In this episode, The Bearded Mystic Podcast discusses the 6th chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, specifically verses  24 - 28. Sri Krishna wants us to control the senses and abandon the desires that keep us rooted in the world alone. Sri Krishna wants us to always choose the truth of formless awareness over anything else. Sri Krishna puts forward how the atma, this formless awareness stabilizes this restless mind. Sri Krishna how the yogi calms down the mind and no longer goes according to their desires and attains ultimate bliss. Sri Krishna explains this ceaseless joy is gained through direct contact with Formless Awareness.Translation used: The Bhagavad Gita Comes Alive: A Radical Translation by Jeffrey ArmstrongIf you enjoyed listening to the 49th episode of the Thoughts on The Bhagavad Gita and want to listen to more episodes like this on the Bhagavad Gita, or on Non-Duality, or the wisdom of the Mystics please follow/subscribe to this Podcast.
