Bhagavad Gita Chapter 9: Krishna, the Divine Supreme

Krishna then proceeds to enunciate profound, confidential and easy-to-practice wisdom that can release one from all miseries. “I pervade this cosmic manifestation in entirety; create and sustain beings, who all dwell in Me, but they do not influence me. At the end of an epoch, all lives merge in My material energy and manifest again in the next, as I keep creating life forms, as per their nature. Still, I remain detached from these actions. But when I Myself appear here in personal form, delusion prevents people from recognizing Me, and they become atheists and behave accordingly. But great souls know this Krishna as the ultimate source, cultivate knowledge, and worship Me with love and devotion. Some also pray to My infinite manifestations. Further, I am all things and their essence, both matter and spirit, from Vedas and rituals to the offerings; whereas I also remain the Father, Mother, Master, Sustainer, Purifier, Friend and the sacred ‘Om.’ I am the eternal seed, origin, end, and the Supreme goal, while I only shine as the Sun and pour down as rain.    Those performing sacrifices and worshipping Me get purified of sins and enjoy celestial pleasures in heaven. But once their merits get over, they return to this world, and this entry-exit process continues.      However, I provide for and sustain all those ever absorbed in Me, whereas those devoid of this realization of My divinity have to be born again. But My devotees are sure to come only to me!   But it is enough if one offers Me just a leaf, flower, fruit or even water with love, devotion and pure consciousness; I would accept it delightfully. And whatever you do, Oh Parth, perform all actions as offerings to Me. For, this dedication will free you of all bondages, and you can be liberated and reach Me through attachment only to Me.     My worship can turn even worst sinners virtuous and grant them peace; for, none of My devotees ever go astray. And all those surrendering to me irrespective of their social standings, reach their lives’ supreme goal. So, in this fleeting and painful world, think, revere and worship Me with body and mind, and be assured, you would come only to Me!” If you would like to find out more about your chart or have a question about astrology you would love the answer to, please do connect with us at www.astroved.com Follow AstroVed on IG, Twitter, and FB @AstroVed
