PREFACE
SANATAN DHARM? ... It is the conduct that unites with God.
WAR? ... “War” is the conflict between the riches of divinity and the devilish hoard that represent the two distinct, contradictory impulses of the mind and heart. Its final consequence is the annihilation of both.
KSHETR? ... The word means “sphere.” The sphere where the above war is fought is the human body, a composite of the mind along with senses.
GYAN? ... The word means “knowledge/discernment.” Direct perception of God is knowledge.
YOG? ... Attainment to the Supreme Spirit who is beyond worldly attachment and repulsion is yog.
GYAN YOG? ... The Way of Knowledge or Discrimination. Worship and meditation are action. Embarking on this action with reliance upon one’s own prowess and ability is the Way of knowledge.
NISHKAM KARM YOG? ... The Way of Selfless Action. Setting upon action with dependence on an accomplished teacher and total selfsurrender is the Way of Selfless Action.
THE TRUTH REVEALED ... Krishn has revealed the same truth which seer-sages had perceived before him and which they will perceive hereafter.
