Great post shailesh😊

I have something to mention here,it is what you said but just relating the points in detail with a small correction,plz don't mind dear this is only for better understanding!

DKDM is not just a serial of mere entertainment but we have lot to learn from it. Every sentence Shivji says in his 'Gyansabha' has a deep meaning hidden in it.

Right👏

1) Gita has once said work and love are complimentary to each other.

2) Many of us complain I cant conc. in work because I am in love.

3) a dialogue from Gita Krishna says to parth "prem aur kartavya ek dusre ko katate nahi bandhu, (laughs) ye to ek dusre ke shaktiya hai; prem bina koi kam sambhav hi nahi aur karm kiye bina prem ka koi mol nahi" god teaches us how to love.

So here the love you mentioned in Sentence 1 and 3 is different from the love in Sentence 2.

It simply means "Love your Work" or say "Perform your prescribed duties.(Karma Yoga as described by Lord Krishna" - Right?!
To add some more...
The so called feeling which disturbs your work is not love but can be called as infatuation,so perform your duties in the prescribed manner to purify your mind.A Karma Yogi always does his work as worship.(and is always duty bound Eg: King Janak).Why Krishna gave King Janak as an example isn't he himself a Karma Yogi?Yes he was,but a real karma yogi never boasts his acheivements.Also here Krishna is viewed as Paramatma and he is no different from other beings,here King Janaka,hence both are same spiritually.As a person even Krishna performed his prescribed duties.

In Dwaparyuga Krishna could have stayed with Radha and may have lived a luxary life of a typical king, but the lord didnt do it. He left from vrindavan to hastinapur, so that evil on the earth could be destroyed. Sri Krishna cried for 8 days in grief of leaving Radha.

Who left whom? Supreme never leaves anyone he resides in all beings,but one should realise the presence of the Supreme(Paramatma) in self as well as all other beings,objects etc.Then there is no question of grief or sorrow.Great souls like Ram,Krishna and other saints left their physical forms yet today we don't grieve thinking they are gone coz we know that they are avatars of the supreme in various forms.The supreme of one's self is his/her own strength!
So even if Krishna left Vrindavan in physical form,he resides in Nanda,Yashoda,Gopas,Gopis,Radha etc.
There is no question of himself grieving coz it is Krishna in the form of Radha,it is krishna in the form of Radha's husband,it is krishna in the form of Nand/Yashodha,it is Krishna as Gopas and it is Krishna only as Gopa's wives or their cows.

Even mahadev who is the parmatma pameshvar lost his control when he heard of satis trajedy.

Here you referred MahaDev to Paramatma,yes ofcourse he is.But according to our scriptures supreme is the one who controls all actions and undergoes no changes.

Cosmic nature has 3 phases the creative,the preservative and the dissolving states ; governed respectively by Brahma,Vishnu and Shiva.
MahaDev manifests himself as a dissolver in the cosmic nature and his actions as Rudra/Bhairav/MahaKaal (after Sati left her body in a yogic way for the reasons we already know) represent his nature of destruction in the cosmic world due to an imbalance or unwanted or unpleasant situation created.(i.e loss of Shakti form as Sati).In terms it was MahaDev's cosmic response as a dissolver but not his grief!

Actually this is all what you said in the second half of your post.I just related these to the first few lines you've written.

One thing to add from my side is the love between humans and their relations is different from the love between Paramatma and Jeevatma!

The former belongs to the material world and the later is beyond this world and makes you realise yourself and the self within all beings is one and the same.
Radha Krishna love is divine and represents the later.
Here love refers to the jeevatma's quest for paramatma infact jeevatma is a part of paramatma but is caught in the strong waves of illusion or maya!
This is beyond all human relations and signifies the importance of surrendering to god i.e paramatma.

This is what Ishavashya Upanishad says...

Man must spend his life-time always in doing action, specially the karmas
enjoined in the Shastras, in a mood of believing resignation to His will. Inactivity, according to this Upanishad,
would be the canker of the soul. It is only when a man spends his life-time on doing actions in this manner, that
he can hope to attain the ideal of Naishkarmya. Finally, the text goes on to say that a man, who sees all beings in
the Self and sees the Self as existing in all beings; in fact, for whom all beings and everything that exists have becomes the Self - how can such a man suffer infatuation? What ground would such a man have for grief? Loathfulness, infatuation and grief verily proceed from our not being able to see the Atman in all things. But a
man, who realizes the oneness of all things, for whom everything has become the Self, must ipso facto, cease to
be affected by the common foibles of humanity.


