The Bhagavad Gita

The Bhagavad Gita is an early poem that recounts the conversation between Arjuna the warrior and his charioteer Shri Krishna, a manifestation of God. In the moments before a great battle, Shri Krishna sets out the important lessons Arjuna must learn to understand his own role in the war he is about to fight. Shri Krishna reveals to Arjuna His true cosmic form and counsels the warrior to act according to his sacred obligations. Shri Mataji’s Sahaja Yoga meditation teaches us that Shri Krishna resides on the Vishuddhi chakra of our subtle system, in the throat area. This centre has the qualities of detachment, collectivity, diplomacy and the witness state.

“The Bhagavad Gita says that you become the witness (Sakshi Swarup) of the play of the Divine.” – Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
