It teaches us the science of the soul, who we are, why we are suffering,what the nature of this world is, our relation with the supreme lord, etc. In this blog, we will provide you information about timeless truths from the Bhagavad-Gītā.

Timeless Truths from The  Bhagavad-Gītā 

Everyone of us may have experienced ups and downs in our lives. We become agitated, unable to handle the situation and act favourably, or at some point we feel to be lost alone without any hope, so, without the sun of knowledge, we can’t remove the darkness of ignorance, whether at a personal level, societal level,or even for the whole world. We are fearful because of ignorance, but the light of knowledge from the Bhagavad Gita will save us from the greatest danger of life. Its teaching is timeless, meaning it is applicable for everyone of us, whether in the age of satyug or kaliyuga, for our grand ancestors, or for our coming generation. Its teaching is very practical to understand; we can easily relate to our life situations. 

In BG 8.15, Lord Krishna says this world is “Dukhalayam ashashvatam.” Nothing is permanent in this world; our material bodies will perish at any point of time. This world is full of miseries. And there is not a single person who can say I am always happy. Lord Krishna says in BG 2.13 : 

“ As the embodied soul continuously passes in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change. The one who knows this will never lament if someone passes away because he knows the truth.” 

 These were all just a glimpse of the Bhagavad Gita and how it is so practical to understand and also to apply in our lives. By applying the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita in our lives, we will be able to handle tough situations of our lives with ease, and we can reach the perfection of life blissfully.
