Yatharth Geeta -Swami Adgadanand Ji

CHAPTER 17 The Yog of Threefold Faith सद्भावे साधुभावे च सदित्येतत्प्रयुज्यते। प्रशस्ते कर्मणि तथा सच्छब्द: पार्थ युज्यते ॥26॥ [ “Sat is employed to express the ideas of truth and excellence, and, O Parth, the word is also used to denote a propitious act.” ] At the beginning of the Geeta, Arjun held forth that family traditions alone were permanent and real. That provoked Krishn to ask him how he had become a victim of such a deluded notion. That which is real is never absent at any time and it cannot be annihilated, whereas that which is unreal has no existence at any time, and it cannot be otherwise. Now what is that which never has a being? Krishn affirmed while resolving these questions that the Self alone is real and also that the bodies of all living beings are perishable. The Self is eternal, imperceptible, permanent, and immortal. This is the paramount truth.
