Dear Health-Conscious Dessert Lover,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enjoying a delicious dessert at the end of a great meal is one of life’s sweetest pleasures.&lt;br /&gt;
Moist vanilla cupcakes with chocolate buttercream… warm pumpkin pie… crème brulée… carrot cake with cream cheese frosting… fresh brownies…&lt;br /&gt;
Or just imagine the smell of freshly-baked chocolate chip cookies wafting from your kitchen…&lt;br /&gt;
Just thinking about these decadent creations makes your mouth water and few of us have the willpower to resist.&lt;br /&gt;
But we often feel guilty for indulging in sweet treats. After all, most desserts are filled with sugar, refined carbohydrates and unhealthy fats, and they pack more calories than the meal itself!&lt;br /&gt;
Too many “sweet treats” like this will not only make you fat… it could ruin your health!&lt;br /&gt;
But what if you could…&lt;br /&gt;
Relax with a piece of New York cheesecake topped with raspberry sauce&lt;br /&gt;
Satisfy your cravings with a warm slice of cinnamon apple crisp, or&lt;br /&gt;
Enjoy chocolate rum balls and rich chocolate brownies…&lt;br /&gt;
Without a care as to how it might affect your waistline or your health?&lt;br /&gt;
And what if these desserts were not only irresistibly delicious, but good for you too?&lt;br /&gt;
If you keep an eye on your health, but you still love to indulge in decadent desserts, you’ll be glad to know that… You have your cake and be well too!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You Don’t Have to Sacrifice Your Health&lt;br /&gt;
To Enjoy Dessert (As Often as You Like!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the longest time, there have been very few truly healthy dessert options. In fact, most so-called “healthy” desserts, which you might find in the store, are anything but.&lt;br /&gt;
Those labeled “low fat” are packed with sugar. And while the “low carb” options might have less sugar, they use chemical-laden, artificial sweeteners which taste awful… and are even WORSE for your health!&lt;br /&gt;
And for those of us who enjoy baking at home, the options were just as limited. There were simply no recipes or guidebooks for creating divinely delicious desserts with all-natural, low glycemic ingredients.&lt;br /&gt;
But those days are gone…&lt;br /&gt;
You no longer have to choose between your health and the pleasure of decadent sweets!&lt;br /&gt;
It’s Time to Put Dessert Back on the Menu – Guilt Free!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks to the latest in nutritional science, it can be downright easy to create desserts that are so sinfully moist, sweet and delicious… you’ll swear they’re bad for you.&lt;br /&gt;
But you can feel good about making and enjoying these sweet treats. Because not only do they come without the sugar, carbs and consequences you wish to avoid… but they have health benefits to boot!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s not all…&lt;br /&gt;
You can also enjoy the toasty, fluffy and flaky goodness of breads… crackers… pizza crust… biscuits… bagels and more… without the carbs and health-harming effects of grains!&lt;br /&gt;
In just a moment, I’ll show you just how easy (and delicious!) it can be.&lt;br /&gt;
But first…&lt;br /&gt;
Please Allow Me to Introduce Myself…&lt;br /&gt;

But first…&lt;br /&gt;
Please Allow Me to Introduce Myself…&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My name is Kelley Herring.&lt;br /&gt;
I’m the Founder &amp; CEO of Healing Gourmet, the world’s leading provider of organic, sustainable recipes and meal plans for health and weight loss.&lt;br /&gt;
I am also the Editor-in-Chief of a four-book series published by McGraw-Hill including: Eat to Fight Cancer, Eat to Beat Diabetes, Eat to Lower Cholesterol and Eat to Boost Fertility.&lt;br /&gt;
For more than 10 years, Healing Gourmet has provided life-saving education to our readers about the benefits of a natural diet… and the proven power of foods and nutrients to promote health and protect against disease.&lt;br /&gt;
We’ve helped thousands of people to dramatically improve their health and reach their optimal weight by simply following an all-natural, low-glycemic diet.&lt;br /&gt;
And we have received hundreds of positive testimonials like this one from Deborah in Scottsdale, AZ who says:&lt;br /&gt;
“I am so grateful for the information and healthy recipes provided by Healing Gourmet. You have been very helpful for me in making healthy choices. My blood pressure is now under control, my joints don’t ache anymore, I have more energy, and I can tolerate hot weather with less discomfort. Best of all, I have lost about 50 pounds!”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, until just a few years ago, there were very few “good-for-you” desserts that we could recommend to someone who is conscious of their body and their health.&lt;br /&gt;
So Healing Gourmet set out on a mission…&lt;br /&gt;
Our goal was to create divinely delicious dessert recipes, made with natural ingredients that you could enjoy without a moment’s guilt.&lt;br /&gt;
These desserts had to be truly healthy.&lt;br /&gt;
And we refused to settle for anything less than extraordinary taste.&lt;br /&gt;
I’m thrilled to announce that we succeeded on both counts!&lt;br /&gt;
So, how did we do it?&lt;br /&gt;
Sweet Science: Using “Metabolic Power Ingredients”&lt;br /&gt;
To Create the World’s Healthiest Desserts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We began our mission by collecting dozens of the most decadent dessert recipes we could find, including all the favorites… from brownies to pumpkin pie… carrot cake, custards and soufflés… ice cream… cookies, macaroons and more!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To Create the World’s Healthiest Desserts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We began our mission by collecting dozens of the most decadent dessert recipes we could find, including all the favorites… from brownies to pumpkin pie… carrot cake, custards and soufflés… ice cream… cookies, macaroons and more!&lt;br /&gt;
The first step was to remove every ingredient from these recipes that was unnatural or refined, as well as anything that would spike your blood sugar or cause your body to store fat.&lt;br /&gt;
Then we substituted these items with proteins, healthy fats and fiber.&lt;br /&gt;
These “metabolic power ingredients” help to keep your blood sugar stable. They promote the feeling of fullness. And they even stoke your body’s fat-burning furnace!&lt;br /&gt;
And for the last several years, we have been firing up the ovens in our test kitchen, testing dozens of these all-natural ingredients in over 50 different dessert recipes.&lt;br /&gt;
We constantly tweaked the ingredients and proportions until we had replaced the sugar and flour in these classic desserts. We gave each one a total health makeover, while keeping all the moisture, taste and decadent sweetness!&lt;br /&gt;
And now Healing Gourmet has taken everything we’ve learned and put it together in one simple guide. Please allow me to introduce…&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

                      Guilt-Free Desserts:&lt;br /&gt;

                 Gluten Free &amp; Low-Glycemic Desserts!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just imagine biting into a luxuriously rich, sweet chocolate cake that (serving for serving) provides more fiber than whole grain cereal, more protein than chicken, less sugar than an apple and fewer calories than a serving of yogurt.&lt;br /&gt;
Or how would you like to promote lean, sexy muscle growth… as you snack on a Lemon-Ricotta Soufflé (with 10 grams protein and only 1 gram of sugar!)&lt;br /&gt;
Well, now you can…&lt;br /&gt;
Inside Guilt-Free Desserts, you will find 50 of the most sumptuous dessert recipes that won’t pack on the pounds or spike your blood sugar!&lt;br /&gt;
You’ll learn how to make everything from spicy Gingerbread Cookies to moist Carrot Cake Cupcakes… classic Chocolate Soufflé… Cherry Almond Tarts… and even Crème Brûlée.&lt;br /&gt;
You’ll also find all the traditional favorites like Pumpkin Pie with Pecan Crust, Fall-Spiced Custard, Apple Streusel and Chocolate Chip Cookies.&lt;br /&gt;
And each one is so perfectly delectable that…&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Your Friends &amp; Family Will be Amazed when They Learn&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.guiltfreedesserts.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/DESSERT_COLLAGE-2__new.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="435" width="700" src="http://www.guiltfreedesserts.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/DESSERT_COLLAGE-2__new.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And of course, each recipe also comes with time-saving tips, nutritional information and your estimated preparation time.&lt;br /&gt;
You will be delighted by just how delicious and healthy these recipes can be and how easy they are to make, but…&lt;br /&gt;
Guilt-Free Desserts is a Lot More than a Recipe Book!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not only will you have 50 new dessert recipes, you’ll also have all the information you need to makeover your favorite family desserts… with just a few simple substitutions.&lt;br /&gt;
Guilt-Free Desserts includes everything you need to know about the latest baking ingredients and how to use these inexpensive and readily-available products in your own kitchen.&lt;br /&gt;
And the substitutes we’re talking about are not the fake, rearranged molecules of the Atkins era… On the contrary!&lt;br /&gt;
These “functional ingredients” come straight from Mother Nature’s Pantry and they provide numerous health benefits beyond basic nutrition.&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing you’ll learn is how to use the latest natural sweeteners to achieve the “sugary” results you desire…with none of the guilt!&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.guiltfreedesserts.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/fat-burning-poundcake1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="350" width="288" src="http://www.guiltfreedesserts.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/fat-burning-poundcake1.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
                           Sweet Synergy:&lt;br /&gt;
                     The Perfect Combination of Natural Sweeteners!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sugar doesn’t just add sweetness. It can also add bulk and moisture. It helps caramelize desserts. And it can also provide a crisp texture or crunch factor.&lt;br /&gt;
Until recently, replacing these qualities in your dessert recipes has been all but impossible.&lt;br /&gt;
But we’ve found the perfect formula for sweet synergy – a combination of natural ingredients that’s almost a perfect match for the taste and sweetness of sugar, without the calories or the impact on insulin.&lt;br /&gt;
But sugar is not the only ingredient that can impact your blood sugar…&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.guiltfreedesserts.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/healthy-sweeteners.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" width="290" src="http://www.guiltfreedesserts.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/healthy-sweeteners.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
                         Healthy Flours:&lt;br /&gt;
                Better for Blood Sugar &amp; Gluten Free Too!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many bakers choose “whole grains” over refined white flours, but all grain-based flours score high on the glycemic index. So, if you want to avoid that “muffin top” then stay away from grains!&lt;br /&gt;
And grains also contain gluten – an allergenic protein that causes health issues for many people.&lt;br /&gt;
That’s why Guilt-Free Desserts features 11 different gluten-free, low-glycemic flours that lend buttery richness and feel-good flavor to everything from fluffy pancakes to crispy cookies… with none of the allergens or fat-storing carbs.&lt;br /&gt;
And once we’ve covered the covered the sweetness and structure aspects of baking… it’s time to tackle fats.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.guiltfreedesserts.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/coconut-flour-card.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" width="285" src="http://www.guiltfreedesserts.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/coconut-flour-card.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
            Healthy Fats for Baking: Get Slim By Eating Fat!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fats provide moisture and texture to baked goods. They give rich mouth feel to soufflés, silky finesse to mousse and golden, flaky goodness to pie crust.&lt;br /&gt;
But what they do in your body is even more important than what they do in the kitchen.&lt;br /&gt;
While some fats clearly promote weight gain and increase your risk for disease… other fats actually promote fat burning and are vital to your wellness.&lt;br /&gt;
That’s why Guilt-Free Desserts will show you which fats to avoid and how to use healthy fats to create moist treats that melt in your mouth!&lt;br /&gt;
And that’s just the beginning…&lt;br /&gt;

We also started another account which is a live real money that was verified by the Midwest Accounting LLC:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our Forex robot can be traded with ANY account size....BIG or SMALL!&lt;br /&gt;
We wanted to show everyone that unlike many scam-only-working-on-paper Forex robots out there, FAP Turbo is REAL&lt;br /&gt;
Now...lets get to the most important part of all of this...to the reason why FAP Turbo is #1 and will be undefeated for a VERY long time.&lt;br /&gt;
I want your full attention here...I mean it, this is KEY:&lt;br /&gt;
Understanding the following will show you why FAP Turbo is the real deal...why it’s a golden opportunity for the smart ones...&lt;br /&gt;
Do you remember I told you at the beginning of the letter that back-test results are worthless? Well, THEY ARE!&lt;br /&gt;
So, why am I about to to show you back-test results of FAP Turbo?&lt;br /&gt;
Well...and this is the best lesson you will ever learn in Forex robot trading:&lt;br /&gt;
Back-test Results Are Worthless UNLESS You Can Validate Them With Live Forward Trading!&lt;br /&gt;
What does this mean?&lt;br /&gt;
Well, simple and to the point: if you back-test a robot and it shows 100% “demo” profit in one month, it should PRODUCE around 80-100% profit in LIVE trading.&lt;br /&gt;
Thats it...mo more and no less!&lt;br /&gt;
So, how did FAP Turbo perform in back-testing? Well...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For those that are a bit “technical” let's sum up the above:&lt;br /&gt;
11 Years Back-test&lt;br /&gt;
14,088 Total Trades&lt;br /&gt;
99.66% Winners&lt;br /&gt;
10,607% NET Profit&lt;br /&gt;
0.32% Drawdown!&lt;br /&gt;
Incredible results right? Yes, VERY impressive...&lt;br /&gt;
But whats MORE impressive is that the LIVE trading results are even BETTER than the back-test results!&lt;br /&gt;
In the back-test the robot averaged about 48% profit per month (10,607% divided by 132 months which is 11 years)...&lt;br /&gt;
In live trading, as you have already seen proof of, FAP Turbo has actually made at least DOUBLE that...&lt;br /&gt;
The loop is closed...&lt;br /&gt;
The ONLY robot you will find that actually nails trade after trade in live trading TWICE as profitably as in the 11 years of back-testing!&lt;br /&gt;
It simple cant get better than this!&lt;br /&gt;

