Description

In this episode, The Bearded Mystic Podcast discusses the 3rd chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, specifically verses 10 - 13.  Krishna guides us on from the beginning of time, humans have been guided on how to live with nature, to respect nature and we must continuously give back to nature. We are to respect its laws and then we get aplenty back. We have to look after nature, give to nature as you take from nature and there can be universal harmony. This is only if we show our appreciate and show our gratitude. It is not enough to thank just God. We must thank everything that sustains us, even if in the end it is just a projection. If we care for each other, for every living being on the planet, then this Earth can be a paradise and a heaven for every one. We cannot leave any one person out here. Shri Krishna is warning us to not be like this. We must offer back to the universe, to the earth, to living beings with an open heart. Then the universe can give back. But if we just take and not give back, then what can the universe offer back to you. Eventually, it will exhaust itself and what greatness is in your accumulation. Shri Krishna says you are a thief.  Don't be selfish, be selfless in all that you do and attain. Give everything and do everything as an offering to others. You will get positive results. It is very simple. But if we have an iota, a speck of selfishness then nothing can stop the negative reactions from any action that we do.  Translation used: The Bhagavad Gita Comes Alive: A Radical Translation by Jeffrey Armstrong Available here on AmazonIf you would like to dwell deeper in the Bhagavad Gita, I recommend Swami Gambhirananda's translation with Adi Shankara ji's commentary: Available here on AmazonI hope you enjoyed listening to the 22nd episode of the Thoughts on The Bhagavad Gita and if you are interested in listening to more episodes like this on further chapters and verses, or on Non-Duality, or you want to learn more about the wisdom of the Mystics please follow/subscribe to this Podcast.Please rate and write a review for this Podcast, it will be greatly appreciated.New episodes will be available every Sunday.If you would like to attend a free weekly meditation with me, join my Whatsapp group:https://chat.whatsapp.com/DcdnuDMeRnW53E0seVp28bSubscribe to the free monthly The Bearded Mystic Newsletter: http://thebeardedmysticpodcast.substack.comYou can find links to Live Streams, Podcast, Videos etc: https://linktr.ee/thebeardedmysticpodcastYou can follow me and contact me on social media:TikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdk3HPJh/Discord: https://discord.com/invite/ZphafV5VddInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebeardedmysticpodcast/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheBeardedMysticPodcast/Twitter: https://twitter.com/bearded_mysticFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Bearded-Mystic-PodcastSupport the show
