“After attaining Me, the great sages who know Meas the ultimate goal of sacrifice and austerities, the Supreme lord of all planets and demigods, and the benefactor and well-wisher of all living entities, become free from all material miseries.”

Context of the Verse:

            This is the final verse of the 5th chapter named Karma Sannyasa Yoga – the Yoga of Renunciation of Action. Summary In this chapter, the necessity of elaborating on the processes of Renunciation and Action is explained as Arjuna is confused about which one is superior. Krishna further teaches, however, that both renunciation and self-less action can be routes to liberation, but that Karma Yoga (self-less action) is the superior path for most aspirants.

            This verse represents the concluding forceful statement of the chapter, and it uncovers the key to peace: knowing the divine nature of Krishna and surrendering to Him in knowledge and devotion.

Key Teachings in This Verse:

• Krishna is the Supreme Enjoyer: All kinds of austerities and sacrifices are performed with the purpose of pleasing God.
• Supreme Controller: He is the Lord of all the worlds and the creatures belonging to them, material and divine.
• All-forbearing Friend: God is not partial; He is a genuine friend of all creatures.
• Path to Peace: True peace (Santi) is not derived from mere material detachment, but from an enlightened understanding of God’s nature and relationship.

Relevance to Arjuna:

            Arjuna is horrified by the idea of killing his relations and teachers, and cut off from attachment to violence. This verse tells him that the most real peace and virtue does not come through sentimentality or forsaking of the world, but through the recognition of Krishna’s divine order. Since Krishna is the supreme enjoyer and the supreme well-wisher, to act in accordance with His will (i.e fighting as duty) is the way to peace and liberation.

Explanation:

            So when the anger is gone, fear gone from the body and materials desires also gone from the body. Then one can realize the supreme Lord.

            And what is that understanding?

            To date, Krish has said, give up your work product. Then is he, in the at the time here and yet to come, revealing if your senses were being put to work in offering me my service. So now, of course Krishna is saying know that I am the enjoyer of all sacrifices. Given by the Devatas or given to me directly in knowledge, but I am benefiting.

            I’m the creator of whole planet, world and totality so I’m well-wisher of everyone. When we are free from all these urges anger, fear and desires’ only then we can understand it. Unless, on the other hand, we are dominated by material desire and attachment, we cannot know anything about God.

            When a man gets this knowledge then he attains to Shanti. This is peace formula. So, we should know that Krishna is the supreme enjoyer. We should labour for his pleasure. What if he Were to labour for pleasure? He is a Knower of the Feast; there isn’t a Community without His present. He is controller of the entire cosmos, there isn’t a blade of grass moves without Himself.

            So, if I’ve made the owner of the universe happy with my service. Everything is under his control. Why anything in my life could ever be a “distraction.” But that is autocratic. He (Krishna) wants me to enforce So, Krishna says no. He’s our eternal well-wisher are parent or brothers are telling are our parents are telling child I’m telling in the similar fashion; Krishna is telling I’m not autocratic ruler. Parents are not autocratic. They’re best wishes of children. Similarly, Krishna is saying, I’m your best-well-wisher. Even wise men are bewildered by constantly acting according to the law of karma.”) Therefore, when a man knows that to be so – when he perceives the nature of the karma, so it is that even standing for a good of the Karma Yagya. And acting that man remains content with the loving-kindness of Krishna, for then his work comes to full fruition.

            So, how anyone  can achieve this by Sankhya?

            Attainable by means of Astang Yoga. Of course, one who thinks of Krishna at anywhere, when he thinks like that, when a Yogi comes, actually he doesn’t undergo these strain or Hatha-Yogic principles, but directly sitting in the Himalayan jungle and meditating on the heart, within the heart, not on the heart, common heart but your heart and realizing Krishna, but that can be very easily understood by direct Karma Yoga or Buddhi-Yoga by serving Krishna. Very nicely, That Krishna will describe in the next chapter.

            So, in this chapter we have seen perspicuously, Krishna has made it clear, knowledge is important and one’s acting in devotional service is also important. And if they’re one way only, in our Maya we think they are different. Yet the path of Karma Yoga is superior Attend it will not be long, not many birth away. If one has sincerity and one is born, one can get to God and this path is full as bliss, one is full of pleasure, controlling the senses can be very hard. How to control anger one may inquire how do you control something. For a Karma Yogi it is very simple because he is constantly finding pleasure in thinking of Krishna.

            He doesn’t have time to worry about anything else. They have given me praise, they have given me honour, they have given me scorn, they have given me dishonour. My feelings are hanging around, they are troubled. He is not at all disturbed; because he is completely busy, always constantly thinking of the lotus feet of Krishna, the holy name of Krishna. So, when one engages in service, then there is pleasure in the life.

            Now is not the time to get angry. Nobody can disturb him. He has no other desire as he is content through his service. A loving service to Krishna. So, this is simple and it is doable too. But when we are about to serve Krishna seeing will be automatically, gradually the senses will become silent.

            The self-control is easy. So, Krishna says this is more important. Then he describes the case of Yogi. Yogi is ever a balance of mind, until and unless there is a balance it is impossible to realize God. That is, one should work for the benefit of other living entities. The real benefit is how to raise them to the platform of spiritual platform immortality so that they haven’t got to come down again to this temporary dress, and to attain that supreme platform.

            This way of Astang Yoga Krishna has termed- brief been mentioned, of that whether or not it is to be practiced will be stated in the next chapter.
