Today I am going to write about The Geeta for the First time. It is Such a Huge and Tough Topic that I am a bit nervous :)… But on the other hand really Happy also that at last I attempted this tough subject :)… For a long time I have been planning to write my experiences/views about various Slokas of the Geeta, but was really scrared to start it. As I know that my understanding is still in a very very naïve stage… But Geeta has so many beautiful messages that one part of me always felt the need to share all those messages with you all. The whole text is available online and any person can read the original text with explanation from any website.
Here I will try to write about my favourite slokas one by one. I don’t have that much Knowledge to analyse the slokas, so will just include the meaning of the verses and also a short paragraph on my realizations about that particular verse.
Actually Geeta needs to be studied from a very learned person who can explain the hidden meaning of the verses and who can also relate the verses of one chapter with the verses of other chapters, as Geeta is complete as a Whole. The knowledge is divided into various chapters but they lead to the Same Aim.
I know I still do not have that much grasp over the subject, but as reading of Geeta with sincerity can mould the life/vision of a person, so decided to at least bring those slokas into discussion which have always Surprised me, and have radically Changed my thinking process. I think, if we reflect on the slokas, our Intellect will guide us to go deep into their meaning.
I hope readers will forgive me for my mistakes, as I am still in the learning process.
Today is the first of this series, I am taking up three slokas from Chapter 10 :-
ahamātmā gudākeśa sarvabhūtāśayasthitah
ahamādiśca madhyam ca bhūtānāmanta eva ca.(20)
Meaning- "I am, O Gudakesh, the Self that dwells within all beings, as also their primeval beginning, middle, and end.
yaccāpi sarvabhūtānām bījam tadahamarjuna
na tadasti vinā yatsyānmayā bhūtam carācaram.(39)
Meaning- "And, O Arjun, I am also the seed from which all beings have sprung up, because there is nothing animate or inanimate which is without my maya."
yadyadvibhūtimatsattvam śrīmadūrjitameva vā
tattadevāvagaccha tvam mama tejomśasambhavam.(41)
Meaning- "Know that whatever is possessed of glory, beauty, and strength has arisen from my own splendour.’’

How Wonderful are the verses! When I read it, I always feel that if we just consider this message for only a few seconds, we will feel His presence around us always! I know this is tough, but it is True... He is the beginning, middle and end, He is the Glory as well as the Essence of the Creation! Each time I get moved by reading these verses, reading them make me feel Him all around me.
With Best Wishes,
Jai Shri Krishna.
