brahma-bhutah prasannatma
na sochati na kanksati। samah sarveshu bhutesu mad-bhaktim labhate param॥ 18.54 ॥ |
Sri Krishna said: O Arjuna, One who is thus transcendentally situated at once realizes the Supreme Brahman and becomes fully joyful. He never laments or desires to have anything. He is equally disposed toward every living entity. In that state he attains pure devotional service unto Me.
bhaktya mam abhijanati
yavan yas chasmi tattvatah। tato mam tattvato jnatva visate tad-anantaram॥ 18.55 ॥ |
Sri Krishna said: O Arjuna, One can understand Me as I am, as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, only by devotional service. And when one is in full consciousness of Me by such devotion, he can enter into the kingdom of God.
sarva-karmany api sada
kurvano mad-vyapasrayah। mat-prasadad avapnoti sasvatam padam avyayam॥ 18.56 ॥ |
Sri Krishna said: O Arjuna, Though engaged in all kinds of activities, My pure devotee, under My protection, reaches the eternal and imperishable abode by My grace.
cetasa sarva-karmani
mayi sannyasya mat-parah। buddhi-yogam upasritya mac-cittah satatam bhava॥ 18.57 ॥ |
Sri Krishna said: O Arjuna, In all activities just depend upon Me and work always under My protection. In such devotional service, be fully conscious of Me.