“Who Am I?”&lt;br /&gt;
You probably expected from me to introduce myself much earlier in the letter right? Well, thats what most “Forex Gurus” do...&lt;br /&gt;
But...for me it was more important to first show you proof of my bold claims BEFORE I introduce myself...&lt;br /&gt;
At the end of the day, who you are and what you are is based on&lt;br /&gt;
what you can prove...talk is cheap these days!&lt;br /&gt;
So...lets make it formal...&lt;br /&gt;
My name is Steve Carletti and I am a professional I.T. programmer and the head developer of the most accurate and profitable Forex robot in todays market - FAP Turbo.&lt;br /&gt;
I suppose like many people out there, my dream as a young kid was always to make it big.&lt;br /&gt;
Well, I suppose most of us had that dream when we were kids right?&lt;br /&gt;
The questions is how many of us really fulfilled that dream! In other words, how many people had the courage and dedication to go after what they wanted...&lt;br /&gt;
I am sorry for being so bold, but most people are pathetic. Why?&lt;br /&gt;
Because They Live In An “IF” World...&lt;br /&gt;
”Only If I would have done that”... ”Only If I took that opportunity”... ”Only If I had the courage”... ”Only if I took the time”... If If, If , If , If ,If...&lt;br /&gt;
Well, I was never an “IF” person and that is why I made it big...&lt;br /&gt;
That is why I am rich today and most people reading this letter are not. Again, my apologize for being so straight forward but that is the reality of things and as you have already seen my world is a reality based world.&lt;br /&gt;
I can still remember in high school....while everyone else was busy playing and enjoying youth I was trying to figure out a way to make money.&lt;br /&gt;
I tried every opportunity out there....I actually joined at least 7 MLM programs! Of course they didn't work...but you know what?&lt;br /&gt;
I Actually Attribute My Success In Life To Them And Any other Opportunity I Tried...&lt;br /&gt;
Strange right?&lt;br /&gt;
Well, not really! Trying things that didn't work actually pushed me more and more to figure out what does work...it gave me more enthusiasm and thrust to figure out a way to make BIG money.&lt;br /&gt;
But I learned another lesson as well....a very important one, and I want you to listen very closely here:&lt;br /&gt;
BIG Money Is Made NOT By Working Hard But By “Working” SMART!&lt;br /&gt;
I know...yes...this contradicts everything most people have been trained to think: “work hard and you will reach your goals in life”.&lt;br /&gt;
Well...let me ask you this – how many people do you know that work all month long 12-14 hour days and barely bring home a $3,000 paycheck?&lt;br /&gt;
I bet a lot!&lt;br /&gt;
Now, how many people do you know that bring:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
$2815 In 21 Days...&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
$1697 In 18 Days...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
$21,448 In 92 Days...&lt;br /&gt;
without working at all...100% on autopilot...with absolutely NO human intervention?&lt;br /&gt;
I bet none!&lt;br /&gt;
Well, thats not accurate....you know me now :-)&lt;br /&gt;
So, bottom line...there is nothing wrong with working hard. My father actually worked more than 15 hours a day for over 30 years and I respect that. He did everything he could do to support the family.&lt;br /&gt;
But the HUGE difference between my father and YOU and ME is that he didn't have another option...&lt;br /&gt;
if he had a way to bring those paychecks home without working so hard I can GUARANTEE he would have left his day job and enjoyed life as it should be enjoyed!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes...that was the response of EVERYONE around me after they saw the life I was leading...the life FAP Turbo gave me!&lt;br /&gt;
Who would have thought 10 years ago that one day this will be my life and of many others trading the FAP Turbo robot!&lt;br /&gt;
Today, I live the dream most people have...rake in tens of thousands of dollars while resting, playing, vacationing, watching T.V.&lt;br /&gt;
It's amazing how times change... and its amazing how one great discovery can change a whole life!&lt;br /&gt;
But people always wanted to know more....they wanted to know why it is possible to make so much money without doing anything trading Forex...&lt;br /&gt;
Well, can't blame them! Forex is not something you hear often....it actually sounds a bit scary when you hear the term for the first time!&lt;br /&gt;
The advantages of trading Forex are obvious:&lt;br /&gt;
Low Startup – You can start with as LOW as $50!&lt;br /&gt;
Huge Market - $3 TRILLION traded around the world every day (Actually, the Forex market is bigger than ALL the world stock, bonds, and futures markets combined!)&lt;br /&gt;
24/5 – Non stop action, 24 hours a day 5 days per week (Monday through Friday)&lt;br /&gt;
Volatile – The most volatile market in the world...what does that mean? HUGE opportunity every moment of the day&lt;br /&gt;
Low Cost – While with stock trading, futures and options you pay spread plus commission, with Forex your only “cost of trade” is spread (that can add up to ALOT!)&lt;br /&gt;
No Cornering – Unlike any other markets, it is IMPOSSIBLE to corner the Forex market....and, no matter how many people trade with the same robot its efficiency and profitability will remain intact (HUGE plus)!&lt;br /&gt;
Up &amp; Down – Profit from rising and falling prices...you don't care which way the market goes. Ohhh...and, unlike with the US stock market, you don't have to wait for an up-tick for shorting!&lt;br /&gt;
No Size Limit – Trade as BIG or as SMALL as you want! This is something that ONLY the Forex market allows you.&lt;br /&gt;
You have to be blind not to see the incredible potential...and truth be told, my real success as a Forex trader and robot designer only came after I completely understood the significance of these elements...&lt;br /&gt;
“I Knew That There Has To Be A Way To Cash In On This Incredible Opportunity – And BIG Time!”&lt;br /&gt;
I also knew that I would not be able to do it alone. At the end of the day, the idea of producing the best Forex robot in existence is quite a big challenge!&lt;br /&gt;
You always have to know your strengths...my strengths are organization, information technology, persistence, drive and ambition.&lt;br /&gt;
But...I was never good with complex numbers and with advanced programming!&lt;br /&gt;
What do you do when you have a great idea but not all the qualifications to make it a reality?&lt;br /&gt;
You work with THE BEST OF THE BEST in those specific fields you are not the best!&lt;br /&gt;
Mike and Ulrich are that “best of the best”!&lt;br /&gt;
I actually met both Mike and Ulrich while in university. Both were those typical “geeks” you would find studying and coming up with new theories while most other people were partying!&lt;br /&gt;
We hit it off quite well and became very good friends ever since (although, I must admit they do bore me at times with their complex theories and ideas!).&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, Mike being a true genius with complex numbers and Ulrich being a small Einstein with open source programing I immediately saw the potential – they were exactly what I needed to take my idea from only and idea to a profitable cash pulling reality!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both LOVED the idea of producing a “never seen before” Forex robot. I suppose it fits our personality – do something traders, banks, fund managers etc. label as “impossible”!&lt;br /&gt;
And So The Biggest Forex Project Of This Century Started – The Wheels Were In Motion – “FAP Turbo” Was About To Be Born...&lt;br /&gt;
We got a hold of every single Forex robot in the market...every single Forex strategy and method available... every idea or piece of idea we could find...we read over 20 “strategy design” books between the 3 of us and subscribed to every single Forex publication/service available.&lt;br /&gt;
Thats how serious we took project “FAP Turbo”...&lt;br /&gt;
You guessed right....99% of what we saw, tested and studied was CRAP! Well, obviously...if it wasn't, I suppose others would have already come up with a super-Forex robot right?&lt;br /&gt;
But...and this is a lesson I learned quite well from this project...even in “crap” information there is value...you can actually understand why it is crap and come up with ideas to improve it!&lt;br /&gt;
But you know what was the most frustrating part?&lt;br /&gt;
Even The “Good” Forex Robots We Tested Worked Well ONLY In Backtests! Once We Live Traded Them We Actually Lost Our Pants...&lt;br /&gt;
Yes...we lost a lot of money in the process of testing...but that was the only way to actually know what works and what doesn't.&lt;br /&gt;
It was the only way to understand why so many Forex robots were failing to deliver the goods in real LIVE trading.&lt;br /&gt;
Do you know that stage where you are ready to give up? Where everything seems a waste of time...nothing seems to work....you can't really see the “light at the end of the tunnel”?&lt;br /&gt;
Well...I must admit...we were quite close to it! But our work paid off once we stumbled into Marcus B Leary and his Forex AutoPilot Robot (forexautopilot.com)...&lt;br /&gt;
I LOVE that feeling of relief....that deep breath that comes with “FINALLY!”....finally something that seems to work and make sense!&lt;br /&gt;
Forexautopilot is an EA that is consistently being updated by it's creator Marcus B. Learary who himself is the pioneer of expert advisor programming.&lt;br /&gt;
We were quite impressed by his work as this robot seriously was able to rake in very nice gains - consistently.&lt;br /&gt;
However...&lt;br /&gt;
The trading risk is to big, especially for larger sums. The all or nothing formula is nothing for weak stomachs.&lt;br /&gt;
I called up their support and introduced myself and what I was doing with Mike and Ulrich...after a little back and forth with the support staff I was able to FINALLY speak with the man himself.&lt;br /&gt;
We hit is off quite well! I wouldn't say Marcus is the average “Geek” profile...but you can definitely confuse him with that!&lt;br /&gt;
He is the type of person that will talk with inspiration and A LOT of knowledge. If you talk to Marcus, you have to know what you are talking about! If not, he will get quite bored quite &lt;br /&gt;
soon...&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, we ended up talking for over 3 weeks...exchanging ideas...building a solid relationship.&lt;br /&gt;
All through our conversations I kept insisting that Mike, Ulrich and Me can actually take his Forex robot and make it 10 times better (a bit bold, I know!).&lt;br /&gt;
It is safe to say that if it was another person I was talking to I would have been blown off...but not with Marcus!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That my friend... was Marcus's reply to my constant bragging that we can improve his Forex robot beyond belief... that we can “leave him in the dust” so to speak!&lt;br /&gt;
Of course, there were some conditions:&lt;br /&gt;
“Sign a non-disclosure agreement...have a look at the hidden source code of Forexautopilot and see if you can improve it. Should you be able to do better, you can have the new version for yourself....do with it what ever you want!”&lt;br /&gt;
I am sure that when Marcus said the above he was in complete disbelief that we can actually leave his Robot in the dust...&lt;br /&gt;
Well...surprise surprise!&lt;br /&gt;
9 weeks later....countless hours of absolutely no sleep...all our knowledge...all our combined programing, mathematics and analysis abilities...living, eating, and breathing Forex... FAP Turbo was FINALLY born!&lt;br /&gt;
We fired FAP Turbo for a 2 year back-test....just to test the waters.&lt;br /&gt;
Ulrich almost fell off the chair....and I, someone that is quite hard to surprise, was in complete disbelief... I'm NOT kidding! It as one of the greatest moments in my life (and I am sure in Mike's and Ulrich's lifes to).&lt;br /&gt;
But....no matter what so called “traders” tell you, a 2 year back-test is not enough...not nearly.&lt;br /&gt;
So, we went for the whole 9 yards! We fired up FAP Turbo for a 10 year back-test...&lt;br /&gt;
The results?&lt;br /&gt;
Well...you have already seen them earlier but let's just recap:&lt;br /&gt;
14,088 Total Trades&lt;br /&gt;
99.66% Winners&lt;br /&gt;
10,607% NET Profit&lt;br /&gt;
0.32% Drawdown!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(click here to jump to the actual MetaTrader backtest results if you haven't seen them yet)&lt;br /&gt;
Impressive...never achieved before and I am serious. We have backtested countless Forex robots...we have NEVER seen results coming even close to these ones.&lt;br /&gt;
But now the REAL challenge was about to take place....back-testing was OBVIOUSLY not enough. Yes, unbelievable results, but....as we all know...it's only backtested results.&lt;br /&gt;
Backtests are only the foundation of a Forex robot...the beginning.&lt;br /&gt;
Just think of it for a moment...why do you think so many people out there sell Forex robots based ONLY on backtests?...&lt;br /&gt;
Because they DON'T work in live trading!&lt;br /&gt;
Understand that and you will be light years ahead of everyone, I absolutely guarantee that.&lt;br /&gt;
It Was Now Time To Fire Up “FAP Turbo” With A Live Account...Time To Put Our Money Where Our Mouth Was...&lt;br /&gt;
It was time to prove to Marcus, every other Forex trader out there and to the whole world that we finally did, it - we cracked the Code...that we have done what no person thought possible:&lt;br /&gt;
A Forex Robot that in LIVE trading doubles ANY account like clockworks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To the tune of:&lt;br /&gt;
$500 Turning Into $1,100- In 2 Short Months&lt;br /&gt;
$2,500 Turning Into $8,700 - In 45 Days&lt;br /&gt;
$5,100 Turning Into $25,100 - In 30 Days&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
(If you haven't seen the LIVE statements of these accounts please scroll up the page)&lt;br /&gt;
The job was done...months and months of hard work were finally over...and it paid BIG time!&lt;br /&gt;
We could now finally say...but more importantly - PROVE:&lt;br /&gt;
“FAP Turbo NOT Only Backtests To The Tune Of 10,607% Profit In 11 Years (Or 48% Per Month)...It Actually Delivered The Profits In Live Trading for us!”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our bold claim of “we will produce the best Forex robot in existance” was now a reality – we PRODUCED the best Forex robot in existence! No fluff...no B.S.....no hype...no hand picked trades...no relying on backtesting...&lt;br /&gt;
...but PURE cold hard cash in a real LIVE account!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We actually released the Robot to a select group of people...we wanted to make sure that it is not only US who think that FAP Turbo is the ultimate most easy to use money making machine.&lt;br /&gt;
We wanted normal people, people without experience (people like many of those reading this letter now) and without Forex knowledge to test the Robot and our claims…&lt;br /&gt;

Yes, Automated Forex trading is possible! And YOU could do it too!&lt;br /&gt;
As you are reading this letter, the robot is actually producing for us and many other FAP Turbo owners real cash....it has been since we fired it up on our live accounts and it continues to nail trade after trade profitably, accurately and most importantly....HANDS FREE!&lt;br /&gt;
You have seen the results...you have witnessed how easy it is to make money trading Forex WITHOUT knowing anything about Forex!&lt;br /&gt;
And this is very important so please pay close attention...&lt;br /&gt;
FAP Turbo actually installs alone...you don't even have to do that.&lt;br /&gt;
Here is the thing...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
we are aware of the fact that many people are not very good friends with technology... hence, we really took the time and produced the most easy to install robot you will find.&lt;br /&gt;
You will actually be amazed when you see how easy and fast it is to get up and running!&lt;br /&gt;
We are giving a select group of people the opportunity to live the dream that EVERY single trader in the world has: trading with an automatic Robot that doubles cash every month!&lt;br /&gt;
FAP Turbo isn’t just a great trading product, it’s a complete income solution.&lt;br /&gt;
The biggest problems people have when searching for an income solution are that they don't have the required amount of time and/or money to invest in order to achieve success (or find something that actually WORKS!).&lt;br /&gt;
Pay close attention:&lt;br /&gt;
There is no other income opportunity on this planet that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Requires so little of your investment (can start with as little as $50),&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Requires absolutely no time commitment (set it...forget it!), and&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Results can be seen and ENJOYED within minutes of starting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 There is LIVE proof of what your future will be!&lt;br /&gt;
Mike, Ulrich, myself and many other FAP Turbo owners are living the dream of automatic cash... free time to do what we want...piles of money to buy what we want...vacationing WHEN we want rather than when we can...&lt;br /&gt;
“Living A Worries-Free...Debt-Free...Luxury Life Is A Reality No One Should Pass”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is truly not many times a great opportunity presents itself...I can actually count with one hand how many GOOD opportunities came my way through life...&lt;br /&gt;
How many can you count?&lt;br /&gt;
And from those you can count...how many did you step up to the plate and proved to yourself that you are doing something to make your life and that of those around you BETTER?&lt;br /&gt;
Taking a step towards a profitable and secure future is the difference between saying “I wish I would have taken that step”...and “I am glad I took that step”....thats what its all about in life...thats what it boils down to!&lt;br /&gt;
And you know...many people are now thinking to themselves...&lt;br /&gt;
“Forex has to do with finance...since the world is in a financial crisis, will the Robot actually work?&lt;br /&gt;
Well...ask any Forex robot developer the same question and you will get the same answer “Sure it will work!”... and give you afew B.S. arguments of why it should work.&lt;br /&gt;
NOT US!...we don't really care in feeding you some made up arguments.&lt;br /&gt;
We say...”Yes, FAP Turbo works throughout ANY market conditions with the exact same profitability and precision...”&lt;br /&gt;
And instead of arguments of “why” it should work...we show you concrete PROOF it works:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Result: 19 Winning Trades and Nearly $2,000 USD In Clear Profit!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
What are the above results?&lt;br /&gt;
Well...during the weekend of September 13–14, 2008, Lehman Brothers declared bankruptcy after failing to find a buyer...&lt;br /&gt;
Bank of America agreed to purchase Merrill Lynch...&lt;br /&gt;
The insurance company AIG sought a bridge loan from the Federal Reserve, and a consortium of 10 banks created an emergency fund of at least $70 billion to deal with the effects of Lehman's closure, similar to the consortium put forth by J.P. Morgan during the stock market panic of 1907 and the crash of 1929. Stocks on "Wall Street" tumbled on September 15.&lt;br /&gt;
To make a long story short....the above results (19 winning trades and a NET profit of nearly $2,000!) were achieved by FAP Turbo in one of the worlds worst crisis of the past 30 years!&lt;br /&gt;
And where were all the other Forex robots available in the market? Well...just visit a few Forex forums and you will quickly find out!&lt;br /&gt;
But...why stop?&lt;br /&gt;
Let's continue with more cold hard PROOF...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do you remember what happened a bit later, on September 25th 2008?&lt;br /&gt;
Well..let me remind you:&lt;br /&gt;
The biggest bank failure in history occurred when JP Morgan Chase agreed to purchase the banking assets of Washington Mutual.&lt;br /&gt;
On September 29, Citigroup beat out Wells Fargo to acquire the ailing Wachovia's assets and would pay $1 a share, or about $2.2 billion...&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, the FDIC said that the agency would absorb the company's losses above $42 billion; in exchange they would receive $12 billion in preferred stock and warrants from Citigroup in return for assuming that risk.&lt;br /&gt;
Again, let’s look at how Fap Turbo performed over the same time period:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Result: 9 Winning Trades and close to $1,000 in NET profit!&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
So...2 of the biggest crisis the world has seen in the past 30 years...&lt;br /&gt;
And what did FAP Turbo do? Produce cold hard cash!&lt;br /&gt;
How is that for a secure and stable cash producing solution! While everyone was trying to figure out what the hell is going on, FAP Turbo already figured out how to make money...and A LOT of it!&lt;br /&gt;
No arguments...no explanations...but real facts. Don't ever settle for less.&lt;br /&gt;
Let's take a close look at 10 FACTS that make FAP Turbo THE indisputable heavyweight champion:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Frequently Asked Questions&lt;br /&gt;
Like many others, you probably have a number of questions about the FAP Turbo so let's try to cover the most frequently asked questions we receive:&lt;br /&gt;
Q: Why are you selling FAP Turbo? Do you use it yourself?&lt;br /&gt;
1. We do use it ourselves- every day! You can see the results from the live accounts throughout the website. The Forex market is so HUGE and no matter how many people trade the Robot its accuracy and profitability will remain the same - so why not take a few people along for the ride? They make money (by trading with FAP Turbo) and we make money (by showing them how to use it). Simple. Everyone's happy and we get to invest the profits from selling FAP Turbo into our FAP Turbo live accounts!&lt;br /&gt;
2. If we are honest, it’s also a bit of an ego-boost. We want people to remember that we were the first people to create an automated Forex Robot that actually works in such an extremely good way and over delivers. We are really tired of all those mumbo jumbo promises of quick riches popping up on the net every other day and we want to be the beacon of light for the average person trying to make a decent living.&lt;br /&gt;
Q: Do I need to risk money if FAP Turbo works exactly as you’ve shown?”&lt;br /&gt;
No! First, you’ll have 2 whole months to test out the robot, and if it doesn’t live up to YOUR expectations – return it for a full no questions asked unconditional refund!&lt;br /&gt;
Also, one of the best features associated with FAP Turbo is that you can trade in a demo account until you feel comfortable going live (you can open a demo account with any broker for free and for as long as you want!).&lt;br /&gt;
This truly is a risk-free opportunity.&lt;br /&gt;
Q: OK so FAP Turbo is so effective because it trades for small, regular profits?&lt;br /&gt;
That’s right… the combination of small profits at regular intervals is the secret behind our loss minimizations techniques. We are currently clearing $1000 – $3000 per day in clear profit using the robot’s unique strategies.&lt;br /&gt;
Q: Isn't it a nightmare opening a Forex account? And what about how much money I need to open an account?&lt;br /&gt;
Opening an account couldn’t be easier. We will even guide you through the exact steps to get started with our personal Forex brokerage (if you want...or chose ANY other broker), and you can start with literally any amount! Some brokers out there will even let you start trading with as little $1.&lt;br /&gt;
We are VERY proud of our comprehensive members-zone. Every setup step is described in extreme detail PLUS further enhanced with a custom VIDEO tutorial. Should you have ANY question there is even our support telephone hotline guiding you all along the way! It simply doesn't get any better than that!&lt;br /&gt;
Q: Is it possible to make money on a day when the market falls badly?&lt;br /&gt;
Like I said before, we’re focusing on small movements in the market that are going to occur regardless of whether or not the markets crash or the economy is in recession. FAP Turbo places "sell" orders as well and capitalizes on falling market movements. Regardless where the economy is heading - You profit!&lt;br /&gt;
Q: "Do I need to have any technical knowledge or prior experience for this to work for me?"&lt;br /&gt;
Automated trading does not required advanced knowledge of the Forex market. All you need to do is to open a brokerage account, fund it and install the robot. We provide the detailed guide and video tutorials how to do it so you don't have any problems along the way.&lt;br /&gt;
Q: Can you guarantee I will make money with this?&lt;br /&gt;
While we can’t make any explicit guarantee that you will make money (this is illegal) you only need to check out our unique ‘make money’ or it’s free guarantee later on. You can demo with it using none of your own money until you're happy it works. Remember, we're going for a modest return on a daily basis which means low risk. That's another reason why we can boast a 99% success rate.&lt;br /&gt;
Q: Does the Robot have to trade every single day for it to work well? Do I have to do anything at all?&lt;br /&gt;
Fap Turbo decides when the markets are hot and when a trade opportunity presents itself. YOU do not have to do absolutely anything. Simply leave your machine on and watch the robot do its magic!&lt;br /&gt;
Q: I've tried trading systems before and they never work.&lt;br /&gt;
That’s hardly surprising, given that the majority of ‘systems’ out there are completely incapable of trading on the real live markets. Remember this entire project has been overseen by some of the brightest brains in the industry, and uses a revolutionary trading algorithm that forces it to make money.&lt;br /&gt;
This is unlike anything you have seen or experienced before.&lt;br /&gt;
Q: How does the system operate and what does it include?&lt;br /&gt;
As soon as you sign-up for FAP Turbo you’ll receive your very own welcome package and access to your VIP Members area. From here you’ll be given your unique license key for the robot. As soon as the robot is installed on your computer, you’re ready to follow the step-by-step training instructions and set yourself on the path to success.&lt;br /&gt;
Once you've absorbed all you need to know, just sit back, relax and watch as your robot goes to work for you!&lt;br /&gt;
Q: Can anyone do this?&lt;br /&gt;
If you have a computer with Internet access and can understand simple instructions then YES you can do this!&lt;br /&gt;
Simply follow the Step by Step instructions in the VIP members area and start making money!&lt;br /&gt;
This opportunity is available to EVERYONE.&lt;br /&gt;
This is a rock solid way to make money online. The Forex market will always be profitable, so you'll always have a way to make money from home! Just check out some of the testimonials to see what other members have said about this exclusive opportunity&lt;br /&gt;
Q: What qualities do I need in order to use the Robot?&lt;br /&gt;
All you need to have is the will to succeed. Nothing else matters. If you treat this as a serious business opportunity you will make the sort of money you have seen us making throughout the website.&lt;br /&gt;
Q: Is there a contact number I can call, should I need some additional help?&lt;br /&gt;
You bet. Our customer support team are always on hand to answer your questions.&lt;br /&gt;
(Altough we doubt you could ever have any since its such a simple setup process!)&lt;br /&gt;
Q: Do I have to leave my computer turned on all the time in order for FAP Turbo to work properly?&lt;br /&gt;
Well, and this is what separates FAP Turbo from 99% of other Forex robots out there, you have the option of not using your computer at ALL!&lt;br /&gt;
Let me explain.&lt;br /&gt;
You have two options when using FAP Turbo:&lt;br /&gt;
Option #1:&lt;br /&gt;
You can simply download the Robot and use it with your current Forex broker.&lt;br /&gt;
However, you will have to have your computer turned on constantly for that.&lt;br /&gt;
OR&lt;br /&gt;
Option #2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can have FAP Turbo installed on our server, we take care of that. This way, you will not have to have your computer turned on EVER!&lt;br /&gt;
This is actually something we have been working on very hard because we know the problem people have with keeping their computer turned on at all times.&lt;br /&gt;
And remember, you have full control over FAP Turbo as if it were on your computer! The process is quite simple actually and once in the download area we will guide you through it. And as always, if you have any questions at all regarding this area or ANYTHING else our support staff is available for you via email or telephone.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You Have Seen The Real Deal...You Have Seen The LIVE Proof....And You Have Seen Why FAP Turbo Is Not Just A Claim...But The Most Profitable Forex Robot In Existence...&lt;br /&gt;
It is not just a bold claim that the robot makes money, and a lot of it....&lt;br /&gt;
It is not just a bold claim that it is easy to use....&lt;br /&gt;
And it is not just a bold claim that there is no Robot out there able to match (even CLOSELY) FAP Turbo's results...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
IT'S REALITY!&lt;br /&gt;
But you know what...more important than everything...&lt;br /&gt;
Our main income does not come from selling to you FAP Turbo. No. As you have already seen, we make A LOT of money by trading it. No matter how many copies of the robot we sell, we will never even come to a fraction of the profit we generate by trading it on our own live accounts!&lt;br /&gt;
Further...every single cent from the sale of FAP Turbo goes directly to it's trading.&lt;br /&gt;
That is what you can call “they are confident in their product” and “they put their money where their mouth is”!&lt;br /&gt;
Throughout the last few days many people have been asking about the price of FAB Turbo. Some people even thought that it will be priced in the $1,000's.&lt;br /&gt;
Both you and me know that charging $1,000 or $2,000 for this robot is a good price. And this is not just some “marketing” B.S. trying to inflate the value of the product.&lt;br /&gt;
If a Robot can turn $300 into $3,000 in 1 month (as you have seen in the live account proof earlier)....there is absolutely no reason to NOT charge such a price tag.&lt;br /&gt;
Now...the problem of charging a high price tag is quite simple. Most people 9and I am talking of over 90% out there) would not have the necessary funds to get a copy of the Robot.&lt;br /&gt;
They lose because they do not have the chance to trade FAP Turbo....I lose because I don't get more funds to put into my FAP Turbo live account....bottom line, bad business for all of us.&lt;br /&gt;
Hence, we decided on a middle ground: a $399 per month subscription. That is fair...&lt;br /&gt;
Why?&lt;br /&gt;
Most can afford it, and since FAP Turbo can make that type of profit in a day or less, the subscription price would actually be paid by the profits the robot generates.&lt;br /&gt;
We all win! You get FAP Turbo for a great affordable price, I get income to trade my live accounts and everyone is happy.&lt;br /&gt;
However, because this is the official launch of FAP Turbo I am going to do something great here...something unheard of.&lt;br /&gt;
I am going to charge you a one time payment of only $149, no recurring billing...nothing!&lt;br /&gt;
Why am I doing this?&lt;br /&gt;
Quite simple. Because FAP Turbo is new and I want to show EVERYONE that it is the absolute best robot in the market. I want the word to spread out as much as possible. I want to create a great name for this product.&lt;br /&gt;
It is not enough that I know it is a great product, a cash pulling machine....I want everyone else out there to know it as well...to profit from it as I do day in and day out!&lt;br /&gt;
The special introductory one time payment price of $149 will be available ONLY DURING THE LAUNCH PERIOD. After that FAP Turbo will be a recurring subscription product.&lt;br /&gt;
In other words, if you buy FAP Turbo now you will only pay $149 and will never be charge again, ever.&lt;br /&gt;
You will enjoy ALL the benefits that people who buy the product after the launch at the new recurring billing pricing model will enjoy but for a fraction of the price...only $149 ONE TIME PAYMENT!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Take advantage of this opportunity while it is still available.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
100% No Questions Asked Money Back Guarantee&lt;br /&gt;
It’s simple…&lt;br /&gt;
You have seen a lot on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
You witnessed unheard of proof.&lt;br /&gt;
You saw what FAP Turbo is doing right now and how it’s performing.&lt;br /&gt;
You now know this is the best Robot in the market.&lt;br /&gt;
BUT…&lt;br /&gt;
It doesn’t matter what we think…how FAP Turbo is performing for us or other users… it only matters what YOU think!&lt;br /&gt;
If for ANY reason at all you feel FAP Turbo is not for you, just send us your trading screenshots (or call us…there is a support hotline available to clients) within the first 60 days after purchase for a complete no questions asked refund.&lt;br /&gt;
Update January 12 2012 8:12 PM: Server Overladen &amp; Costs increased&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunateley we can NOT cope with the load of visitors.&lt;br /&gt;

