87. Bhagavad Gita I Chapter 6 Verses 33-35 I Swami Sarvapriyananda

Swami Sarvapriyananda teaches Verses 33-35 from the Sixth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita. This series of talks unfolds the highest truths of Vedanta through the study of "The song of God". 🔆Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 6, Verses 33: अर्जुन उवाच | योऽयं योगस्त्वया प्रोक्त: साम्येन मधुसूदन | एतस्याहं न पश्यामि चञ्चलत्वात्स्थितिं स्थिराम् || 33|| arjuna uvācha yo ’yaṁ yogas tvayā proktaḥ sāmyena madhusūdana etasyāhaṁ na paśhyāmi chañchalatvāt sthitiṁ sthirām 🔴 Arjuna said: O Slayer of Madhu! Owing to the fickleness of the mind, I find no way of firm establishment in spiritual communion through equanimity as instructed by you. 🔆Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 6, Verses 34: चञ्चलं हि मन: कृष्ण प्रमाथि बलवद्दृढम् | तस्याहं निग्रहं मन्ये वायोरिव सुदुष्करम् || 34|| chañchalaṁ hi manaḥ kṛiṣhṇa pramāthi balavad dṛiḍham tasyāhaṁ nigrahaṁ manye vāyor iva su-duṣhkaram 🔴 O Krsna! Verily, the mind is fickle, turbulent, powerful and unyielding. To control it, I think, is as difficult as controlling the wind itself. 🔆Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 6, Verses 35: श्रीभगवानुवाच | असंशयं महाबाहो मनो दुर्निग्रहं चलम् | अभ्यासेन तु कौन्तेय वैराग्येण च गृह्यते || 35|| śhrī bhagavān uvācha asanśhayaṁ mahā-bāho mano durnigrahaṁ chalam abhyāsena tu kaunteya vairāgyeṇa cha gṛihyate 🔴 The Blessed Lord said: O mighty armed one! Undoubtedly the mind is fickle and difficult to be checked. Yet, O son of Kunti, it can be brought under control by dispassion and spiritual practice. 🙏 Please Support the Vedanta Society of New York http://www.vedantany.org/donate 🌐 Please Visit Us Website: https://vedantany.org Apple & Spotify Podcasts: https://www.vedantany.org/media-channels YouTube (Main Channel):    / @vedantany   YouTube (Archives):    / @vedantanyarchives   Facebook:   / vedantany   X / Twitter:   / vedantany   📙 Books by Swami Sarvapriyananda https://www.vedantany.org/swamis-books Lecture Series by Swami Sarvapriyananda 📓 Introductory Lectures: https://www.vedantany.org/introductor... 📚 Vedanta Scriptures: https://www.vedantany.org/by-scriptures 🧩 Lectures by Topics: https://www.vedantany.org/by-topic 💬 AskSwami Q&A: https://www.vedantany.org/ask-swami-qa 📖 Scriptures Taught by Swami Sarvapriyananda    • Aparokshanubhuti | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Bhagavad Gita | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Brihadaranyaka Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriy...      • Dṛg Dṛśya Viveka | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna | Swami Sarv...      • Isha Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Katha Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Kena Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Mandukya Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Mundaka Upanishad | Swami Sarvapriyananda      • Vedantasara of Sadananda | Swami Sarvapriy...   🪔 About Vedanta Vedanta is among the world’s oldest spiritual philosophies and one of its most inclusive.
