And the person of faith, free of malice, who merely listens to it — even he, liberated, will attain the auspicious worlds of those of meritorious deeds.
श्रद्धावाननसूयश्च शृणुयादपि यो नरः | सोऽपि मुक्तः शुभाँल्लोकान्प्राप्नुयात्पुण्यकर्मणाम् ||१८-७१||
The Bhagavad Gita, translated and commentated by S. Radhakrishnan, is one of the most scholarly and accessible English renderings of Hinduism's most beloved scripture — the dialogue between Arjuna and Lord Krishna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. Radhakrishnan, philosopher and statesman, brings both rigorous intellectual insight and genuine spiritual depth to his translation and notes. This edition is treasured for its ability to illuminate the Gita's universal spiritual teaching across cultural and philosophical boundaries.
You may believe in a God with form or a formless God, but your faith must be genuine and complete. It is through faith alone that one achieves everything.
A true believer cannot do anything wrong.
When love calls to you, follow it. Love's path can be difficult and demanding, but yield to it nonetheless. Love can hurt and shatter your dreams, yet believe in it anyway. Love will both uplift and challenge you, helping you grow while also pruning away what's unnecessary.
The inner work is first of all the work of God’s grace in the depth of the soul which subsequently distributes itself among the faculties of the soul, in that of Reason appearing as Belief, in that of Will as Love, and in that of Desire as Hope.