As a result, we are constantily reviewing the price of Fapturbo to make sure it is in line with our rising costs.

Fapturbo sold over 55,000 copies now making it the BEST selling robot worldwide and was subject to several updates to keep its peek performance.. Competitors have come and gone because they were just after the quick buck flooding the forex scene with worthless not working crap or even worse what i call "get-your-hopes-up-for-a-week-then-blow-your- account-martingale-trading-sceme-crap". What you get with us is a LIFETIME SERVICE. We became so popular on forex for a reason.&lt;br /&gt;
Because we keep developing and we keep ensuring maximum profitability for us and our community. Just now we released the new Fapturbo Ichimoku Bonus Robot FREE of charge (as usual) to our members adding a new INCREDBILY good performing settings, Ichimoku filter and many new features that have been tested over months.&lt;br /&gt;
Remember: Fapturbo is the worlds BEST selling Sit-At-Home Solution for a reason. Because we build a TEAM and because we work together and earn together with our happy clients.&lt;br /&gt;

Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
It does not matter. You can do whatever you want first. To trade you need both anyways. #222&lt;br /&gt;
Mirza says:&lt;br /&gt;
What is minimum account deposit to run this robot successfully? Can it work with $5 account :)&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Robot can work with any account size. For small accounts you will have microlots. $5 does not make any sense because your profit will be 1 cent lol. It is better to start with $100 or $500 so your profits are real. #221&lt;br /&gt;
Again John says:&lt;br /&gt;
In all of the tutorial video will explain me what exchange i wil do ? USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, CAD, HKD , because i heard i can do just 3 pairs&lt;br /&gt;

Hi, I am from Bulgaria and I use Fapturbo on a real account from 2 weeks /after a month demo/, I think that it works good, but the last monday i didn't know that there is a holiday in USA, and i realised some lost. The total results is gain from 900 to 940 for this 2 weeks. Because my account is little, i decided to choose 2 / max three/ pairs to trade. I imported the deals presented at the site to excel and calculated which are the best performance pairs for the last year, quarter and month, and I decided to trade gbpchf, eurchf and eurgbp. I think that the market is too dynamic and it is useful for me periodically to analyze the best performing pairs and to change the strategy. As a hole I am impressed by the system and think that is very good. Congratulations to the inventors and I hope that there will be periodical updates in relation to the changing market conditions:) Sincerely yours, V.B. #210&lt;br /&gt;

Jack Wong says:&lt;br /&gt;
Hi there,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am very impressed with your FAPTurbo. I really wanna purchase it at the price of RM149. But the only problem is I do not have Credit Card. Is there another way of purchasing this ultimate tool? Such as deducting the money from my bank number without using Credit Card? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I really trust FAPTurbo. I really wanna give it a try as my opportunity to raise financial freedom. Please reply.&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Please contact our support for alternative payment solutions #204&lt;br /&gt;
Kenny McGinty says:&lt;br /&gt;
I live in the UK, can I use fapturbo on a spread betting account?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Fapturbo is a Forex Trading robot for MT4, not for spread betting. #203&lt;br /&gt;
kabiru mafindi says:&lt;br /&gt;
i need trial version of fapturbo&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
We don't have any trial versions. However we have 60 day money back guarantee. So there is no risk #202&lt;br /&gt;
Christian says:&lt;br /&gt;
Hi guys,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am interested in purchasing the FapTurbo software within the next few months and I live in Australia. Is it possible to contact you directly via email outside of an open blog page? And if so what is the email address?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This system seems to have mostly positive reviews which is a good sign for any software company selling robot software. I am very interested but am not comfortable discussing details in the open. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Look forward to a reply,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Christian, You can contact support by support@fapturbo.com #201&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
cory bell says:&lt;br /&gt;
Why do you not have any 2009 or2010 results posted on your web page?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
This is not true. All account are updated in real time and contain all the current info for 2009-2011. Just scroll the account and you'll see it #200&lt;br /&gt;
Gagan says:&lt;br /&gt;
Hi,&lt;br /&gt;
Just curious, why your live statements are not updated yet. They are from Jan 14th . Have there been no trades since then or you guys update later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Statements are not updated on the weekends when the markets are closed. Sometimes a bug in MT4 can cause the delay with the update. We check them every week to let the publishing work properly. #199&lt;br /&gt;
timothy okafor says:&lt;br /&gt;
I, resides in Nigeria can i order Fap Turbo forex robot?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, contact our support for details. #198&lt;br /&gt;
Eddy says:&lt;br /&gt;
Fapturbo is surely profitable but can be better for the short and long run if an improvement is added to the robot for closing orders at small loss when a trend looks to be possibly starting in opposite direction of the order especially when an order is opened at sell and it must had been a buy or vice versa( as seen when the price reach stop loss). &lt;br /&gt;
By this, no pair will be reaching the stop loss. so gains will be consitent while when loss comes from time to time it will be small losses.&lt;br /&gt;
I think this is the only major weak point that many fapturbo users are facing.&lt;br /&gt;
Besides, if fapturbo owners can add a special part in the forum area to daily update FT users about what pairs might be profitable with FT trading this day and which pairs can be bad to be set for FT trading especailly that FT owners can do backtests on the robot for all pairs and nearly determine which pairs might appear the best performing ones for this or that day.&lt;br /&gt;
Other than that, Everything is great, good gains and superb work by FT guys.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hope this message is taken by open heart and miind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Jason says:&lt;br /&gt;
Hi ,Im totally new to forex and a bit scared as there are so many scams on the net. Can anyone from Europe tell me that this Robot really works and there is no catch whatsoever. Also is it easy to use and operate as I have never done Forex before. Thanks&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Jason, there are hundreds of comments here, reviews and testimonials from the whole world. There is no catch here. #194&lt;br /&gt;
George says:&lt;br /&gt;
what lotrisk reductor should i use for all the currents traded fy fapturbo&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
That depends on your trading behavior and what kind of risk / gains you are expecting. The good idea is to start with LLR = 5 and see from there. You can always increase your LLR if you feel comfortable. This is explained in the GUIDE #193&lt;br /&gt;
Salleh says:&lt;br /&gt;
Hello, is the Fapturbo price still $149, I want to purchase it soon.thank you.&lt;br /&gt;

Yes you are not limited to any PC. You are only limited to 1 live account and unlimited demo accounts. PC does not matter. You can trade anywhere! #190&lt;br /&gt;
Gagan says:&lt;br /&gt;
The website looks impressive.Hope it delivers!!&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Sure it does. #189&lt;br /&gt;
Joe says:&lt;br /&gt;
What is my cost to run FapTurbo on the VPS system? Where can I go on the net to learn more about the Forex market and Forex trading?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Fapturbo has video tutorials about forex basics inside the member area for you. The cost of VPS is normally $69/month but you could get a free VPS with Iamfx.com brokerage #188&lt;br /&gt;
Ross says:&lt;br /&gt;
I have a small account but i got +24% gain last month. not bad #187&lt;br /&gt;
Ken Sailor says:&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you guys for the robot. I am using it on VPS alongside with megadroid and it works well. #186&lt;br /&gt;
Jeff says:&lt;br /&gt;
Does the bot use a fixed lot size or does it increase lot size if a loss is made in order to recoup previous losses i.e. a variation on a martingale system?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
There is no martingale system involved in Fapturbo. It does not increase lot to recover the loss. #185&lt;br /&gt;
Jeff says:&lt;br /&gt;
I notice you mention a fixed stop loss - how many pips is the stop loss set at?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Stop loss depends on the currency pair. For EURGBP it is 35. Fapturbo has a special Stealth mode which hides the real stop loss from the brokers. you will be able to set your own stop loss in the settings. #184&lt;br /&gt;
bill says:&lt;br /&gt;
i just want to try to post a comment.&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
No more test comments will be approved. Please kindly post only real comments - questions or feedback. #183&lt;br /&gt;
efel1970 says:&lt;br /&gt;
I am very impressed with everything I have seen and read here. I am fresh from a nasty experience with a robot very recently launched on the market, that simply did not work - at all - even on backtest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I like the way this webpage has been presented, very individually styled... very personal. It doesn't follow the same old, same old...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And that gives me confidence to try your software. I'm looking forward to it. #182&lt;br /&gt;
adelika says:&lt;br /&gt;
to Ann - I did not have forex education too. I trade my fapturbo on VPS on EURGBP M15 and it works great. easy to install. Hope this helps. They have a guide and videos. #181&lt;br /&gt;
Rich, UK says:&lt;br /&gt;
With everybody and his brother selling half baked systems it is refreshing to see what you are offering here and on the main web site. I truly appreciate the valuable information, folks. Withy your help, perhaps we can avoid some of the pit falls. #180&lt;br /&gt;
francis says:&lt;br /&gt;
Well, judging by other comments, I'm clearly not the only one who has already spent thousands dollars on various systems, Forex Robots, etc. And still waiting to see profitable returns. If Fapturbo Forex robot can help me, even if its only to recover my costs, I'd definitely take up your offer, guys. Especially since I need an income for my "twilight" years! #179&lt;br /&gt;
Ann says:&lt;br /&gt;
Can anyone trade this? I dont know forex.&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
If you have a computer with Internet access and can understand simple instructions then YES you can do this!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply follow the Step by Step instructions in the VIP members area and start making money within 5 minutes of joining! #178&lt;br /&gt;
Brian Dale says:&lt;br /&gt;
I don't normally feel inclined to offer thanks for a Forex product and I realize that at this time you must be very busy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However I must congratulate you on a wonderful achievement. Me and my colleague have designed half a dozen EA's of our own so I can fully understand the difficulties on getting it working correctly never mind profitably. It's still early days yet of course but the EA seems to hold it's own in all conditions and to say that I have been impressed with it is a massive understatement. I shouldn't say this really but i reckon you could have made the price $300 (or more) to start with. I was happy to buy it for $97 which is an absolute steal for me of course.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I guess it's also unfortunate that most of the people buying this cash machine will never end up trading it live. Those that are willing to trust their gut however could be very wealthy in the years to come. If any of you guys ever visit the East Coast of Australia then I'd love to shake your hands and thank you for not keeping this wondefrul robot to yourselves. If it is true that what goes around comes around then I'm sure that you guys will achive everything you want to.&lt;br /&gt;
Once again thanks for giving me a real shot at financial freedom. #177&lt;br /&gt;
alan hook, england says:&lt;br /&gt;
hi just to let you know that i have used your trader and fapturbo and doubled my demo account in 3 weeks great. due to fxdd being overwhelmed it is taking 2 weeks to get a real account . thanks again #176&lt;br /&gt;
jj . says:&lt;br /&gt;
Have to admit, skeptical about robots as all i tried before non really work as the developers claimed, but the transparency on your system pushes one to tried out, hope this one will share some light into the Forex tunnel :) #175&lt;br /&gt;

ken s. junior says:&lt;br /&gt;
How does the system operate and what does it include?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
As soon as you sign-up for FAP Turbo you'll receive your very own welcome package and access to your VIP Members area. From here you'll be given your unique license key for the robot. As soon as the robot is installed on your computer, you're ready to follow the step-by-step training instructions and set yourself on the path to success.&lt;br /&gt;
Once you've absorbed all you need to know, just sit back, relax and watch as your robot goes to work for you! #168&lt;br /&gt;
Surfer says:&lt;br /&gt;
I bought a copy of FapTurbo EA from you guys. After 1st day of trading (while I was away at work) I lost 2 of 3 trades. I was like, "Uh oh!" Since this EA is the MOST complicated I ever bought and used, I was NOT sure if I set it right — the configurations, settings, etc. I re-read the manual and double checked the results by comparing the statistics of my account against the 3 accounts that are posted in the website. For example, how many pips? Held for how long, and which way did it go? Buy or sell? Etc., etc. Turns out I did set it correctly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was tempted to ask for a refund...however...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I decided to keep it running for another day, knowing that the European markets would shift after the Fed Reserve's announcement of a new $800 billion infusion into our banks (aside from the $700 billion bailout)...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Good news! Next day (2nd day) FapTurbo did 10 more trades and ALL of them profitable!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whewwwwww!! I am now in the black! Yessss!&lt;br /&gt;
You guys did an amazing job!! I am anxiously looking forward to a long-time and profitable relationship. #167&lt;br /&gt;
pedro says:&lt;br /&gt;
I've tried over 70 EA's in the last three years with one partial success so I'm sceptical. I will try it on a demo account for a month to see if it is profitable. If it is then it will go on an Alpari UK live micro-account.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I look forward to testing it. #166&lt;br /&gt;
ruben says:&lt;br /&gt;
I definitely need something to recoup all the money that I have put out for the idol promises from the past. Maybe I was just looking for that HOLY GRAIL, so I sat down and started reading everything on Forex that I could get my hands on. Learned a little, but confused a lot. Now the proof that you have provided lightens up my heart, maybe this is finally the Holy Grail to we all want. Anxiously awaiting for the release, so that I can send you positive feedback rather than the doom and gloom comments that I have written in the past. #165&lt;br /&gt;
Xman says:&lt;br /&gt;
I've tried trading systems before and they never work. Is it a SCAM too?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That's hardly surprising, given that the majority of 'systems' out there are completely incapable of trading on the real live markets. Remember this entire project has been overseen by some of the brightest brains in the industry, and uses a revolutionary trading algorithm that forces it to make money.&lt;br /&gt;
This is unlike anything you have seen or experienced before. #164&lt;br /&gt;

Jason says:&lt;br /&gt;
Is it possible to make money on a day when the market falls badly?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Like I said before, we're focusing on small movements in the market that are going to occur regardless of whether or not the markets crash or the economy is in recession. FAP Turbo places "sell" orders as well and capitalizes on falling market movements. Regardless where the economy is heading - You profit! #160&lt;br /&gt;

wondering says:&lt;br /&gt;
Do I need to risk money if FAP Turbo works exactly as you've shown?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
No! First, you'll have 2 whole months to test out the robot, and if it doesn't live up to YOUR expectations - return it for a full no questions asked unconditional refund!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also, one of the best features associated with FAP Turbo is that you can trade in a demo account until you feel comfortable going live (you can open a demo account with any broker for free and for as long as you want!).&lt;br /&gt;
This truly is a risk-free opportunity. #158&lt;br /&gt;

hi folks I am really happy to say that i am revealed to come upon this site... I have never seen any forex software exposed in real life account like this. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And i really appreciated to find this site... and i already sent it to my two friends to look at it and see what they get from it. I cant wait to get ma hands on this EA... I lost $5000 trying to trade forex after taking 2 years trading, but what makes me happy is that i never had that thought of quiting, so with God's help i am in this site today which i think it will end my days of frustrations. &lt;br /&gt;

I'm writing to let you know that so far I'm very astounded by your EA. I have traded the market since 2003 (6 years) manually and also with robots... I have purchased every course, every EA, every software program... and spent thousands.... I don't care that I've spent thousands because the Forex market is worth it..... I bought your EA the other day and put it to work..... Over 900+ pips in two days.... 900 PIPS IN TWO DAYS!!! Once again 900 PIPS in 2 days. #140&lt;br /&gt;
Pet says:&lt;br /&gt;
Thousands of people are throwing away their hard earned cash because of scam artists parading as forex robot messiahs. None of them are doing what you are doing. You are putting your faith in your system and are willing to show us truthfully that it works. So if you are putting your reputation on the table so openly; it must work. No one does what you are doing; this is the real deal #139&lt;br /&gt;

My first trade is losing. is it a scam?&lt;br /&gt;

No, forex trading involves winning and losing trades. You cant win all the time. Check the trading accounts- sometimes they lose a trade or two but overall in big profit! #125&lt;br /&gt;

My name is Nathan Van Giacometti from Switzerland. On the forex market I work almost ten years and during this time I have really big experience with a lot of commercial EA's.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When I found information about release of Fapt Forex Robot - it was looks like usual scam, but results have appeared more than unexpected. I was betatester of it and after a while, I very in detail learned all information on the Fapt Forex Robot's website with a lot of great results of trading and has read many good reviews of other beta testers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just should do my job and I can't to say anything to developers.. Well, when I got a Fapt Forex Robot, I tested it on the different brokers with diverse parameters and got very good results. Without forward tests on the demo account I started to use it on my real money with a micro lots and thus far it have impressive results. #123&lt;br /&gt;