Thank you Shailesh for making this wonderful post😊



One thing what your professor said is absolutely right👏and the same upanishad describes it as follows...

A man is ought to enjoy whatever God bestows on him in the firm belief, that as He pervades everything, whatever is bestowed on him by God must be good. It follows naturally, that the Upanishad should forbid us from coveting another man's property. In fact, we are fittingly taught here a lesson of contentment with one's own lot in the belief that whatever happens, it is divinely ordained and it is hence good for us.

I am extremely happy that you read the complete post with such a good observation😊. But i do not agree with you. The meaning is deeper than you expect. Which cant be explained in words, you must experience it by yourself :)

I'm happy with your reply esp. these words "you must experience it by yourself."


I do not agree with you.

But I explained here nothing.It is not a self made theory.All this was mentioned in our scriptures.

I just tried to relate the lines in the first half of your post with the ones in the second part by applying some core principles from holy texts for clarity and better understanding.
Even myself not satisfied completely, may be they weren't matched precisely.


The meaning is deeper than you expect.

Because words in the form of text and speech are 2nd hand / 3rd hand.

Which cant be explained in words, you must experience it by yourself.

Absolute!
It is difficult to go in depth with words,but they serve the purpose to some extent when in correct terms.Else why will Lord Krishna put effort in singing 'Gita'?

I'll be more happy if yourself or someone in this forum turn up and put them in more appropriate terms😳

@shaileshsay, you don't have to agree with the all the replys on a thread. Everyone expresses their own pov based on their learning, experience, feelings etc. Reading them can always be enlightening. We have members of various age group here & I enjoy reading all views.
@Sruja, I really liked the way you've described various pts, it has the conscious feeling in it.😊

I will explain your every query by my angle of view tomorrow upto 6 pm, please visit this post again by 6 pm tomorrow IST. But still I can say you must experience. I will also say few things on Gita point which you explained in this post.

I appreciate your interest, today I am short of time; do visit tomorrow. Your suggestions are always welcome.

I like friends who ask Questions not those who only say Thank You. Gita would have been not known to us in such a detail if Arjuna had not asked Q's to Krishna. Obivously I am not also 0.01% of Krishna. But will put my honest efforts to answer you, friend!!

Hey , lovely post 👍🏼

SRUJA

All 3 lines are same. Love is a energy, which inspires us to do our work. See if try to pass a exam. You will pass it. But if your some loved one says you Srujaji I want you to pass exam, then not only will you pass the exam but may be you will even achieve a distinction. But the Love Relationships are not so straight, it may be possible that you will not be able to concentration in your work due to that person. Gita says this disruption from work due to love is wrong. As true love is the inspiration & energy to do work, its never a obstacle. "prem aur kartavya ek dusre ko katate nahi bandhu, (laughs) ye to ek dusre ke shaktiya hai; prem bina koi kam sambhav hi nahi aur karm kiye bina prem ka koi mol nahi" so I guess 1,2&3 carry same meaning. & the meaning is not as simple as 'love your work' which is a very basic concept.

Karmyog and Love are interrelated. one compliments the other. But remember there cant be any work without heart involved in it. That's why even our Hindu Gods/Jesus in Christianity have their own loved ones. Karmyog doesn't mean work like a machine, it means work hard honestly with faith in me (Krishna) put you best efforts with a heart full and inspired by love (not disturbed in love).

Radha-Krishna-I ask you a simple question, if you have any loved person. would you like to leave her. Even when you know that she will always Stay in your Heart as Radha stays in heart of Krishna even then you would not let her go away from your eyes. & if she goes then you would cry. Crying is not a 'Weakness' it shows your Love. So did cried the great supreme lord Krishna. This is mentioned in scriptures. Even there comes a Sri Krishna serial of R.Sagar. You could see lords feelings when he left Vrindavan. He was sad, coz in Dwarka he had a big palace, but it was empty without Radharani and Gopis. Watch that episode on Youtube when Krishna left Vrindavan. Same thing applies for Shivji; Shiv and Krishna are different names of same soul.

And my Sir is always right, 😊. I have explained you just 1% of what I feel. because there exists no language by means of which I can say you abt the remaining 99. You were right that Krishna explained Geeta to Arjuna "in words" but Arjuna didnt understood all the meaning. Thats why to kill Bhishma Lord ran with his Soodarshan. Such things are not learnt by words but by combination of Karmyog and Meditation. thanks!!
