•Oh Bharata! Whenever there is a decline of righteousness (and)
increase of unrighteousness, then indeed, I create Myself.
Purpose Of Avathāra
•The Lord who is the creator and the protector of the world incarnates whenever it is needed to re-establish order in the world and rejuvenate it.
•so is with the knowledge of purpose Lord enters, unlike jiva who comes due to ignorance and karma
•The universe is a cosmic body- Maintained by DHARMA
•When Harmony is disturbed too much – Lord Incarnates to maintain it
•Paritrāṇāya sādhūnāṃ vināśāya ca duṣkṛtām| •Dharmasaṃsthāpanārthāya sambhavāmi yugē yugē ||4.8||
•For the protection of the righteous, for the destruction of the unrighteous, and for the establishment of righteousness, I am born in every age- Again and Again.
•Dharma is protected by protecting the people who follow dharma
•Punishing Adharmic people
•Rāma taught by living dharma, and Krishna taught by teaching Dharma,
•Krishna Lives amongst Us in the form of Gita
•Leaders Like Mahatma Gandhi have found solace and solution in Gita during crises.
• We also should learn, Practise, and teach Gita so that we move from Adharma to Dharma, Jeeva to Jeevan Muktha.
•As long as We are learning, Following and teaching Gita- Avatar is continuing time after time- sambavami Yuge Yuge Thank you

Jnana Karma Sanyasa
Contributed By Veeksha
Brahmārpaṇaṁ brahma havir brahmāgnau brahmaṇā hutam
brahmaiva tena gantavyaṁ brahmakarmasamādhinā 4.24
Oh! Arjuna, jñānāgniḥ the fire of Knowledge, kurute
reduces, sarvakarmāṇi bhasmasāt karmas to ashes,
tathā just as, yathā samiddhaḥ agniḥ well kindled fire,
kurute reduces edhāṃśi bhasmasāt fuel to ashes.
Oh Arjuna! The fire of knowledge reduces all Karmas to ashes just as
a well-kindled fire reduces the fuel to ashes.
Level 1: I am the consciousness or brahma. Consciousness is separate from body-mind complex. Consciousness is Sathya and everything else around you is mithya.
Level 2: I the consciousness principle is the same in all the body-mind complex. Therefore, there is only one consciousness enclosed in all bodies. In the eye of consciousness we all one or atma ekatvam.
Level 3: The final level of upanishadic teaching is ‘I’ which is the consciousness behind all bodies and mind is alone the ultimate truth and the essence of creation.
Brahman is the oblation, Brahman is the offering,
the fire is brahman, the one who offers the oblation is also brahman.
One whose actions happen while absorbed in Brahman, he alone attains Brahman