Vince L. says:&lt;br /&gt;
Been following Forex now for about a year now. Been reading books, watching videos and anything else to give me a better understanding on this. I have also been teaching myself MQL4 and analyzing all of the EAs on the forums. Been running several demo accounts trying manual as well as automated trading. Developed a few EAs but still nothing to what you claim Fapturbo Robot can do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Your results look great and it would appear that we have seen the live accounts you mentioned here. I have never bought an EA before as I felt they were scams. With your story here about the development and testing of this, I am going to go on some "Blind Faith" and purchase Fapt Robot. If it can help recoup at least what I paid for it, then I would feel ok about the purchase. We shall see how this plays out in the coming weeks. I will let you know. #115&lt;br /&gt;

question says:&lt;br /&gt;
I am new to this!! Got the robot yesterday!! What are the differences between FAPTURBO Short Term and Long Term Strategy?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
FAPTURBO is a powerful combination of 2 strategies: Short Term Scalping Strategy and Long Term Advanced FAP strategy. Both strategies are built inside one FAPTURBO expert advisor and can be switched on and off easily using UseScalperStrategy parameter in FAPTURBO settings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each strategy uses its own designed timeframe and currencies so be sure you use the strategy on proper currency pair and timeframe. You will find full details on each strategy and its parameters in the FAPTURBO GUIDE and Video Tutorials #74&lt;br /&gt;

dan2001 says:&lt;br /&gt;
What timeframe and currency should I choose?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
FAPTURBO has 2 built-in strategies. Each strategy is designed for its own timeframe &amp; currency pairs. For example Long term strategy works only on EURUSD M1. The scalping short term strategy works on 4 pairs: EURGBP, GBPCHF, EURCHF &amp; USDCAD, M15 Timeframe #70&lt;br /&gt;
Sandor says:&lt;br /&gt;

1965 says:&lt;br /&gt;
How much money do I need to start trading?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Depending on your broker terms, you can start trading with as little as $100. Remember that starting out with low trading capital may put you at disadvantage because you will only be able to trade the market in small share sizes. We recommend that you start with capital of $1,000-5,000 USD or train on a Demo account till you are satisfied with the performance. #60&lt;br /&gt;

What is Virtual Private Server (VPS)?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
VPS is a special service that can host your trading on a remote server so you no longer need to keep your PC on 24/5 for trading! #57&lt;br /&gt;
james says:&lt;br /&gt;
The broker you are using is IamFX, which I believe is one of the best for running robots. I have tried all the new robots recently and find that the broker is almost your biggest challenge . The spreads are the difference between trading or not. Ultimately since the GREAT NFA has changed that, do you have any experience with other brokers that can give the same results. I was running FAPTURBO on IAMFX and was great now I have been running Demos on many brokers trying to find a good match. Thanks, James&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
The list of recommended brokers is inside the member area #56&lt;br /&gt;

helen says:&lt;br /&gt;
Should i start Demo or Real account?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
You should always try your expert advisors on Demo account first to check if your broker is compatible with your current expert advisor! We don't recommend trading on Real account without testing on Demo first! #53&lt;br /&gt;
bud says:&lt;br /&gt;
Can fapturbo work when I am away or go out?&lt;br /&gt;
Answer:&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, they can work 24 hours/day for you. You don't need to monitor the trades if you don't have enough free time. Our Robot Advisors will monitor the trades, open orders and close positions for you when needed. Just keep your MetaTrader on to let fapturbo work its magic! #52&lt;br /&gt;
DeWayne Strickland says:&lt;br /&gt;
I just purchased FAP Turbo about a day ago and I have had all winning trades on my 15M charts! I never have seen a robot work this well! The only area of trading it seems to need tweaking is the EUR/USD, other than that it is excellent! #51&lt;br /&gt;

Ayurveda is one of the ancient systems of Medicine. Its origin is in Indian subcontinent. It is the oldest continuously practiced system of medicine and it still have its imporatance. This systems consider man as a part of nature itself and treatment are based on this assumption. It uses medicines that are got from the nature itself. It is most widely used and practiced in India, Nepal, Srilanka and there are a lot of Western people who believes in this treatment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda is being practiced from prevedic period of 5000BC onwards. Charak samhitha and Sushruta Samhita are two classical Ayurvedic texts which were written around 1000BC. Rigveda and Atharva veda also discuss about this type of medicinal system. In Indian Epics also Ayurveda has its importance. In Both Ramayana and Mahabharatha the Medicinal plants are given their importance.&lt;br /&gt;

