Key Teachings in This Verse:

• Empathy (Atma-Aupamyena): The greatest Yogi knows our delight is his own as surely as our pain is a primary reflex.
• Equal Vision (Sama-Darsana): Neither hatred nor love come to a man of equanimity and sameness in everything; without an equal vision toward friend or foe, good or evil, this is called justice. Meeting of Friend, Enemy and Stranger on the Battlefield.
• Supreme Yoga: The pinnacle of yoga where you become capable of transcending your personal prejudice and extend love and compassion universally.
• Experience the Oneness: Real spiritualism is not negativity, but compassion to any living creature.
• Basis of Compassion and Nonviolence: This verse is typically the fundamental for global fraternity and sacrificial service.

• Arjuna has to go through a Dharma-Sankat moment on the battlefield: fighting his loved ones.
• Krishna counsels that the dearest Yogi is one who considers everyone as a part of Himself beyond bodily relations.
• This helps Arjuna to act with impartiality and tolerance and as duty calls, instead of responding from hatred or sorrow.
• It readies him to the cause without ill will, and in Dharma.

Explanation:

            One is able to realize that everyone is a spirit soul like me. This realization itself helps in recognizing the spiritual nature of all beings. We are seeing that he only avoids giving pain to others because he knows pain is bad. Basically, when someone cuts my hand, I experience the same pain sensation. Basically, why should I be so insensitive that just to satisfy my tongue, I harm other living beings the same way? Basically, people are getting the same high positions in society. As per the records, they are holding various degrees regarding their qualifications. These degrees are mentioned in their official name. These individuals are surely thought leaders, educators, or societal leaders. Moreover, they play crucial roles in shaping communities and guiding people. Further, basically, if people are harming other living beings, then the same basic common sense is missing, no? This does not require further education itself. We are seeing this is only basic sense. When somebody cuts my hand, I surely feel pain. Moreover, this physical injury directly causes immediate discomfort in my body. I cannot provide information about harming people. We are seeing that such requests are only meant for violence, which is not appropriate to discuss. My family members will feel bad if I am killed, and this sadness will further affect their daily lives. The loss itself will bring them great pain. Their family animals further possess emotions itself. These creatures also demonstrate feelings in their behaviour. Family members surely experience deep grief when they lose a loved one to death. Moreover, such loss creates lasting emotional pain that affects the entire family. Basically, what steps should I follow to achieve the same result? Basically, I am doing the same terrible things just to satisfy my taste buds. Basically, if this fundamental understanding is missing, then how can I expect to gain the same knowledge about life. Also, we cannot expect knowledge from people who harm other living beings and animals because they lack basic sanity itself. Such individuals need to develop further understanding of life.

            Regulation food very important. Moreover, proper food laws help prevent diseases and ensure quality standards in the market. Basically, the Yogi develops this understanding very easily because he knows what happiness and distress are the same. He actually works very hard to help other people with their problems. He definitely wants to reduce everyone’s suffering. As per your best efforts regarding keeping the body fit, it will not remain fit always. Diseases will further affect us, and we cannot keep ourselves free from illness itself. We are seeing that death will come only, and we will be taking another body in next life. Real welfare activities actually give spiritual knowledge to people. This definitely helps them understand life better. Moreover, therefore, after the Bhagavad Gita itself finishes, Krishna further explains. Krishna explains that Yogi is very dear to him, and we are seeing many other people are also dear to him, but the dearest person to God is only the one who shares this secret knowledge of Bhagavad Gita with others, as Krishna tells in the last chapter 18.

            If you want to become dear to God, this brings happiness in material and spiritual life itself. Further, such devotion leads to complete well-being. Basically, all spiritual knowledge is revealed to us and materially also we get the same nice care. We actually become dear to God through sincere devotion and righteous actions. Definitely following dharma and serving others with pure heart makes us beloved to the divine. Also, as per our understanding, we should spread this message to others regarding its importance. Basically, we are suffering because we don’t have this knowledge – the same lack of understanding is causing all our problems. This is surely the finest charitable work. Moreover, it represents the most beneficial form of social assistance.
