Commentary“Whosoever performs all [obligatory] acts like the study of the Vedas considering them merely as different modes of service (kainkaryam) — he is one who truly serves Me. ‘He who regards Me as the highest,’ — namely, one to whom I alone am the highest purpose in all his doings, has Me as the highest goal. ‘He who is devoted to me,’— that is, so devoted to Me that he is unable to exist without chanting My names, praising Me, meditating upon Me, worshiping Me, bowing down to Me etc., He who does these things, always considering Me as the supreme goal — he is My devotee. He is ‘free from attachments,’ as he is attached to Me alone, and is therefore unable to develop attachment to any other entity. He who is without ill-will towards any being, is one who fulfils all the following conditions — (a) his nature is to feel pleasure or pain solely on account of his union or separation from Me; (b) he considers his own transgressions (karma) to be the sole cause of his suffering (and not the work of others); (c) he is confirmed in his faith that all beings are co-dependent on the Supreme Being. For all these reasons he can have no hatred for any being.” He who has developed these qualities comes to me, that is, attains Me as I really am. The purport is that free from the least trace of ignorance and delusion, free of all faults, he becomes one who experiences Me alone. hariḥ oṃ tatsat iti śrīmad bhagavadgītāsupaniṣatsu brahma-vidyāyāṃ yoga-śāstre śrī-kṛṣṇārjuna saṃvāde viśvarūpa darśana yogo nāma ekādaśo’dhyāyaḥ Thus in the Upanishads of the Glorious Bhagavad Gita The science of the Eternal, the Scripture of Yoga The dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjuna Ends the eleventh discourse entitled “Vision of the Cosmic Form” |