Ayurveda means ‘knowledge of a long living' or ‘Wisdom for living'. Ayurvedic treatment is not only based on physical condition but also give importance to astrological and environmental features such as seasons and weathers. In ayurveda the main priority is to the levels of energy(prana). There are 5 elements which is known as ‘panchabootha' by which all matters are made up of. They are Water, Fire, Earth, Air and Ether (space). Our senses are also five (‘Pancha Indriya'). Each of this senses correspondes to these five elements. They together give rise to 3 doshas Kapha, Vata, and Pitta. Each of this Doshas affect specific parts of body like Kapha affect lungs and chest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Ayurveda the detection of disease is based on the Doshas actually they are finding the imbalance in Doshas and this is the diagnosing technique. Person's life style has important affet in the balance of Doshas, hence it is much compelled that the patient have to follow some diet instructions given by the doctor like should not eat oily foods. Some exercises are also reffered.</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></item><item><title>Importance of Ayurveda</title><link>http://rejoice2all.blogspot.com/2012/01/importance-of-ayurveda.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (shlok)</author><pubDate>Fri, 6 Jan 2012 02:17:00 -0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415059177140328123.post-6802125051268156936</guid><description>THE IMPORTANCE AND VALUE OF THE ANCIENT INDIAN SYSTEM OF MEDICINE&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ancient intuitive India that brought to being the brightest and the most inspired of eternal spiritual songs on the struggles and problems of active life in this terrestrial world in relation to the highest End of Existence which Self-realisation is, and embodied them in the four Vedas, could not resist its native many-sided tendency not merely to subject the entire nature of man to a process of dynamic spiritualisation, but literally to seek the health, strength, vim, vitality, longevity of the third of the triune aspect of man,—the physical body, which is recognized as the indispensable and perfectible vehicle for both the enjoyment of temporal happiness and supreme spiritual felicity. This tendency of an essentially intuitive mind, towards an integral development of life, towards a complete blossoming of the whole man even while living in a physical form in this material world, this impassioned affirmation of positive living, this acceptance of the body as the best instrument for the realization here on earth, of the best blessings of the profound spiritual realms, resulted in the obtainment of the yet unmatched, deepest insights, the subtle determining vital powers and secrets in the human system that govern its radiant health and longevity and in the creation of a yet another Veda, the Ayurveda. Ayurveda is a perfect science of life and consists of a body of most remarkable knowledge on the internal mechanism of human health and longevity, on medicinal herbs and therapeutic roots, on the efficacious treatment of human ills by eradicating from the human system the very sources of their causation. This great medical science and humanity’s most ancient and finest preventive school of practical medicine, which has been practised in India, century after century for over four thousand years, by expert Vaidyas well-versed and highly trained in its lore, should now receive, as a matter of immediate practical necessity, the increasing and the best interest of modern free India. To those who claim to have a knowledge of this ancient medicinal science enriched by the happy results of the researches and advancement made by eminent Vaidyas in succeeding ages, its superior merits over the Western systems of medicine, and its immense value, do not need any delineation. Such names of the great pioneers who added to the development of the science of Ayurveda, as Vagbhata, Madhava, Jivaka and Bhava Mishra of Banaras are well-known, and the almost miraculous results that the medicinal herbs prescribed by Ayurveda have brought into the systems of those who have used them, are more than sufficient proof of its unique value. The amazingly wide scope and the genuine scientific nature of Ayurveda received much enthusiastic appreciation by such Westerners as Sri William Hunter, too, and the recent researches show that the early Greeks owed much of their knowledge on the physiology of man and medicine, to Ayurveda. The interest of Government of India, in Ayurveda is indeed most encouraging, but the private bodies and the public too should come to an increasing recognition of its importance and value, and as a first step begin trying its drugs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Origin of Ayurveda&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Lord Himself is the first divine physician. He is the best among physicians.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
—Lord Dhanwantari.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once upon a time some distinguished sages happened to meet on the Himalayan mountains, among them being Agastya, Ashvalyana, Asita, Badarayana, Balikhya, Bharadwaja, Chyavana, Devala, Dhaumya, Galaya, Garga, Gautama, Gobhila, Harita, Hiranyaksha, Jamadagni, Kamya, Kankayana, Kapinjala, Kashyapa, Katyayana, Kaundinya, Kushika, Langakshi, Maitreya, Markandeya, Narada, Parashara, Parikshaka, Pulasthya, Sankhya, Sankritya, Shakuneya, Shandilya, Sharaloma, Shaunaka, Vaijapeya, Vaikhanasa, Vamadeva, Vasishtha, Vishwamitra and many others. All of them were well-versed in philosophy and practised religious austerities. The subject of their conversation was the ‘ills that the flesh is heir to’. They began to complain: “Our body, which is the means of attaining the four aims of life, viz., virtue, worldly pursuits, pleasure and liberation, is subject to diseases which emaciate and weaken it, deprive the senses of their functions, and cause extreme pains. These diseases are great impediments to our worldly affairs and bring on premature death. In the face of such enemies, how can men be happy? It is necessary, therefore, to find remedies for such diseases.” They turned to sage Bharadwaja, and thus addressed him:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“O Sage! Thou art the fittest person among us. Go thou to the thousand-eyed Indra, who has systematically studied the Ayurveda, and by acquiring from him the knowledge of that science, free us, O sage, from the scourge of diseases.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“So be it,” said the sage, who at once went to Indra and thus accosted him: “O Lord, I have been deputed by the parliament of sages, to learn from you the remedies for the direful diseases that afflict mankind; I pray you, therefore, to teach me the Ayurveda.”&lt;br /&gt;
Indra was pleased with the object of his mission, and taught him the Ayurveda in all its parts. Bharadwaja recounted the precepts he had acquired to the other sages who had deputed him, and with the knowledge of this science they were able to live in health and happiness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Indra taught the science to his pupil Atreya, who wrote several works. Atreya Samhita is a celebrated book. Atreya is one of the oldest authorities on Hindu medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
Brahma propounded the healing art first. He composed the Ayurveda consisting of one hundred chapters of one hundred stanzas each. It is the oldest medical book of the Hindus. It is divided into eight parts:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(1) Shalya: Surgery. (2) Shalaka: Treatment of disease of the eye, nose, mouth, ears, etc. (3) Kaya Chikitsa: Treatment of general diseases affecting the whole body, such as, fever, diabetes, etc. (4) Bhoota-vidya: Treatment of diseases caused by evil spirits. (5) Kumara Bhritya: Treatment of infants and of puerperal state. (6) Agada: Antidotes to poisons: (7) Rasayana: Treats of medicines which promote health and longevity, which preserve vigour, restore youth, improve memory, cure and prevent diseases in general. (8) Vajikarana or aphrodisiac: Describes the means of increasing the virile power, of giving tone to the weakened organs of generation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nidane Madhava Shreshthah, Sutra Sthane Tu Vagbhatah;&lt;br /&gt;
Sharire Sushrutah Proktah, Charakastu Chikitsake.&lt;br /&gt;
It means Madhava is unrivalled in Diagnosis. Vagbhata in principles and practice of Medicine. Sushruta in Surgery and Charaka in Therapeutic. In his old age Madhava became an ascetic and assued the name of Vidyaranya (forest of learning).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charaka is said to have been an incarnation of Shesha—the Serpent God with a thousand hoods—who is supposed to be the depository, of all sciences, especially of medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charaka, the son of Vishuddha, a learned Muni, flourished during the Vedic period. Some believe him to have been born at Banaras 320 years B.C. He was the greatest physician of his day, and his “Charaka Samhita” is still held to be a standard work on medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
Charaka Samhita and Sushruta Ayurveda are the oldest and most reputed treatises on Hindu medicine now extant. Charaka Samhita is generally believed to be the oldest work on Hindu medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Atreya taught the Ayurveda to six pupils, namely Agnivesa, Bhela, Jatukarna, Parasara, Harita and Kharapani. Agnivesa first wrote a book on medicine. It was edited and corrected by Charaka.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Next to Charaka the authority on Hindu medicine is Vagbhata, who flourished about the second century before Christ. He was an inhabitant of Sindh. Vagbhata wrote Ashtanga Hridaya. This is a mere compilation from Charaka and Sushruta.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dhanwantari, the surgeon of heaven descended upon earth in the person of Dividasa, king of Banaras for teaching surgery. Sushruta learnt surgery from Dhanwantari. Sushruta treats of anatomy, surgical diseases, surgical instruments, operations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The general diseases such as fever, diarrhoea, chest diseases etc. are treated in the book called “Uttara-tantra”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Madhava or Madhavacharya, who wrote several works embracing almost all branches of Hindu learning was born in Kishkindha now called Golkonda in South India.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhava Mishra, author of Bhava Prakasha lived in 1550 A.D. He was considered to be the best scholar of his time in Madra Desha.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Madhava Kara wrote the book Nidana. This is a concise treatise, on the causes, symptoms, and prognosis of diseases. It is a text book on pathology.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chakrapani Datta wrote Chakradatta Sangraha. It deals with the treatment of diseases.&lt;br /&gt;
Bhava Misra was an inhabitant of Banaras, where he is said to have had no less than four hundred pupils. Bhava Misra wrote a book called Bhavaprakasha. It is a comprehensive treatise compiled from the works of preceding authors. There is additional information on the properties of drugs, accounts of new drugs and of some new diseases like syphilis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then followed Sharangadhara, son of Damodara, who wrote a treatise bearing his name. The work is divided into twenty-five chapters, and is a very popular work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are several works in Sanskrit devoted especially to the description of the synonyms and properties of drugs and articles of diet. The oldest treatment on this subject is the book called Raja-nighantu.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhela, Jatukarna, Parasara, Kharapani and Harita wrote medical books.&lt;br /&gt;
Agnivesha’s “Nidanajnana”, a treatise on diagnosis, is still admired.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harita Samhita is a standard book. This was dictated by Atreya in reply to Harita’s questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Glory of Ayurveda&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Ayurvedic system has been demonstrated in recent years to be as effective against malaria as Allopathic treatment. In Rheumatism Ayurvedic medicines are able to produce a greater alleviating and curative effect than other systems.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The best febrifuges have been learnt by British physicians from the Hindus. When patients deafened and swollen by abuse of Quinine were slowly dying of fever under the treatment of enlightened physicians, the bark of the Margosa (Neem tree) and Chiretta herb have cured them completely. These now occupy an honourable place among European drugs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To the ascetic Gymnosophists of ancient India, no secret power of either plant or mineral was unknown. They possess the greatest secrets in medicinal knowledge and unsurpassed skill in its practice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No country in the world can boast of more medicinal plants than India, Burma, Siam and Sri Lanka. India’s wealth of medicinal plants is unsurpassed. The literature of indigenous medicine ascribes medicinal properties to more than 2000 plants. Medicinal herbs are mentioned in the Rig-Veda. Ayurveda treats of herbal remedies in detail on which the ancient medical science largely rested.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is an entire Upanishad on the internal parts of the human body with an enumeration of the nerves, veins, arteries, a description of the heart, spleen and liver and various disquisitions on the formation and growth of the foetus.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Rig-Veda (I, 116, 15-16) speaks of an artificial limb of iron as having been given to a woman whose foot had been cut off so that she might walk. The giving of artificial eyes is also mentioned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jivaka, the personal physician of Buddha, is said to have practised cranial surgery, with success. The Hindus were the first to do skin-grafting and plastic surgery, cataract operation, amputation, the caesarean operation, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhoja Prabandha describes a cranial operation performed in 927 A.D. on King Bhoja of Dhar. Two surgeons made the king insensible by a drug called Sammohini, trephined the skull, removed a growth from the brain, closed the opening and stitched the wound and restored the patient to consciousness by another drug.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both Charaka and Sushruta mention the ancient use of anaesthetics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charaka dealt with diet, antidotes for poisons, syringes, emetic, purgatives and drugs for the cure of diseases. Sushruta was the greatest surgeon of his time. He practised Aseptic surgery.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vedic literature abounds in references to surgical instruments, such as scalpels, lancets, forceps, catheters, saws, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The old Sanskrit and Pali texts give details of various diseases and their remedies—dysentery, jaundice, diabetes, tuberculosis, heart-diseases, etc. They declare that surgery had reached a great degree of skill; and that difficult skull, brain and abdominal operations were successfully performed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Homoeopathist’s Law of similars and contraries can be traced to the ancient Indian classics of Charaka and Sushruta through Egypt, Persia, Arabia, Greece, into medieval Europe and down to modern times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here is a beautiful ideal of Charaka: “Not for self, not for the fulfilment of any earthly desire of gain, but solely for the good of suffering humanity should you treat your patients and so excel all. Those who sell the treatment of disease as merchandise gather the dust and neglect the gold.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda—The Fifth Veda&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda or the Science of life is an Upanga of Atharva-Veda. It consists of 100,000 verses in 1000 chapters. It was composed by Brahma, the Lord, before he created all beings. Ayurveda is really one aspect of the Veda as a whole.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda is the Veda or knowledge of Ayus or life. It has been classified as the Fifth Veda.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda is a distinct Veda. It is even superior to the other Vedas because it gives life which is the basis of all enjoyments, study, meditation and Yoga Sadhana.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The three main branches of Ayurveda deal with the causes, symptoms and treatment of diseases.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Charaka, Sushruta, Vagbhata, Madhava and Sharangadhara were the great Rishis or Fathers of Ayurvedic medicines. They were Yogis. They had great power of observation, generalisation and analysis. Their students made wonderful researches. India’s fertility for medicinal herbs and plants contributed a great deal to the prosecution of their study of medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda serves as the best guide for the healthy and for the sick.&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurvedic medicines are more effective and less costly.&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda treats of eight subjects: Surgery (Salya), treatment of diseases of the head (Shalaka), treatment of ordinary diseases (Kaya-chikitsa), the processes of counteracting the influences of evil spirits (Bhuta-vaidya), treatment of child-diseases (Kaumara-bhritya), antidotes to poisons (Agada tantra), science of rejuvenating body (Rasayana) and the science of acquiring virile strength (Vajikarana).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The principles of Ayurvedic treatment are in the main the same as that of allopathic treatment. They consist of removing the injurious agent, soothing injured body and mind and eradicating the cause. The difference lies in the methods of detail adopted by the different systems. In Ayurveda great importance is given upon the study of the various stages of vitiation of the three Doshas or humours of the body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Dosha Dhatu Mala Moolam hi Sareeram.” The essential constituents of the human body consist of Doshas, Dhatus and Malas. Deha Dhatus mean the supporters of the human body. The three Doshas, the seven Dhatus, the three Malas—these thirteen constitute the human body according to Ayurveda.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
( Note: The three Doshas are: Vatha (wind), Pitta (bile) and Kapha (phlegm) . The seven Dhatus are: Rasa (chyle), Rakta (blood), Mamsa (flesh), Medas (fat), Asthi (bone), Majja (marrow) and Shukla (sperm). The three Malas are: sweat, urine, excreta.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Disease, according to Ayurveda, is generally defined as derangement of the three Doshas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Health is an equilibrium of the three Doshas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Importance of Ayurveda&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda is the science of life. It shows the way to remove diseases, to keep up sound health and attain longevity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This wonderful science cannot be rooted out of India. It is deeply rooted in the hearts of the children of India, the offsprings of Charaka, Sushruta, Madhava, Vagbhata, Sharangadhara and Dhanwantari. Even if all the books on Ayurveda are lost today, it will surely survive.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The efficacy of Ayurvedic medicines prepared strictly in accordance with the methods presented by the Ayurvedic text is very great and their curative powers cannot be in the least doubted or disputed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda was in vogue in India since very early times. The Ayurvedic and Siddha systems have played a very important and vital part in the sphere of public health. Their popularity is due to their availability, cheapness and efficacy, but their thorough knowledge was confined to a few specialists only. There was paucity of standardisation of the drugs and therefore the Ayurvedic system did not keep pace with the Allopathic system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An Ayurvedic physician is very accurate and scientific in determining the causes, symptoms and treatment of diseases. He accurately diagnoses the diseases by feeling the pulse or looking at the eyes and face. He brings about harmony of the three Doshas—Vatha (wind), Pitta (bile) and Kapha (phlegm) by administering the suitable Rasas in correct proportions and combinations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda is based on ten fundamental considerations—&lt;br /&gt;
1. Dusyam (the seven Dhatus and Doshas), 2. Desam (surrounding), 3. Balam (strength), 4. Kalam (season), 5. Analam (fire of digestion, Agni), 6. Prakriti (body), 7. Vayaha (age), 8. Satvam (mental state), 9. Satmyam (compatibility), 10. Aharam (dietary habits).&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda can cure certain diseases for which the Allopathic Pharmacopoeia has no remedy. There are great many indigenous drugs of extreme utility but little known to the students of Allopathy. The Allopaths are just emerging from the slough of empiricism. Many of the empirical methods of treatment adopted by many Ayurvedic physicians are of the greatest value. Whatever the ancient Ayurvedic physicians of yore knew are nowadays being brought to light as new discovery by the Allopaths. If people follow the treatment according to the methods of Charaka, there will be few chronic invalids in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Ayurveda or the Science of Life&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Ayurveda is by itself an almost perfect science treating of Surgery, Medicine, Therapeutics, etc., in as efficient a light as possible. Those antiquated sages and Rishis had been men of miraculous powers. The root-medicines, the medicated leaves with which they cured the disease were all powerful and unique. They were, as it were, God-sent medicines. Dr. Wise remarks, “Asia can munificently give, but it does not need to borrow.” This Ayurvedic system of medicine was promulgated early in the Vedic age. The Hindu Medical system called Ayurveda or the Science of Life is regarded by the Hindus as the fifth Veda. A portion of the Atharvana Veda was devoted to medicine. It is stated that this knowledge of medicine was revealed by Brahma who instructed for the first time the patriarch Daksha. Punarvasu, the son of Atri, Bharadwaja, Indra and the two Aswins practised this system of medicine. A time came for the Rishis and sages to take their long leave and their disciples practised Ayurveda, who in their turn went the way of all flesh and blood and their followers practised it. In course of events, Ayurveda became a monopoly and exclusive right of certain families only and it has become more or less an occult science. There were no well trained masters to give clear instructions, no schools and colleges to receive education and practical training. Selfishness played a most conspicuous part. Self-denial and self-sacrifice were quite novel things.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Controversies and contests arose in the arena of Ayurvedic field. An Ayurvedic father was jealous to make even his son well-versed in Ayurvedic Science. Exclusivism, and not the spirit of inclusivism, aristocracy and not liberalism and plebianism were the most pondering elements. The books written by the Rishis and sages, were in the hands of certain unsympathetic audacious men who cared not the well being of the suffering humanity at large. The books were in their hands, the sole means to acquire wealth. So, in the field of Ayurveda, there were no well-trained sympathetic captains to guide. The Science, the exclusive Science, which the exclusive men hid for themselves and thus prevented its sunshine to glow over far off climes, and which would have become an eternal blessing, sank into partial oblivion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is our sincere and heart-felt longing to see this venerable and ancient system of medicine, the system of our ancestors, sages and Rishis come to the front and occupy the same prominent position, it held in days of yore. It is highly gratifying to note that some generous hearted and liberal minded noble men of the Aryan land are straining their every nerve in the resuscitation of our ancient system of medicine, which, but for their munificence would have been swept away altogether from practice at the present day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda is Scientific&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Western scholars who have studied the Ayurveda are of the opinion that the Hindus developed their Medical science without any extraneous aid. That the Arabs at one time celebrated for their cultivation of Medical Science, had borrowed Medicine from the Hindus, is of course admitted. But whether the Greeks were ever indebted for their medical lore to the people of India, is not so clear. There are scholars whose enthusiasm of Greece is so great that they do not hesitate to advance the extraordinary proposition that except the blind forces of Nature nothing moves in the world that is not Greek in origin. We have nothing to do with scholars that have in even their historical speculations taken leave of sobriety. The accepted opinion is that, as in the case of their Astronomy and philosophy, the Greeks derived considerable help as regards their Medicine also, from their knowledge of India.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Hindu Medical System called Ayurveda or the Science of Life is exceedingly voluminous. It is commonly supposed that a portion of the Atharvana Veda was devoted to Health and Medicine. The Vedas are eternal and the Science of Life therefore, as included in it is also eternal. The other opinion is that the Science of Life was evolved by Brahma, the Grandsire of all the worlds. The Vedas are unquestionably the most ancient books in the world in spite of all the care taken to preserve them in their entirety, there can be no question that in course of many long centuries they have suffered mutilation. The destroying influence of Time is irresistible. No trace accordingly, can be found of the Ayurveda as it formed a part of the Atharvana. The earliest treatises extant on the Science of Life are those of Agnivesa, Bhela, Jatukarana, Parasara, Harita and Kharapani. They were the six disciples of Punarvasu, the son of Atri, who got the science from his preceptor, Bharadwaja, who had again got it from Indra, according to the ancient belief. The chief of the celestials, it is said, had got it, through the Aswins from the Grandsire. Among the works of the six disciples of Punarvasu, that of Agnivesa comes to be better known. It was, some centuries after, revised and arranged by Charaka. Of Charaka the Xarch of the Arabian writers, nothing is known beyond the fact than he was a Rishi who belonged to Panchanada or the country of the Five Waters (Punjab). As a treatise on Hygiene and the treatment of diseases, Charaka’s great work is certainly a very valuable contribution to the Hindu medical literature. The other great medical work of ancient India is Sushruta. It deals largely with Surgery.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Rishis forbade the sale of knowledge. There were, therefore, no public schools or colleges in which students could acquire knowledge of any branch of learning. Hindu physicians, as soon as any of them succeeded in acquiring celebrity, attracted pupils from the surrounding country. They had not only to teach but also to feed the pupils thus attracted towards them. Besides lecturing on the subject, they had to take more advanced ones among their pupils with them in their daily round of practice. For use in the lecture-hall, almost every physician of fame had to compile an abridgment condensing not only the contents of the more famous works known at the time but often supplementing them with the results of his own experience. Some of those abridgments in process of time, became standard works, and were commented upon by succeeding physicians of note.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In this way, a very large and voluminous body of medical literature has grown up in India. If collected with care that literature is capable of fairly filling a large library.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The charge has frequently been preferred against Hindu Medicine that instead of being scientific, it is purely empirical. No charge could be more absurd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The charge proceeds from erroneous conviction that as a system of Therapeutics, Hindu medicine is inferior to the Western system of diagnosis and treatment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Depending largely as Hindu medicine does on herbs and plants, the medical treatises of India contain the most elaborate instructions regarding the methods or manner of gathering these. Annual plants are to be collected before the ripening of their seeds, biennials in the spring, and perennials in autumn; twigs are to be of present year’s growth; roots are to be taken up in winter; leaves in the hot season; and the barks and pith in the rainy season. Minute descriptions occur regarding the manner also of preparing medicines. Not less than six and twenty forms of medicines are mentioned, such as powders, extracts, boluses, decoctions, and infusions in water and milk and ghee, syrups, expressions, distillation, fermentation, medicated oils, etc. The very fuel that is to be used in view of particular preparations, has been described.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It goes without saying that as Botany was never cultivated by the Hindu physicians on a scientific basis, the difficulty experienced in the identification of herbs and plants is often very great. Fortunately, the profession of medicine in India, like most other professions, has been hereditary. This has ensured the descent of knowledge from generation to generation. The son, discerning an aptitude for the profession of the sire, acts as his sire’s assistant from his earliest years. This circumstance enables him to acquire a full knowledge not only of the medicinal herbs and plants mentioned in the Hindu medical treatises, but also of the processes of preparing every medicine with care. By the time, therefore, he begins to practise as a physician, after, of course, having completely mastered the principles of Science by a thorough study of the standard works, his proficiency as an apothecary becomes unquestionable. The instructions laid down in medical treatises for the preparation of medicines are not, in every case, complete. Even when complete, mere theoretical knowledge can never go far. No man can become a good cook by only reading even the most excellent treatises on cookery. Without practice, such knowledge cannot be much useful. The hereditary character of the medical profession, therefore, in India, and the circumstance of the younger members of the family being the helpmates of the practicing physician in the subsidiary branches of his science and art, always ensure a high degree of skill, both in treatment and the apothecary’s art in every physician.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Renaissance of Ayurveda&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda is an exact science. It is the Indian medical science practised by ancient Rishis and seers of India. It is a portion of the Vedas. It is a very effective system of treatment of diseases. It had long period of development in its various branches including surgery. It was very much advanced in ancient India.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurveda has a significant name. It is the knowledge of the science which ensures health and longevity. It is in no way inferior to other systems. The Ayurvedic doctors had very great influence in the field of medicine. Charaka, Sushruta, Vagbhata, Madhava Nidhan are the well-known scientific books on Indian Medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Allopathic doctors are perhaps intolerant towards Ayurveda. They have not understood and recognised the value and importance of the Indian System of Medicine. If they combine Allopathy and Ayurveda, they will be more useful to the suffering humanity and will do wonders in the field of Medicine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Ayurvedic system, on the other hand, laid the foundation to Allopathy. It has been proved beyond a shadow of doubt that the system of Ayurveda travelled from India to Egypt, Arabia, Rome and other places.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This glorious system of medicine fell into disuse owing to lack of State support and facilities for proper study, training and research.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rasayana treatment which confers Kaya Kalpa (rejuvenation of body) comes under Ayurveda.&lt;br /&gt;
Nadi-pariksha or examination of the condition of the patient through feeling the pulse is a noteworthy feature in this system of treatment. No other system in the world has this feature. An Ayurvedic doctor or Vaidya feels the pulse of the patient and diagnoses the disease at once. He gives a vivid description of the state of the patient. Allopathy speaks of volume, tension, etc., of the pulse. The allopathic doctor says only “The pulse is wiry, small, feeble, etc.,” but the Ayurvedic doctor dives deep and speaks volumes on the subject.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Herbs and Bhasmas (metallic oxides) play a prominent part in this system. Herbs and oxides possess infinite potencies or Saktis. A small herb dissolves stones in the bladder, kidneys and gall-bladder in a minute or the twinkling of an eye.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He various potent Ayurvedic preparations are Asavas (infusions), Arishtas (decoctions), Tailas (various medicated oils), double Kashayams or Kvathas, Churna (powder), Lepa (ointment), Gutika or Gulikai (pills), Ghritams (medicated ghees), Bhasmas or metallic oxides, Sindoor (oxides), Rasa, Rasayanas, Lehyam (confections), Dravakam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The preventive aspects of the Ayurveda have been incorporated in the religious and social observances of the Hindus. If they are prescribed in a modern way, rationally, in terms of modern science, they will appeal nicely to the people. They will take them with a pleasant frame of mind as prescriptions for the maintenance of good health and proper hygienic conditions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ayurvedic system is still alive even after centuries of vicissitudes and non-recognition by the State. This points out definitely that the system has a vigour, vitality and power. It has a natural deep root in India. It can never die or become extinct.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
India or Bharatavarsha is rich in medical plants and herbs. In the Gandhamadana hills of the Himalayas and in the vicinity of Nahang near Simla, rare medical herbs are found in abundance. All these herbs can be utilised to great advantage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Intense research in the Ayurveda is a need of the hour. Treasures lie hidden in Indian herbs and medicinal plants. They must be brought to light. Then the whole world will be immensely benefited.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Look at the marvels of Ayurveda!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhasmas even in the smallest quantity work wonders and cure incurable diseases.&lt;br /&gt;
Kaya Kalpa is another marvel of Ayurvedic science.&lt;br /&gt;
Nadi Vijnana is a third wonder.&lt;br /&gt;
Diagnosis of diseases through facial and eye expressions, odours, sounds, etc., is astounding. Finding of incurability or otherwise of diseases through Til oil examination is also wonderful.&lt;br /&gt;
Doctrines of Tridoshas, Mahabhutas, Rasa, Vipaka, Veerya, Prabhava, etc., are thought provoking.&lt;br /&gt;
The Ayurvedic system is still alive after centuries of vicissitudes. Even now there are institutions, doing wonderful work; this clearly indicates that it has a vitality and natural root in India. All that is required is proper encouragement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What is necessary for the growth of Ayurveda at the present moment is standardisation of quality, methods of administration, ways of manufacturing and the degree of potency.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wake up now at least. Open your eyes. The wealth of India is being drained by the import of sulphonamides, Iodides, tinctures, etc. Tap the inexhaustible herbal wealth of the Himalayas. Make your own Asavas, Arishtas, Avalehas and Ghritas. Enrich India and bring good health to the people. This is your very onerous duty. Kindly fulfil it now. Please discharge your duties well, and obtain the grace of the Lord. Here is a great field for your selfless service, purification of heart and salvation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Glory to Ayurveda, the fifth Veda! Glory to Ayurvedic Rishis, Charaka, Sushruta, Vagbhata and Madhava!&lt;br /&gt;
Glory to righteous and self-sacrificing Ayurvedic physicians! Glory, Glory! All glory to Dhanvantari Bhagavan, the Lord, the original father and supporter of the Ayurvedic medicine!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said:&lt;br /&gt;
I desire to know sev’rally,&lt;br /&gt;
O mighty-armed one, the truth of &lt;br /&gt;
Sannyasa,1 O Hrishikesha,&lt;br /&gt;
As also of tyaga,2 Krishna. (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said:&lt;br /&gt;
Renouncing desire-based actions&lt;br /&gt;
Sages consider sannyasa: &lt;br /&gt;
Abandonment of all works’ fruits&lt;br /&gt;
The wise declare to be tyaga. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some say action should be renounced&lt;br /&gt;
As an evil, while others say &lt;br /&gt;
That sacrifice, austerity,&lt;br /&gt;
And gift should not be relinquished. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hear the conclusion regarding&lt;br /&gt;
Tyaga, O best of Bharatas.&lt;br /&gt;
Tyaga has been declared to be&lt;br /&gt;
Of three kinds, O Tiger of Men. (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sacrifice, gift, austerity–&lt;br /&gt;
Should not be relinquished, but done; &lt;br /&gt;
Sacrifice, gift, austerity&lt;br /&gt;
Are purifying to the wise. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But even these works, Arjuna,&lt;br /&gt;
Should still be performed, though leaving &lt;br /&gt;
Attachment and the fruits; such is&lt;br /&gt;
My best and certain conviction. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But the renunciation of&lt;br /&gt;
Required action is not proper. &lt;br /&gt;
Abandonment from delusion&lt;br /&gt;
Is declared to be tamasic. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The relinquishment of action&lt;br /&gt;
From fear of trouble or of pain, &lt;br /&gt;
Is rajasic relinquishment,&lt;br /&gt;
Producing not the fruit thereof. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When work is done only because&lt;br /&gt;
It should be done, leaving aside &lt;br /&gt;
Attachment and the fruit as well,&lt;br /&gt;
That relinquishment is sattwic. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Relinquishers of sattwic kind,&lt;br /&gt;
Steadfast, with doubts dispelled, hate not&lt;br /&gt;
Uncongenial work, nor are they&lt;br /&gt;
Attached to the congenial work. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Actions cannot be entirely&lt;br /&gt;
Relinquished by the embodied,&lt;br /&gt;
But the relinquishing of fruits&lt;br /&gt;
Of action is relinquishment. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The threefold fruit of all action–&lt;br /&gt;
Uncongenial, congenial, mixed–&lt;br /&gt;
Accrues to non-relinquishers,&lt;br /&gt;
But not to the relinquishers. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Learn from Me these five causes for&lt;br /&gt;
The accomplishment of all works &lt;br /&gt;
As are declared in the Sankhya&lt;br /&gt;
Which is the end of all action: (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The body, agent, the senses,&lt;br /&gt;
The functions of manifold kind,&lt;br /&gt;
The presiding divinity,&lt;br /&gt;
And that which is also the fifth. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whate’er action a man performs&lt;br /&gt;
By his body, speech, and the mind– &lt;br /&gt;
Whether right or just the reverse–&lt;br /&gt;
These five alone are its causes. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who through a non-purified&lt;br /&gt;
Understanding looks on his Self, &lt;br /&gt;
The Absolute, as the agent–&lt;br /&gt;
He of distorted mind sees not. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who is free from egoism,&lt;br /&gt;
With intelligence untainted, &lt;br /&gt;
Although he kills all these people,&lt;br /&gt;
He kills not, neither is he bound. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Knowledge, the known, and the knower&lt;br /&gt;
Form the threefold cause of action. &lt;br /&gt;
The instrument, purpose, agent&lt;br /&gt;
Are the threefold base of action. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Knowledge, action, and agent are&lt;br /&gt;
Declared by Sankhya to be of &lt;br /&gt;
Three kinds, from the distinction of&lt;br /&gt;
Gunas: hear them also duly. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That by which in all is seen the&lt;br /&gt;
One Indestructible Substance&lt;br /&gt;
Inseparate in the sep’rate–&lt;br /&gt;
Know that knowledge to be sattwic. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But that by which in all are seen&lt;br /&gt;
Many beings of many kinds &lt;br /&gt;
As diff’rent from one another,&lt;br /&gt;
Know that knowledge as rajasic. (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Confined to a single effect&lt;br /&gt;
As the whole, and without reason &lt;br /&gt;
Or basis in truth, trivial–&lt;br /&gt;
Know that knowledge as tamasic. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Action without love or hatred&lt;br /&gt;
And without desire for the fruit,&lt;br /&gt;
And free from any attachment&lt;br /&gt;
Know that action is called sattwic. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Action done desiring desires,&lt;br /&gt;
With self-conceit and much effort,&lt;br /&gt;
O Dhananjaya, know as truth:&lt;br /&gt;
That action is called rajasic. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Action that’s done through delusion,&lt;br /&gt;
Without heed to the consequence, &lt;br /&gt;
Loss, damage, or ability:&lt;br /&gt;
Know that action as tamasic. (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An agent free from attachment,&lt;br /&gt;
Humble, endued with courage and &lt;br /&gt;
Ardor, and unaffected in&lt;br /&gt;
Success or failure, is sattwic. (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One passionate, desirous of&lt;br /&gt;
Action’s fruits, greedy, malignant,&lt;br /&gt;
Impure, easily elated&lt;br /&gt;
Or dejected, is rajasic. (27)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unsteady, vulgar, obstinate,&lt;br /&gt;
Wicked, dishonest, indolent, &lt;br /&gt;
Despondent, procrastinating–&lt;br /&gt;
Such an agent is tamasic. (28)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now hear the triple distinction&lt;br /&gt;
Of intellect and fortitude, &lt;br /&gt;
According to the three gunas&lt;br /&gt;
Exhaustively and severally. (29)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That intellect which knows the paths&lt;br /&gt;
Of work and renunciation, &lt;br /&gt;
Right and wrong acts, fear, fearlessness,&lt;br /&gt;
Bondage and freedom, is sattwic. (30)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That intellect of mistaken&lt;br /&gt;
Apprehension of dharma and &lt;br /&gt;
Adharma, of right and wrong acts,&lt;br /&gt;
That intellect is rajasic. (31)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That intellect enveloped in&lt;br /&gt;
Darkness, regarding adharma As&lt;br /&gt;
dharma, and seeing all things&lt;br /&gt;
Distortedly, is tamasic. (32)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fortitude by which the functions&lt;br /&gt;
Of the mind, prana, and senses &lt;br /&gt;
Are regulated, unswerving&lt;br /&gt;
By means of yoga is sattwic. (33)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That by which one regulates the&lt;br /&gt;
Mind to dharma, desire, and wealth,&lt;br /&gt;
From attachment to all their fruits,&lt;br /&gt;
That fortitude is rajasic. (34)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That by which the stupid does not&lt;br /&gt;
Give up sleep, fear, despondency, &lt;br /&gt;
Grief, and overweening conceit,&lt;br /&gt;
That fortitude is tamasic. (35)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now hear from Me of the threefold&lt;br /&gt;
Happiness whose enjoyment is &lt;br /&gt;
Learned by practice, and by which one&lt;br /&gt;
Attains unto the end of pain. (36)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That which is like poison at first,&lt;br /&gt;
But like amrita at the end;&lt;br /&gt;
Born of self-realization’s light–&lt;br /&gt;
That happiness is called sattwic. (37)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That arising from the contact&lt;br /&gt;
Of object with sense–at first like&lt;br /&gt;
Amrit’ but like poison at last–&lt;br /&gt;
That happiness is rajasic. (38)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That which begins and results in&lt;br /&gt;
Self-delusion arising from &lt;br /&gt;
Sleep, sloth, and miscomprehension,&lt;br /&gt;
That is declared as tamasic. (39)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is no entity on earth,&lt;br /&gt;
Or in heaven among the gods, &lt;br /&gt;
Found devoid of these three gunas,&lt;br /&gt;
Born of Prakriti, Arjuna. (40)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of Brahmins and Kshatriyas and&lt;br /&gt;
Vaishyas, as also of Shudras, &lt;br /&gt;
The duties are distributed&lt;br /&gt;
According to guna-nature. (41)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Calmness, restraint, austerity&lt;br /&gt;
Purity, patience, uprightness,&lt;br /&gt;
Knowledge, discernment, piety–&lt;br /&gt;
These are the duties of Brahmins. (42)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Valor, splendor, courage, and skill,&lt;br /&gt;
Also not fleeing from battle,&lt;br /&gt;
Generosity, sovereignty–&lt;br /&gt;
These are duties of Kshatriyas. (43)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Agriculture, husbandry, trade,&lt;br /&gt;
Are the duties of the Vaishyas, &lt;br /&gt;
And Shudras’ duty is service–&lt;br /&gt;
Arising from innate nature. (44)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Devoted to his own duty,&lt;br /&gt;
Man attains highest perfection.&lt;br /&gt;
How by his duty he attains&lt;br /&gt;
Perfection, that now hear from Me. (45)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From Whom all beings do come forth,&lt;br /&gt;
By Whom all this is pervaded,&lt;br /&gt;
Worshipping Him with his duty,&lt;br /&gt;
A man attains to perfection. (46)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One’s own dharma, though imperfect,&lt;br /&gt;
Is better than another’s though&lt;br /&gt;
Done to perfection. The duty&lt;br /&gt;
Of one’s own nature brings no ill. (47)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The duty to which one is born&lt;br /&gt;
Should not be relinquished, although &lt;br /&gt;
Faulty, for as the fire by smoke&lt;br /&gt;
So defect envelops all deeds. (48)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He whose mind is ever detached,&lt;br /&gt;
With subdued heart, without desires, &lt;br /&gt;
Attains by renunciation&lt;br /&gt;
To perfect freedom from action. (49)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna, learn from Me in brief&lt;br /&gt;
How, having reached such perfection,&lt;br /&gt;
He attains Brahman, that supreme&lt;br /&gt;
Consummation of all knowledge. (50)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Endued with a pure intellect;&lt;br /&gt;
Subduing body and senses, &lt;br /&gt;
Relinquishing the sense-objects;&lt;br /&gt;
Leaving attraction and hatred. (51)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwelling in a secluded place;&lt;br /&gt;
With body, speech, and mind controlled;&lt;br /&gt;
Abstemious, e’er engaged in&lt;br /&gt;
Meditation; dispassionate; (52)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Forsaking ego, power, pride,&lt;br /&gt;
Lust, wrath, possessiveness; freed from&lt;br /&gt;
The notion of “mine;” and tranquil–&lt;br /&gt;
He’s fit for union with Brahman. (53)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One with Brahman, tranquil-minded,&lt;br /&gt;
Neither grieving nor desiring; &lt;br /&gt;
The same to all, he thus attains&lt;br /&gt;
Supreme devotion unto Me. (54)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Devoted, he knows Me in truth,&lt;br /&gt;
What and Who I am; then having&lt;br /&gt;
Known Me in My reality,&lt;br /&gt;
He forthwith enters into Me. (55)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though doing all actions always,&lt;br /&gt;
Always taking refuge in Me, &lt;br /&gt;
By My grace he attains to the&lt;br /&gt;
Eternal, immutable State. (56)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Resigning mentally all deeds&lt;br /&gt;
To Me, as to the highest goal, &lt;br /&gt;
Resorting to buddhi-yoga,&lt;br /&gt;
Thus ever fix your mind on Me. (57)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With mind fixed on Me, you shall by&lt;br /&gt;
My grace surmount all obstacles;&lt;br /&gt;
But if from self-conceit you will&lt;br /&gt;
Not hear Me, then you shall perish. (58)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If, filled with pride and self-conceit,&lt;br /&gt;
You wrongly think: “I will not fight,”&lt;br /&gt;
In vain shall be this your resolve,&lt;br /&gt;
For your nature will compel you. (59)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fettered by your karma born of&lt;br /&gt;
Your nature, what you, deluded,&lt;br /&gt;
Desire not to do, you shall have&lt;br /&gt;
To do–though in spite of yourself. (60)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
O Arjuna, the Lord dwells in&lt;br /&gt;
The hearts of all beings, causing&lt;br /&gt;
Them by His Maya to revolve&lt;br /&gt;
As if mounted on a machine. (61)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
O Bharata, with all your heart&lt;br /&gt;
Take refuge in Him; and you shall&lt;br /&gt;
Surely attain unto supreme&lt;br /&gt;
Peace and the eternal abode. (62)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus has wisdom, more secret than&lt;br /&gt;
All other secrets, been declared&lt;br /&gt;
To you by Me; now reflect on&lt;br /&gt;
It fully, then do as you please. (63)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now hear again My supreme word,&lt;br /&gt;
Most secret of all, because you&lt;br /&gt;
Are dearly beloved of Me;&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore I shall speak for your good. (64)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fill your mind with Me, devoted,&lt;br /&gt;
Sacrifice and bow down to Me.&lt;br /&gt;
You shall reach Me, for truly I&lt;br /&gt;
Promise you–you are dear to Me. (65)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Relinquishing all dharmas, you&lt;br /&gt;
Should take refuge in Me alone;&lt;br /&gt;
Then I shall fully liberate&lt;br /&gt;
You from all sins; wherefore grieve not. (66)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Never speak this to one without&lt;br /&gt;
Austerities or devotion, &lt;br /&gt;
Or one who renders not service,&lt;br /&gt;
Or to one who cavils at Me.3 (67)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who with supreme devotion&lt;br /&gt;
To Me teaches this most supreme &lt;br /&gt;
Secret unto My devotees&lt;br /&gt;
Shall doubtless come to Me alone. (68)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nor among men is there any&lt;br /&gt;
Who does dearer service to Me,&lt;br /&gt;
Nor shall there be another on&lt;br /&gt;
The earth dearer to Me than he. (69)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And he who studies this sacred&lt;br /&gt;
Dialogue of ours, shall worship &lt;br /&gt;
Me by knowledge’s sacrifice;&lt;br /&gt;
This is My certain conviction. (70)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And even that man who hears this,&lt;br /&gt;
Full of faith and free from scoffing,&lt;br /&gt;
He, liberated, shall attain&lt;br /&gt;
The happy worlds of the righteous. (71)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Has this been heard, O Pritha’s son,&lt;br /&gt;
