Live the Bhāgavatam · SB 1.15.27
Mukti· LiberationTake Shelter of the Lord’s Instructions
“Now I am attracted to those instructions imparted to me by the Personality of Godhead [Govinda] because they are impregnated with instructions for relieving the burning heart in all circumstances of time and space.”
What the purport teaches
- The Bhagavad-gītā was spoken for all times and all lands, not for Arjuna alone. Its teachings offer relief from mental anguish and a way out of difficult entanglements.
- The Lord is nondifferent from His authentic scriptural sound representation. Through the Bhagavad-gītā, one can receive His instructions even when He is not visible to material eyesight.
- The Supreme Lord is the independent controller, while the living being is His part and parcel. His instructions guide the living being beyond mistaken material identification toward devotional service and His eternal abode.
