Srimad Bhagavadgita Sadhaka Sanjivani -Swami Ramsukhdas
Chapter 11
But, when they found their efforts futile,the Lord raised the mount up, with His finger. So, if a man by becoming an instmment in the Lord's hands, without having pride of his power, and without having a desire for the fruit of his actions, performs his duty, he may attain salvation. A striver, meets with failure, due to his pride. If he does not have pride, he can attain salvation, instantly. The pride in his efforts, is a stumbling block to his attainment. Therefore, the Lord advises Arjuna, not to feel proud, but regard it as His grace. Whatever is to happen will certainly, happen. It cannot be checked by a man, with his power. So, he should remain equanimous, in whatever happens, as a result of his actions. By doing so, he will attain salvation, because bondage, damnation to hell and degradation, to eighty-four lac species, is the result of misdeeds, whereas salvation, liberation, beatitude and divine love etc., are natural and self-evident.