By you with a one-pointed mind?&lt;br /&gt;
Moreover, has the delusion&lt;br /&gt;
Of your ignorance been destroyed? (72)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: &lt;br /&gt;
Yea, destroyed is my delusion,&lt;br /&gt;
And I have gained my memory&lt;br /&gt;
Through Your grace, and my doubts are gone.&lt;br /&gt;
I am firm; I will do Your word. (73)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sanjaya said: &lt;br /&gt;
Thus have I heard this wonderful&lt;br /&gt;
Dialogue of Vasudeva &lt;br /&gt;
And the high-souled son of Pritha,&lt;br /&gt;
Causing my hair to stand on end. (74)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By grace of Vyasa have I heard&lt;br /&gt;
This supreme, most secret yoga, &lt;br /&gt;
Direct from Krishna, Yoga’s Lord,&lt;br /&gt;
Himself the one declaring it. (75)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I recall again and again&lt;br /&gt;
This wondrous, holy dialogue &lt;br /&gt;
Between Krishna and Arjuna&lt;br /&gt;
And rejoice again and again. (76)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I recall and recall that&lt;br /&gt;
Most wonderful form of Hari, &lt;br /&gt;
Great is my wonder, O King, and&lt;br /&gt;
I rejoice again and again. (77)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Where’er is Krishna, Yoga’s Lord,&lt;br /&gt;
Where’er is Arjuna, there are &lt;br /&gt;
Splendor, victory, wealth, and right&lt;br /&gt;
Order: such is my conviction. (78)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.atmajyoti.org/images/krishna_chariot.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="349" width="281" src="http://www.atmajyoti.org/images/krishna_chariot.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Om Tat Sat&lt;br /&gt;
Thus in the Upanishads of the glorious Bhagavad Gita, the science of the Eternal, the scripture of Yoga, the dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjuna, ends the eighteenth discourse entitled: The Yoga of Liberation by Renunciation.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
                           The Yoga of the Division of Threefold Faith&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: &lt;br /&gt;
Those who set aside prescriptions&lt;br /&gt;
Of scriptures, doing sacrifice &lt;br /&gt;
With faith, what is their condition:&lt;br /&gt;
Sattwa, or rajas, or tamas? (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said:&lt;br /&gt;
Threefold is the embodieds’ faith&lt;br /&gt;
Inherent within their nature– &lt;br /&gt;
The sattwic, rajasic, and the&lt;br /&gt;
Tamasic. Do you hear of it. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each one’s faith is according to&lt;br /&gt;
His natural disposition. &lt;br /&gt;
Yea, the man consists of his faith;&lt;br /&gt;
In truth, he is what his faith is. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The sattwic men worship the gods;&lt;br /&gt;
Rajasic: Yakshas, rakshasas; &lt;br /&gt;
The others–the tamasic men–&lt;br /&gt;
The pretas1 and hosts of bhutas.2 (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those of extreme austerities–&lt;br /&gt;
Unscriptural–given to show &lt;br /&gt;
And egoity, impelled by&lt;br /&gt;
The force of lust and attachment, (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do torture, senseless as they are,&lt;br /&gt;
All the organs in the body, &lt;br /&gt;
And Me, the body’s indweller.&lt;br /&gt;
Know them as of demonic will. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The food also liked by each one&lt;br /&gt;
Is threefold, as is sacrifice,&lt;br /&gt;
Austerity, and almsgiving.&lt;br /&gt;
Hear from Me now their distinction. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Food building life, purity, strength,&lt;br /&gt;
Health, joy, cheerfulness, appetite,&lt;br /&gt;
Savory, agreeable, and&lt;br /&gt;
Substantial–such the sattwic like. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Foods that are bitter, sour, salty,&lt;br /&gt;
Excessively hot, pungent, dry, &lt;br /&gt;
And burning, the rajasic like–&lt;br /&gt;
Producing pain, grief, and disease. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That which is stale, tasteless, stinking,&lt;br /&gt;
Cooked overnight, refuse, impure,&lt;br /&gt;
Is the food the tamasic like.&lt;br /&gt;
This is the truth, O Arjuna. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That sacrifice which is offered&lt;br /&gt;
Without desire for reward and &lt;br /&gt;
According to scriptures’ command,&lt;br /&gt;
Intent, as duty, is sattwic. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That which is performed, Arjuna,&lt;br /&gt;
Seeking for fruit, and for vain show,&lt;br /&gt;
Know that to be a sacrifice&lt;br /&gt;
Rajasic in its character. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sacrifice unscriptural and&lt;br /&gt;
Without the offering of food, &lt;br /&gt;
Without mantras, or gifts,3 or faith,&lt;br /&gt;
Is tamasic in character. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Worship of gods, twice-born, teachers,&lt;br /&gt;
The wise; purity, continence, &lt;br /&gt;
Straightforwardness, non-injury–&lt;br /&gt;
Are austerity of body. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unvexing speech, agreeable,&lt;br /&gt;
True, beneficial, practice of &lt;br /&gt;
Self-study–these are said to form&lt;br /&gt;
What is austerity of speech. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Steady serenity of mind,&lt;br /&gt;
Kindliness, silence, self-control, Honesty of motive–all this&lt;br /&gt;
Is called mental austerity. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This threefold austerity done&lt;br /&gt;
With highest faith by those without&lt;br /&gt;
Desire for fruit, also steadfast&lt;br /&gt;
Is considered to be sattwic. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Austerity practiced to gain&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome,4 honor, worship, and with&lt;br /&gt;
Ostentation, is rajasic,&lt;br /&gt;
Unstable, and transitory. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Austerity with self-torture,&lt;br /&gt;
Done out of a foolish notion, &lt;br /&gt;
Or for the purpose of harming&lt;br /&gt;
Another, is called tamasic. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That gift which is given to one&lt;br /&gt;
Who does no service in return,&lt;br /&gt;
In a fit place, to one worthy–&lt;br /&gt;
That gift is held to be sattwic. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And what is given with a view&lt;br /&gt;
To receiving in return, or &lt;br /&gt;
Looking for the fruit, or again&lt;br /&gt;
Reluctantly, is rajasic. (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The gift given at the wrong place&lt;br /&gt;
Or time, to unworthy persons, &lt;br /&gt;
Without respect or with disdain,&lt;br /&gt;
That is declared as tamasic. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Om, Tat, Sat;” this has been declared&lt;br /&gt;
The triple title of Brahman. &lt;br /&gt;
By That were created of old&lt;br /&gt;
Brahmins, Vedas, and Sacrifice. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sacrifice, gifts, austerities&lt;br /&gt;
According to the scriptures, are&lt;br /&gt;
Begun with utterance of “Om,”&lt;br /&gt;
By the expounders of Brahman. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Uttering “Tat,” without desire&lt;br /&gt;
For fruits–thus are sacrifice, gift, &lt;br /&gt;
And austerity then performed&lt;br /&gt;
By seekers of liberation. (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Sat” is used with the meaning of&lt;br /&gt;
Reality and of goodness; &lt;br /&gt;
So also the word “Sat” is used&lt;br /&gt;
In the sense of auspicious acts. (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Steadfastness in sacrifice, gift,&lt;br /&gt;
And austerity is called “Sat:”5 &lt;br /&gt;
Also action in connection&lt;br /&gt;
With these is designated “Sat.” (27)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whate’er is sacrificed, given,&lt;br /&gt;
Or done, whate’er austerity &lt;br /&gt;
Is practiced without faith, is known&lt;br /&gt;
Here or hereafter as “Asat.”6 (28)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
            &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
                                        Om Tat Sat&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
Courage, purity, firmness in&lt;br /&gt;
Knowledge and yoga, almsgiving, &lt;br /&gt;
Sense-control, sacrifice, study,&lt;br /&gt;
Austerity, and uprightness, (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Harmlessness, absence of anger,&lt;br /&gt;
Truthfulness, renunciation, &lt;br /&gt;
Tranquillity, truth, compassion,&lt;br /&gt;
Uncovetousness, gentleness,1 (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Boldness, forgiveness, fortitude,&lt;br /&gt;
Purity, absence of hatred, &lt;br /&gt;
Absence of pride–all these belong&lt;br /&gt;
To one born for a divine2 state. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Flamboyance, arrogance, anger,&lt;br /&gt;
Self-conceit, harshness, ignorance– &lt;br /&gt;
All these qualities belong to&lt;br /&gt;
One born for a demonic3 state. (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The divine state is deemed to make&lt;br /&gt;
For liberation–for bondage,&lt;br /&gt;
The demonic; but do not grieve:&lt;br /&gt;
You are born for a divine state. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are two types of beings in&lt;br /&gt;
This world: divine and demonic.&lt;br /&gt;
The divine type has been described;&lt;br /&gt;
Now hear of the demonic type. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those of demonic nature know&lt;br /&gt;
Not what to do or refrain from;&lt;br /&gt;
Purity is not found in them,&lt;br /&gt;
Nor is good conduct, nor is truth. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“The universe is without truth,&lt;br /&gt;
Without a basis, without God, &lt;br /&gt;
Produced by mutual union,&lt;br /&gt;
With lust for cause–what else?” say they. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Holding this view, these ruined souls&lt;br /&gt;
Small-minded and of cruel deeds &lt;br /&gt;
Arise as the enemies of&lt;br /&gt;
The world, bent on its destruction. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Filled with insatiable desires,&lt;br /&gt;
Full of hypocrisy, pride, and &lt;br /&gt;
Arrogance, holding evil thoughts&lt;br /&gt;
Through delusion, they foully work. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Beset with immense cares ending&lt;br /&gt;
Only with death, and regarding &lt;br /&gt;
Gratification of lust as&lt;br /&gt;
The highest–feeling it is all; (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bound by a hundred ties of hope,&lt;br /&gt;
Given over to lust and wrath,&lt;br /&gt;
They strive to gain by unjust means&lt;br /&gt;
Wealth for sensual enjoyment. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“This today has been gained by me;&lt;br /&gt;
And this desire I shall obtain; &lt;br /&gt;
All this is mine, and now this wealth&lt;br /&gt;
Also shall be mine in future. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I slew that enemy, and more&lt;br /&gt;
I shall slay. For I am the Lord,&lt;br /&gt;
I enjoy, I am successful,&lt;br /&gt;
Perfect, powerful, and happy. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I am rich and well-born,” they say,&lt;br /&gt;
“Who else is equal unto me?&lt;br /&gt;
I will sacrifice, give, rejoice.”&lt;br /&gt;
Thus deluded by ignorance, (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Led astray by many fancies,&lt;br /&gt;
Covered by delusion’s meshes, &lt;br /&gt;
Addicted to gratifying&lt;br /&gt;
Lust, they fall into a foul hell. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Self-conceited, stubborn, filled with&lt;br /&gt;
The pride and foolishness of wealth, &lt;br /&gt;
They sacrifice in name, for show,&lt;br /&gt;
Contrary to the prescribed forms. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Given over to egoism,&lt;br /&gt;
Power, insolence, lust and wrath, &lt;br /&gt;
These malignant people hate Me&lt;br /&gt;
In both themselves and in others. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These malicious evildoers,&lt;br /&gt;
Cruel, most degraded of men,&lt;br /&gt;
I hurl perpetu’lly into&lt;br /&gt;
Only the wombs of demons here. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Entering the demonic wombs,&lt;br /&gt;
And deluded birth after birth,&lt;br /&gt;
Not attaining to Me, they fall&lt;br /&gt;
Into still lower conditions. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yea, triple is this gate of hell,&lt;br /&gt;
That is destructive of the self– &lt;br /&gt;
Lust, anger, and greed; therefore one&lt;br /&gt;
Should forsake ev’ry one of these. (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The man who has got beyond these&lt;br /&gt;
Three gates of darkness, Arjuna, &lt;br /&gt;
Practices what is good for him,&lt;br /&gt;
And thus goes to the Goal Supreme. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who sets aside the counsels&lt;br /&gt;
Of scriptures from desire’s impulse, &lt;br /&gt;
Attains not unto perfection,&lt;br /&gt;
Nor happiness, nor Goal Supreme. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The scriptures should be your guide in&lt;br /&gt;
What should be done and what should not.&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing what the scriptures prescribe,&lt;br /&gt;
You should act here within the world. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
There is th’ eternal Ashwattha&lt;br /&gt;
With roots above, branches below, &lt;br /&gt;
The sacred hymns, the leaves; he who&lt;br /&gt;
Knows it, is a Veda-knower. (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Below, above, spread its branches,&lt;br /&gt;
Nourished by the gunas; its buds &lt;br /&gt;
Are sense-objects; and in the world&lt;br /&gt;
Below its roots give rise to acts. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This its form is not here perceived–&lt;br /&gt;
Its end, origin, existence. &lt;br /&gt;
Having cut this firm-rooted tree&lt;br /&gt;
With the axe of non-attachment– (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then that goal is to be sought for,&lt;br /&gt;
Which, attained, they never return: &lt;br /&gt;
“In that Primeval Purusha,&lt;br /&gt;
Fount of actions, I seek refuge.” (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Without pride, delusion–attachment conquered–&lt;br /&gt;
Dwelling in the Supreme Self, without desires, &lt;br /&gt;
Freed from the dualities–pleasure and pain–&lt;br /&gt;
The undeluded reach that eternal Goal. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That the sun illuminates not,&lt;br /&gt;
There shines neither the moon nor fire; &lt;br /&gt;
For that is My Supreme Abode,&lt;br /&gt;
Going whither they return not. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An eternal part of Myself,&lt;br /&gt;
Becoming a soul in this world, &lt;br /&gt;
Takes on the senses and the mind&lt;br /&gt;
And abides within Prakriti. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the Lord obtains a body&lt;br /&gt;
And when He leaves it, He takes these &lt;br /&gt;
And goes, as the wind takes the scents&lt;br /&gt;
From their seats: the flowers and herbs. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus presiding over the ear,&lt;br /&gt;
The eye, the touch, the taste, the smell– &lt;br /&gt;
As also the “sense” of the mind–&lt;br /&gt;
He experiences objects. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When He departs, remains, enjoys,&lt;br /&gt;
Accompanied by the gunas, &lt;br /&gt;
The deluded do not see Him–&lt;br /&gt;
Those with the eye of knowledge see. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The yogis, striving, behold Him&lt;br /&gt;
Dwelling within themselves; but the &lt;br /&gt;
Unrefined, unintelligent,&lt;br /&gt;
Even though striving, see Him not. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The light which resides in the sun,&lt;br /&gt;
That light illumines the whole world; &lt;br /&gt;
That which is in the moon and fire–&lt;br /&gt;
Know that light to be Mine as well. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Entering the earth, I support&lt;br /&gt;
All beings with My energy. &lt;br /&gt;
Having become the wat’ry moon,&lt;br /&gt;
I Myself cause all plants to thrive. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dwelling within living beings&lt;br /&gt;
In the form of digestive fire, &lt;br /&gt;
Joined with prana and apana,&lt;br /&gt;
Do I digest the fourfold food. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am seated within all hearts;&lt;br /&gt;
Memory, knowledge, and their loss &lt;br /&gt;
Proceed from Me: for I am the&lt;br /&gt;
Veda’s Goal, Author, and Knower. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Two Purushas are in this world–&lt;br /&gt;
The Changing and the Unchanging. &lt;br /&gt;
All beings comprise the Changing,&lt;br /&gt;
Kutastha is the Unchanging. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But there is also the Supreme&lt;br /&gt;
Purusha, called the Highest Self, &lt;br /&gt;
Immutable Lord, Who pervades&lt;br /&gt;
All the three worlds and sustains them. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I transcend the Changing and am&lt;br /&gt;
Above even the Unchanging, &lt;br /&gt;
So in this world and the Veda&lt;br /&gt;
I am called the Supreme Spirit.1 (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who, free from delusion, thus&lt;br /&gt;
Knows Me as the Supreme Spirit, &lt;br /&gt;
He, knowing all, thus worships Me&lt;br /&gt;
With all his heart, O Bharata. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing this most secret teaching&lt;br /&gt;
Imparted by Me, one awakes &lt;br /&gt;
To the highest enlightenment–&lt;br /&gt;
All his duties thus accomplished. (20)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said:&lt;br /&gt;
I shall tell you supreme knowledge&lt;br /&gt;
Which is the best of all knowledge, &lt;br /&gt;
Having known which all the sages&lt;br /&gt;
Attained to highest perfection. (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Resorting to this knowledge they&lt;br /&gt;
Attain identity with Me, &lt;br /&gt;
At creation they are not born,&lt;br /&gt;
Nor tremble at its dissolving.1 (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For me great Brahma is the womb,&lt;br /&gt;
And in that do I place the egg. &lt;br /&gt;
The origin of all beings&lt;br /&gt;
Then comes from that, O Bharata. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whatever be the forms produced&lt;br /&gt;
Within all wombs, Son of Kunti, &lt;br /&gt;
Of them Brahma is the great womb,&lt;br /&gt;
And I the seed-casting Father. (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sattwa, rajas, and tamas–these&lt;br /&gt;
Gunas born of Prakriti bind &lt;br /&gt;
Fast in the body him who is&lt;br /&gt;
Indestructible, embodied. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sattwa is stainless, luminous,&lt;br /&gt;
And free from defect, yet it binds &lt;br /&gt;
By attachment to happiness&lt;br /&gt;
And by attachment to knowledge. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Know rajas’ nature is passion,&lt;br /&gt;
Producing thirst and attachment; &lt;br /&gt;
It binds fast the embodied one&lt;br /&gt;
By the attachment to action. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tamas is born of ignorance,&lt;br /&gt;
Stupefying the embodied; &lt;br /&gt;
It binds by miscomprehension,&lt;br /&gt;
Indolence, and sleep, Bharata. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sattwa ’ttaches to happiness,&lt;br /&gt;
Rajas to action, Bharata; And &lt;br /&gt;
Tamas, obscuring knowledge,&lt;br /&gt;
Attaches unto delusion. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sattwa prevails over rajas&lt;br /&gt;
And tamas; and rajas prevails &lt;br /&gt;
Over sattwa and tamas; and&lt;br /&gt;
Tamas over sattwa, rajas. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When through each sense of the body&lt;br /&gt;
The light of knowledge clearly shines, &lt;br /&gt;
Then it should be known that sattwa&lt;br /&gt;
Is there fully predominant. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Activity, undertaking&lt;br /&gt;
Of actions, greed, unrest, longing– &lt;br /&gt;
When rajas is predominant&lt;br /&gt;
All these arise, O Bharata. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Darkness, inertness, heedlessness,&lt;br /&gt;
And delusion–all these arise &lt;br /&gt;
When tamas is predominant,&lt;br /&gt;
O descendant of the Kurus. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the embodied one meets death&lt;br /&gt;
When sattwa is predominant, &lt;br /&gt;
Then he attains the stainless realms&lt;br /&gt;
Of the knowers of the Highest. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meeting death in rajas, he’s born&lt;br /&gt;
Amid those attached to action;&lt;br /&gt;
Dying in tamas, he is born&lt;br /&gt;
From the wombs of the deluded. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fruit of good action, they say,&lt;br /&gt;
Is sattwic and pure; verily,&lt;br /&gt;
The fruit of rajas is pain, and&lt;br /&gt;
Ignorance the fruit of tamas. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From sattwa arises wisdom;&lt;br /&gt;
From rajas, greed; while from tamas &lt;br /&gt;
Arises miscomprehension,&lt;br /&gt;
And delusion and ignorance. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The sattwa ’biding go upwards;&lt;br /&gt;
Rajasics dwell in the middle;&lt;br /&gt;
Tamasics, abiding in the&lt;br /&gt;
Lowest guna, do go downward. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the seer beholds no agent&lt;br /&gt;
Other than the gunas and knows&lt;br /&gt;
That which is higher than gunas,&lt;br /&gt;
He attains unto My being. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who goes beyond these gunas&lt;br /&gt;
Which are the source of the body, &lt;br /&gt;
Is freed from birth, death, disease, pain,&lt;br /&gt;
And attains immortality. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said:&lt;br /&gt;
By what marks, O Lord, is he known&lt;br /&gt;
Who has gone beyond the gunas? &lt;br /&gt;
What is his conduct, and how does&lt;br /&gt;
He pass beyond these three gunas? (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
He who hates not the appearance&lt;br /&gt;
Of light and of activity &lt;br /&gt;
And delusion, O Pandava,&lt;br /&gt;
Nor yet longs for them when absent; (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He, sitting like one unconcerned,&lt;br /&gt;
Who is not moved by the gunas, &lt;br /&gt;
Knowing: “The gunas operate,”&lt;br /&gt;
Stands firm and is unwavering. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The same in pleasure or in pain,&lt;br /&gt;
He sees earth, stone, and gold alike; &lt;br /&gt;
Alike to pleasing, displeasing,&lt;br /&gt;
Firm, the same in censure and praise; (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The same in honor and disgrace,&lt;br /&gt;
The same to friend and enemy,&lt;br /&gt;
Renouncing all undertakings–&lt;br /&gt;
He has gone beyond the gunas. (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who renders service to Me&lt;br /&gt;
With unswerving devotion, he, &lt;br /&gt;
Going beyond the three gunas,&lt;br /&gt;
Is fit for union with Brahman. (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I am the abode of Brahman,&lt;br /&gt;
The Immortal, Immutable, &lt;br /&gt;
Abode of Eternal Dharma,&lt;br /&gt;
Abode of the Absolute Bliss.”2 (27)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: &lt;br /&gt;
Prakriti and Purusha and&lt;br /&gt;
The Field and Knower of the Field, &lt;br /&gt;
Knowledge, and that which should be known–&lt;br /&gt;
I wish to know these, Keshava.1&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said:&lt;br /&gt;
This body is known as the Field,&lt;br /&gt;
And he who knows it thus is called &lt;br /&gt;
The Knower of the Field by those&lt;br /&gt;
Who know of both Field and Knower. (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Know Me also, O Bharata,&lt;br /&gt;
To be the Knower in all Fields.&lt;br /&gt;
The knowledge of Field and Knower&lt;br /&gt;
I consider as the knowledge. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What the Field is–its properties,&lt;br /&gt;
Modifications, cause-effects,&lt;br /&gt;
Who He is and what His powers,&lt;br /&gt;
That do you hear from Me in brief. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This has been sung by the Rishis&lt;br /&gt;
In many ways, in sacred chants,&lt;br /&gt;
In passages about Brahman,&lt;br /&gt;
Full of convincing reasoning. (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The great Elements, Egoism,&lt;br /&gt;
Intellect, the Unmanifest, &lt;br /&gt;
The ten senses2 and the one–mind–&lt;br /&gt;
The five objects of the senses; (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Desire, aversion, pleasure, pain,&lt;br /&gt;
The aggregate, intelligence, &lt;br /&gt;
And steadfastness: thus is the Field&lt;br /&gt;
Briefly described, and its aspects. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Absence of both pride and deceit,&lt;br /&gt;
Harmlessness,3 patience, rectitude, &lt;br /&gt;
Approach of teacher,4 purity,&lt;br /&gt;
Stability and self-restraint. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Indifference to sense objects,&lt;br /&gt;
And absence of egotism;5 &lt;br /&gt;
Keeping in mind the evils of&lt;br /&gt;
Birth, death, old age, disease, and pain; (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Non-attachment and non-clinging&lt;br /&gt;
To son, wife, home, and all suchlike; &lt;br /&gt;
Constant evenmindedness in&lt;br /&gt;
Desired and undesired events. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unswerving devotion to Me&lt;br /&gt;
With single-minded yoga, and &lt;br /&gt;
Frequenting secluded places,&lt;br /&gt;
Distaste for others’ company;6 (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Constant in knowledge of the Self,&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing the goal of truth-knowledge– &lt;br /&gt;
This is said to be true knowledge.&lt;br /&gt;
The contrary is ignorance. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I shall describe what must be known,&lt;br /&gt;
Which bestows immortality–&lt;br /&gt;
Beginningless Supreme Brahman:&lt;br /&gt;
Neither being nor non-being. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With hands and feet everywhere,&lt;br /&gt;
Eyes, heads, and faces ev’rywhere, &lt;br /&gt;
With ears throughout the universe–&lt;br /&gt;
THAT stands, pervading ev’rything. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shining by functions of senses,&lt;br /&gt;
Yet without senses; detached, yet &lt;br /&gt;
Maintaining all; free from gunas,&lt;br /&gt;
Yet experiencing gunas. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outside and inside all beings;&lt;br /&gt;
Both the unmoving and moving;&lt;br /&gt;
Incomprehensible because&lt;br /&gt;
It is subtle and far and near. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Undivided, yet It exists&lt;br /&gt;
As if divided in beings: &lt;br /&gt;
The sustainer of all beings–&lt;br /&gt;
He absorbs and generates them. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Light even of lights, It is&lt;br /&gt;
Said to be beyond all darkness;&lt;br /&gt;
Knowledge, the One Thing to be known,&lt;br /&gt;
Goal of knowledge, within all hearts. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus Field, knowledge and that which must&lt;br /&gt;
Be known has been briefly stated.&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing all this, My devotee&lt;br /&gt;
Attains to My state of being. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Know Prakriti and Purusha&lt;br /&gt;
Are both beginningless; and know &lt;br /&gt;
That all modifications and&lt;br /&gt;
Gunas are born of Prakriti. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In production of the body&lt;br /&gt;
And senses Prakriti’s the cause;&lt;br /&gt;
Pleasure and pain’s experience,&lt;br /&gt;
Originates from Purusha. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Purusha within Prakriti&lt;br /&gt;
Undergoes Prakriti’s gunas; &lt;br /&gt;
Birth in good and evil wombs comes&lt;br /&gt;
From his attachment to gunas. (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Supreme Purusha is called&lt;br /&gt;
The Looker-on in this body:&lt;br /&gt;
The Permitter, the Supporter,&lt;br /&gt;
Experiencer, Lord, and Self. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who thus knows the Purusha&lt;br /&gt;
And Prakriti with the gunas, &lt;br /&gt;
Whatever be his state in life,&lt;br /&gt;
He shall never be born again. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some perceive the Self in the Self&lt;br /&gt;
By the Self through meditation; &lt;br /&gt;
Others by Sankhya yoga, and&lt;br /&gt;
Still others by karma yoga. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Others, again, not knowing thus,&lt;br /&gt;
Worship as they hear from others. &lt;br /&gt;
Even these, too, go beyond death,&lt;br /&gt;
Devoted to what they have heard. (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whate’er is born, the moving or&lt;br /&gt;
The unmoving, O Bharata,&lt;br /&gt;
Know it to be from the union&lt;br /&gt;
Of the Field and the Field-Knower. (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The one who truly sees is he&lt;br /&gt;
Who ever sees the Supreme Lord&lt;br /&gt;
Existing equally in all&lt;br /&gt;
Beings, deathless in the dying. (27)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since seeing the Lord equally&lt;br /&gt;
Existing ev’rywhere in all,&lt;br /&gt;
He injures not the Self by Self,&lt;br /&gt;
Then goes unto the Supreme Goal. (28)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The one who truly sees is he&lt;br /&gt;
Who sees that all actions are done &lt;br /&gt;
Solely by Prakriti alone,&lt;br /&gt;
And that the Self is actionless. (29)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He sees the sep’rate existence&lt;br /&gt;
Of all inherent in the One, &lt;br /&gt;
And their expansion from That One–&lt;br /&gt;
He then becomes one with Brahman. (30)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Being without beginning and&lt;br /&gt;
Devoid of gunas, unchanging, &lt;br /&gt;
This Supreme Self, though embodied,&lt;br /&gt;
Does not act, and is not tainted. (31)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the all-pervading ether,&lt;br /&gt;
Through subtlety is not tainted,&lt;br /&gt;
The Self seated in the body&lt;br /&gt;
Is not tainted in any case. (32)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the sun alone illumines&lt;br /&gt;
This entire world, in the same way &lt;br /&gt;
The lord of the field illumines&lt;br /&gt;
The entire field, O Bharata. (33)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They who with the eye of knowledge&lt;br /&gt;
Distinguish Field, Field-Knower, and &lt;br /&gt;
Freedom from beings’ Prakriti,&lt;br /&gt;
They indeed go to the Supreme. (34)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: &lt;br /&gt;
Those devotees who worship You,&lt;br /&gt;
And those also who do worship &lt;br /&gt;
The Changeless, the Unmanifest–&lt;br /&gt;
Which are better versed in yoga? (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
Those who, fixing their mind on Me,&lt;br /&gt;
Worship steadfast, with supreme faith, &lt;br /&gt;
It is My opinion that they&lt;br /&gt;
Are thus the best versed in yoga. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They worship the Unperishing,&lt;br /&gt;
Unspeakable, Unmanifest,&lt;br /&gt;
Omnipresent, Unthinkable&lt;br /&gt;
Unchangeable, Immovable– (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having subdued all the senses,&lt;br /&gt;
And even-minded ev’rywhere,&lt;br /&gt;
Engaged in the welfare of all–&lt;br /&gt;
Verily they reach Me alone. (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Greater is their trouble whose minds&lt;br /&gt;
Are set on the Unmanifest;&lt;br /&gt;
For the Unmanifest is hard&lt;br /&gt;
For the embodied ones to reach. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who worship Me, resigning&lt;br /&gt;
All action, deeming Me as the&lt;br /&gt;
Supreme Goal, meditating on&lt;br /&gt;
Me with single-minded yoga– (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To these whose mind is set on Me,&lt;br /&gt;
Verily, I become ere long,&lt;br /&gt;
O Pritha’s son, their Savior from&lt;br /&gt;
The sea of mortal samsara. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fixing your mind on Me alone,&lt;br /&gt;
Placing your intellect in Me, &lt;br /&gt;
Then doubtless you shall evermore&lt;br /&gt;
Live in Me, here and hereafter. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you are unable to fix&lt;br /&gt;
Your mind on Me in steadiness, &lt;br /&gt;
By constant practice of yoga&lt;br /&gt;
Seek to reach Me, Dhananjaya. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But if you are unable to&lt;br /&gt;
Constantly practice yoga, be &lt;br /&gt;
Intent on acting for My sake.&lt;br /&gt;
Even that leads to perfection. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you cannot do even this,&lt;br /&gt;
Then by taking refuge in Me, &lt;br /&gt;
Abandon the fruits of action,&lt;br /&gt;
Becoming this way self-controlled. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Better is knowledge than practice;&lt;br /&gt;
Meditation than mere knowledge;&lt;br /&gt;
Renouncement1 than meditation;&lt;br /&gt;
Instant peace comes from renouncement. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He hates no one, and is friendly&lt;br /&gt;
And compassionate towards all, &lt;br /&gt;
Free from feelings of “I” and “mine,”&lt;br /&gt;
Even-minded and forbearing. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Always content, balanced in mind,&lt;br /&gt;
Self-controlled, firm in conviction,&lt;br /&gt;
Mind and intellect fixed on Me,&lt;br /&gt;
Devoted to Me, dear to Me. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who agitates not the world,&lt;br /&gt;
And whom the world agitates not,&lt;br /&gt;
Who is freed from joy, envy, fear,&lt;br /&gt;
And worry–he is dear to Me. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who is free from dependence,&lt;br /&gt;
Pure, skilled, unconcerned, untroubled, &lt;br /&gt;
Renouncing all undertakings–&lt;br /&gt;
That devotee is dear to Me. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He neither rejoices nor hates,&lt;br /&gt;
Nor grieves, nor desires, renouncing &lt;br /&gt;
Both good and evil, and full of&lt;br /&gt;
Devotion–he is dear to Me. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He is the same to friend and foe,&lt;br /&gt;
And in honor and dishonor; &lt;br /&gt;
In heat and cold, pleasure and pain;&lt;br /&gt;
And ever free from attachment. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Who deems blame and praise as equal;&lt;br /&gt;
Silent, content with anything, &lt;br /&gt;
Homeless, steady-minded, full of&lt;br /&gt;
Devotion–he is dear to Me. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They who follow this Immortal&lt;br /&gt;
Dharma, described, endued with faith,&lt;br /&gt;
Deeming Me as the Goal Supreme,&lt;br /&gt;
Devoted–are most dear to me. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: &lt;br /&gt;
In kindness you spoke unto me&lt;br /&gt;
Regarding the Supreme Secret &lt;br /&gt;
That is known as the Supreme Self.&lt;br /&gt;
By this my delusion is gone. (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The origin and dissolving&lt;br /&gt;
Of beings has been heard by me&lt;br /&gt;
In detail from You, O Krishna,&lt;br /&gt;
And Your eternal majesty. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And so it is, O Supreme Lord!&lt;br /&gt;
As You have declared of Yourself. &lt;br /&gt;
Yet still I desire to behold&lt;br /&gt;
Your Ishwara1-Form, O Krishna. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wherefore, O Lord, if You should think&lt;br /&gt;
Me capable of seeing It, &lt;br /&gt;
Then do You, O Lord of Yogis,&lt;br /&gt;
Show to me Your eternal Self. (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
Behold now, O Partha, My forms&lt;br /&gt;
A hundred fold–a thousandfold– &lt;br /&gt;
Various, divine, and also&lt;br /&gt;
Of various colors and shapes. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Behold the Adityas, Vasus,&lt;br /&gt;
The Rudras, Ashwins,2 and Maruts; &lt;br /&gt;
Behold, O son of Bharata,&lt;br /&gt;
Many wonders ne’er seen before. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See now in this My body the&lt;br /&gt;
Whole universe centered in one– &lt;br /&gt;
Both the moving and unmoving–&lt;br /&gt;
And all else you desire to see. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But you are not able to see&lt;br /&gt;
Me with your own eyes, Arjuna. &lt;br /&gt;
I give to you the divine eye–&lt;br /&gt;
Behold My supreme Yoga Pow’r. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sanjaya said: &lt;br /&gt;
Then having thus spoken, O King,&lt;br /&gt;
Krishna, the Great Lord of Yoga, &lt;br /&gt;
Showed unto the son of Pritha&lt;br /&gt;
His own Supreme Ishwara-Form: (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With many mouths and many eyes,&lt;br /&gt;
And with many wondrous aspects, &lt;br /&gt;
With many divine ornaments,&lt;br /&gt;
With many divine weapons raised; (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wearing divine garlands and clothes,&lt;br /&gt;
With divine perfumes and ointments; &lt;br /&gt;
God embodying all wonders,&lt;br /&gt;
The Infinite, Omniscient. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the light of a thousand suns&lt;br /&gt;
Arose together in the sky, &lt;br /&gt;
Then that would be like the splendor&lt;br /&gt;
Of that Resplendent Mighty One. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There in the body of the God&lt;br /&gt;
Of gods the son of Pandu saw &lt;br /&gt;
The universe resting in One&lt;br /&gt;
With its manifold divisions. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then Arjuna, filled with wonder&lt;br /&gt;
And with his hair standing on end, &lt;br /&gt;
Bowing down in adoration&lt;br /&gt;
Thus spoke with joined palms unto Him. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: &lt;br /&gt;
O God, I see all the gods in Your body,&lt;br /&gt;
And the hosts of all grades of beings in You; &lt;br /&gt;
Brahma, the Lord, seated upon the lotus,&lt;br /&gt;
And all the rishis and celestial serpents. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I see You of boundless form on ev’ry side&lt;br /&gt;
With Your manifold arms, stomachs, mouths, and eyes; &lt;br /&gt;
Neither end, middle, nor beginning of You&lt;br /&gt;
Do I see, Lord, of Your Universal Form. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I see You with diadem, club, and discus;&lt;br /&gt;
A mass of radiance shining ev’rywhere, &lt;br /&gt;
Very hard to look at, all around blazing&lt;br /&gt;
Like burning fire and sun, and beyond measure. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are the Unchanging, the Supreme Being,&lt;br /&gt;
You are the ultimate resting-place of all; &lt;br /&gt;
You are Guardian of Eternal Dharma,&lt;br /&gt;
You are the Primal Purusha, I do ween. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are without beginning, middle, or end,&lt;br /&gt;
Infinite in power, of manifold arms; &lt;br /&gt;
The sun and moon Your eyes; burning fire Your mouth;&lt;br /&gt;
Heating the universe with Your radiance. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This firmament fixed between heaven and earth,&lt;br /&gt;
And all the quarters are filled by You alone; &lt;br /&gt;
Seeing this, Your marvellous and awesome form,&lt;br /&gt;
The three worlds tremble with fear, O Great-souled One.20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Truly, into You enter these hosts of gods;&lt;br /&gt;
Some of which extol You in fear with joined palms; &lt;br /&gt;
“May it be well!” thus saying, the bands of great&lt;br /&gt;
Rishis and Siddhas praise You with splendid hymns. (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Rudras, Adityas, Vasus, Sadhyas,3 and&lt;br /&gt;
Vishwa-Devas, Ashwins, Maruts, Ushmapas,4 &lt;br /&gt;
Gandharvas, Yakshas, Asuras, and&lt;br /&gt;
Siddhas–&lt;br /&gt;
All these are looking at You, quite astounded. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having seen this Your immeasurable form–&lt;br /&gt;
With very many mouths, eyes, arms, thighs, and feet, &lt;br /&gt;
Many stomachs, and fearful with many tusks–&lt;br /&gt;
All the worlds are terrified, and so am I. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On seeing You touching the sky, and blazing&lt;br /&gt;
With many a color, with mouths wide open, &lt;br /&gt;
With large and fiery eyes: I am terrified&lt;br /&gt;
At heart, and find no courage nor peace, Vishnu. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having seen Your mouths, fearful with tusks, blazing&lt;br /&gt;
Like Pralaya-fires, I know neither the four &lt;br /&gt;
Quarters, nor do I find peace; have mercy, then,&lt;br /&gt;
O Lord of Gods, Abode of the universe. (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And all these sons of evil Dhritarashtra,&lt;br /&gt;
With the multitudinous hosts of monarchs, &lt;br /&gt;
Among whom are numbered Bishma, Drona, and&lt;br /&gt;
Sutaputra, with the warrior chiefs of ours, (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enter precipitately into Your mouth,&lt;br /&gt;
Terrible with tusks and fearful to behold. &lt;br /&gt;
Some are found sticking in the gaps ’tween Your teeth,&lt;br /&gt;
And some with their heads completely pulverized. (27)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Verily, as the many torrents and streams&lt;br /&gt;
Of all the rivers flow towards the ocean, &lt;br /&gt;
So do all these heroes of the world of men&lt;br /&gt;
Now enter into Your fiercely flaming mouths. (28)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just as moths precipitately rush into&lt;br /&gt;
A blazing fire, although only to perish, &lt;br /&gt;
In like manner so do these creatures also&lt;br /&gt;
Rush into Your mouths though only to perish. (29)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Swallowing all the worlds on every side&lt;br /&gt;
With Your flaming mouths, You are licking Your lips. &lt;br /&gt;
Your fierce rays, filling the world with radiance,&lt;br /&gt;
Are blazing, burning, consuming, O Vishnu! (30)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tell me who You are–You Who are fierce in form.&lt;br /&gt;
Salutations, O Supreme God: have mercy! &lt;br /&gt;
I desire to know You, O Primeval One.&lt;br /&gt;
I know not indeed Your doings or purpose. (31)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said:&lt;br /&gt;
I am, indeed, mighty world-destroying Time,&lt;br /&gt;
Here made manifest for destroying the world. &lt;br /&gt;
Even without you, none of the warriors here&lt;br /&gt;
Arrayed within the hostile armies shall live. (32)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore do you arise and thus acquire fame.&lt;br /&gt;
Conquer, and enjoy unrivalled dominion. &lt;br /&gt;
Truly, by Myself are they already slain;&lt;br /&gt;
Be merely an apparent cause, Arjuna. (33)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Drona, Bhishma, Jayadratha, Karna, and&lt;br /&gt;
Others already killed by Me, do you kill. &lt;br /&gt;
Be not distressed with fear; but fight, and surely&lt;br /&gt;
You shall conquer your enemies in battle. (34)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sanjaya said: &lt;br /&gt;
Having heard this speech of Krishna, Arjuna&lt;br /&gt;
With joined palms, and trembling, prostrated himself, &lt;br /&gt;
And addressed Krishna in a faltering voice,&lt;br /&gt;
Bowing down to Him, and overwhelmed with fear. (35)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said:&lt;br /&gt;
It is fitting, Hrishikesha, that the world&lt;br /&gt;
Is delighted and rejoices in Your praise, &lt;br /&gt;
That rakshasas fly in fear to all quarters,&lt;br /&gt;
And siddhas bow to You in adoration. (36)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Why should they not bow to You, O Great-souled One,&lt;br /&gt;
The Great and Primal Cause of even Brahma, &lt;br /&gt;
Infinite, Lord of gods, Source of the cosmos?&lt;br /&gt;
Unchanging–Being, Non-being, beyond both. (37)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You the Primal God, the Ancient Purusha;&lt;br /&gt;
You are Supreme Refuge of this universe, &lt;br /&gt;
Knower, the One Thing to be known; Supreme Goal;&lt;br /&gt;
By You is the whole universe pervaded. (38)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are Vayu,5 Yama, Agni,6 Varuna,&lt;br /&gt;
Chandra,7 Prajapati, and Great-grandfather.8 &lt;br /&gt;
I bow, yea, I bow to You a thousand times,&lt;br /&gt;
Again and again I bow, I bow to You! (39)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Salutation to You before and behind,&lt;br /&gt;
Salutation on every side, O All! &lt;br /&gt;
You, infinite in power and in prowess,&lt;br /&gt;
Pervadest all these things; wherefore You are All. (40)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whatever I have presumptuously said&lt;br /&gt;
From carelessness or love, addressing You as&lt;br /&gt;
“O Krishna, O Yadava, O Friend,” speaking&lt;br /&gt;
As a friend, unconscious of this Your greatness– (41)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However I may have been disrespectful&lt;br /&gt;
To You in jest, walking, reposing, sitting, &lt;br /&gt;
Eating, alone, with others, I implore You,&lt;br /&gt;
Immeasurable One, to forgive all this. (42)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The world’s Father–of the moving unmoving–&lt;br /&gt;
You are the worshipful Guru of gurus. &lt;br /&gt;
There is no one Your equal in the three worlds.&lt;br /&gt;
Who can excel You, Mighty beyond compare? (43)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Prostrating in adoration, do I crave&lt;br /&gt;
Forgiveness: as a father forgives his son, &lt;br /&gt;
A friend his dear friend, and a lover his love–&lt;br /&gt;
Thus even so should You forgive Me, O God. (44)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Overjoyed am I, seeing Your form, and yet&lt;br /&gt;
My mind is distracted with terror. Show me,&lt;br /&gt;
In mercy Lord, only Your previous form–&lt;br /&gt;
O Lord of gods, Abode of the universe. (45)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Diademed, bearing the mace and the discus,&lt;br /&gt;
I wish to see You as before. Assume then &lt;br /&gt;
That same beloved four-armed form of Yours, O&lt;br /&gt;
You of thousand arms, of universal form. (46)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said:&lt;br /&gt;
Graciously have I shown to you, Arjuna,&lt;br /&gt;
This Form Supreme, by My own Yoga Power–&lt;br /&gt;
Form resplendent, infinite, universal,&lt;br /&gt;
Which has not been seen before by aught but you. (47)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not by Vedic study or by sacrifice,&lt;br /&gt;
By gifts, rites, or by severe austerities &lt;br /&gt;
Am I seen in such Form in the world of men,&lt;br /&gt;
By any other than you, O Arjuna. (48)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Be not afraid or bewildered, having seen&lt;br /&gt;
This Form of Mine, so awesome, so terrible &lt;br /&gt;
With your fears dispelled and with your heart gladdened,&lt;br /&gt;
Now see once again this former Form of Mine. (49)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sanjaya said:&lt;br /&gt;
Krishna, having thus spoken to Arjuna,&lt;br /&gt;
Showed once again His usual manlike form;&lt;br /&gt;
Thus the Great-souled One, assuming His gentle&lt;br /&gt;
Four-armed form pacified him, the terrified. (50)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said:&lt;br /&gt;
Now having seen this, Your gentle&lt;br /&gt;
Man-like form, O Janardana, &lt;br /&gt;
My thoughts are now composed, and I&lt;br /&gt;
Am now restored to my nature. (51)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said:&lt;br /&gt;
Verily, hard indeed it is&lt;br /&gt;
To behold this great form of Mine &lt;br /&gt;
Which you have seen. Even the gods&lt;br /&gt;
Ever long to behold this form. (52)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not by Vedic study, nor by&lt;br /&gt;
Austerity, nor by gifts, nor &lt;br /&gt;
By sacrifice can I be seen&lt;br /&gt;
As on this day you have seen Me. (53)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By single-minded devotion&lt;br /&gt;
I may be known in this true form, &lt;br /&gt;
Seen in reality, also&lt;br /&gt;
Entered into, Scorcher of Foes. (54)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who does work for Me alone,&lt;br /&gt;
Devoted to Me as his goal, &lt;br /&gt;
Freed from desire, without ill will&lt;br /&gt;
To any, enters into Me. (55)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Om Tat Sat&lt;br /&gt;
Thus in the Upanishads of the glorious Bhagavad Gita, the science of the Eternal, the scripture of Yoga, the dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjuna, ends the eleventh discourse entitled: The Yoga of the Vision of the Cosmic Form.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
Now hear from Me the supreme word&lt;br /&gt;
Which I speak to you, Mighty-Armed, &lt;br /&gt;
For you are beloved to Me.&lt;br /&gt;
I speak desiring your welfare. (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Neither the multitude of gods&lt;br /&gt;
Or great seers know My origin. &lt;br /&gt;
In truth I am the source of the&lt;br /&gt;
Gods, as well as of the great seers. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who knows Me as birthless and&lt;br /&gt;
Beginningless, the world’s Great Lord–&lt;br /&gt;
He alone among mortals is&lt;br /&gt;
Undeluded and freed from sins. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Reason, knowledge, non-delusion,&lt;br /&gt;
Forbearance, truth, restraint of sense,&lt;br /&gt;
Calmness, happiness, misery,&lt;br /&gt;
Birth, death, fear, also fearlessness, (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Non-injury, and contentment,1&lt;br /&gt;
Austerity, benevolence, &lt;br /&gt;
Both good repute and ill repute–&lt;br /&gt;
All these arise from Me alone. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ancient Seven Great Rishis2&lt;br /&gt;
And Four Manus,3 with pow’rs like Me, &lt;br /&gt;
Were born of My mind, and from them&lt;br /&gt;
Are all the creatures in this world. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who knows all these manifold&lt;br /&gt;
Manifestations of My pow’r &lt;br /&gt;
And glory, becomes established&lt;br /&gt;
In yoga–there can be no doubt. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am the origin of all,&lt;br /&gt;
And from Me ev’rything evolves–&lt;br /&gt;
Thinking thus, the wise worship Me&lt;br /&gt;
With consciousness all filled with love. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With minds and lives intent on Me,&lt;br /&gt;
Enlightening4 one another, &lt;br /&gt;
And speaking of Me constantly,&lt;br /&gt;
They are content and do rejoice. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To them, the constantly steadfast,&lt;br /&gt;
Worshipping Me with affection,&lt;br /&gt;
I bestow the buddhi-yoga&lt;br /&gt;
By which they shall come unto Me. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out of compassion for them, I,&lt;br /&gt;
Abiding in their hearts, destroy &lt;br /&gt;
The darkness born of ignorance&lt;br /&gt;
By the shining lamp of knowledge. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: &lt;br /&gt;
Supreme Brahman, Supreme Abode,&lt;br /&gt;
Supreme Purifier, Divine,&lt;br /&gt;
Eternal Person, the First God,&lt;br /&gt;
The Birthless and All-pervading– (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus all the sages declare You:&lt;br /&gt;
Narad’,5 Asita Devala,6 &lt;br /&gt;
And Vyasa7–and now do You, too,&lt;br /&gt;
Yourself declare it unto me. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I regard all this that You say&lt;br /&gt;
To me as true, O Keshava.&lt;br /&gt;
In truth, neither gods nor demons&lt;br /&gt;
Know of Your manifestation. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For You know Yourself by Yourself,&lt;br /&gt;
O You, the Supreme Purusha8: &lt;br /&gt;
Source of beings, Lord of beings,&lt;br /&gt;
God of gods, Ruler of the world. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You should now describe completely&lt;br /&gt;
Your divine manifestations &lt;br /&gt;
By which, pervading all these worlds,&lt;br /&gt;
You do abide within all things. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How may I know You, O Yogi,&lt;br /&gt;
Always meditating on You?&lt;br /&gt;
In what aspects of Your Being&lt;br /&gt;
Are You to be thought of by me? (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Explain to me in more detail&lt;br /&gt;
Your pow’rs and manifestations.&lt;br /&gt;
I am never satiated&lt;br /&gt;
In hearing Your amrit-like9 words. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
Listen! I shall tell you of My&lt;br /&gt;
Divine Self-manifestations; &lt;br /&gt;
But only the chief ones, because&lt;br /&gt;
There is no end to My expanse. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am the Self abiding in&lt;br /&gt;
The heart of all beings; I am &lt;br /&gt;
The beginning, the middle, and&lt;br /&gt;
Also the end of all beings. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am Vishnu10 of Adityas;11&lt;br /&gt;
The Sun among luminaries;&lt;br /&gt;
I am Marichi of Maruts;12&lt;br /&gt;

