgets the body, at the end, he reaches/attains that goal!

Dream big!

Achieve bigger
