On this page we provide eleven shlokas
for daily chanting. The first shloka is part of the Gita Dhyana Shlokas,
and is for expressing our respect for Bhagwad Gita as such, and the
next ten are from Bhagwad Gita itself. They have been selected by Poojya Guruji
from the entire Gita, and shall help a devotee to invoke the grace of Lord
Krishna, and remember the real message of Gita. We suggest that these
shlokas should become part of a devotees daily prayers,
and efforts should be made to bring the meaning too in the mind.
You can
even hear the chanting of these 11 shlokas in Poojya Guruji’s voice. Visit
our
VM Podcast Page
for more audio file links. You have the
facility to hear these shlokas online either at
Clickcaster or at
Podomatic.
Dhyana Shloka of
Gita :-
Meaning : Bhagwad Gita is that with
which Sri Narayana himself enlightened Partha (Arjuna). It was incorporated
in Mahabharata by the ancient Sage Sri Veda Vyasa. Gita showers the
nectarine philosophy of Advaita, and its physical structure is its eighteen
chapters. O Blessed Mother ! I constantly meditate
on thee, you indeed are the antidote to the
ever-tricky & disastrous problem of our deep-rooted sense of limitation
& seeking (Bhava).
Some Important Shlokas of Gita :-
-1-
Meaning : Dhritrashtra asks Sanjaya :
O Sanjaya! What did the sons of Pandu and my people, desirous to fight, do
when they assembled together at the holy place of Kurukshetra.
-2-
Meaning : Your freedom is only in the
field of action, and not in the field of bringing about the fruits of
action. Never take yourself as the cause of bringing about a karma-phala
(situation), and never resort to a life of inaction.
-3-
Meaning : O Partha! When a person
roots out all the desires in his mind, and is totally satisfied in himself
and by himself then he is known as ‘Sthitha Pragnya’, a man of steady
wisdom.
-4-
Meaning : O Bharata! Whenever there is
fall in righteousness & rise in unrighteousness, then I manifest myself
in this world.
-5-
Meaning : I pervade each &
everything of this perceptible world with my unmanifest form. All the
beings of the world are in me, but I do not depend on any of them.
-6-
Meaning : Those who with great devotion
worship me, knowingly fully well that I am not different from them, to
those ever-associated devotees I provide all that they need to have and
protect for them all that needs to be protected.
-7-
Meaning : O Kuntiputra! Whatever you
do, eat, offer as oblations, give, and for whatever you perform any
austerities, may you offer all that to me alone.
-8-
Meaning : May you fix your mind upon
me, be devoted to me, perform sacrifices for me, bow down to me, you shall,
surely then come to me. This truly I promise unto you, because you are so
dear to me.
-9-
Meaning : Negating all the imposed
qualities of your body-mind etc on your self, surrender to me alone. Grieve
not, I shall free you from all sins.
-10-
Meaning : When someone like Lord Krishna, the
master of Yoga & embodiment of knowledge, and a sincere devotee like
Arjuna, come together, there shall be all kind of prosperity, victory,
happiness & steady resolve, this is my conviction.