I am Indra14 among the gods; &lt;br /&gt;
Of the senses I am the mind;&lt;br /&gt;
Intelligence in all beings. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Among the Rudras,15 Shankara;16&lt;br /&gt;
Kuber17 of yakshas,18 rakshasas; &lt;br /&gt;
Of Vasus19 I am Pavaka;20&lt;br /&gt;
And of mountains Meru21 am I. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And of priests, O son of Pritha,&lt;br /&gt;
Know Me the chief, Brihaspati;22 &lt;br /&gt;
Of generals I am Skanda;23&lt;br /&gt;
Among the waters, the ocean. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of great Rishis24 I am Bhrigu;25&lt;br /&gt;
Of words, the one-syllabled OM; &lt;br /&gt;
Of Yajñas,26 the Japa27 Yajña;28&lt;br /&gt;
Of immovables: Himalayas. (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of trees I am the Ashwattha;29&lt;br /&gt;
Of Deva-rishis, Narada; &lt;br /&gt;
Of Gandharvas,30 Chitraratha;31&lt;br /&gt;
Among siddhas,32 Sage Kapila.33 (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Among horses, Uchchaishravas34&lt;br /&gt;
Who was born of the Amrita; &lt;br /&gt;
Of elephants, Airavata;35&lt;br /&gt;
And among men I am the king. (27)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Among weapons, the Thunderbolt;36&lt;br /&gt;
Among cows I am Kamadhuk;37 &lt;br /&gt;
The cause of offspring, Kandarpa;38&lt;br /&gt;
Of serpents I am Vasuki.39 (28)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of Nagas40 I am Ananta;41&lt;br /&gt;
Of water beings, Varuna;42 &lt;br /&gt;
Of pitris43 I am Aryaman;44&lt;br /&gt;
Of controllers I am Yama.45 (29)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

I the Sustainer, the All-formed. (33)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

I am victory and effort;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Among Vrishnis,55 Vasudeva;56&lt;br /&gt;

The knowledge of knowers am I. (38)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whate’er the seed of all beings,&lt;br /&gt;
That also am I, Arjuna. &lt;br /&gt;
No thing, moving or unmoving,&lt;br /&gt;
Can e’er exist apart from Me. (39)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna, there is no end of&lt;br /&gt;
My divine manifestations. &lt;br /&gt;
What I have spoken unto you&lt;br /&gt;
Is but an example of them. (40)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whatever is glorious or&lt;br /&gt;
Prosperous or yet powerful, &lt;br /&gt;
Understand that springs from but a&lt;br /&gt;
Fraction of My radiant Pow’r. (41)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of what value is it for you&lt;br /&gt;
To know all this, O Arjuna?&lt;br /&gt;
I ever support this whole world&lt;br /&gt;
By just one portion of Myself. (42)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Om Tat Sat &lt;br /&gt;
Thus in the Upanishads of the glorious Bhagavad Gita, the science of the Eternal, the scripture of Yoga, the dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjuna, ends the tenth discourse entitled: The Yoga of Divine Glories.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
To you who argue not shall I&lt;br /&gt;
Declare this most secret knowledge Which, when joined with realization,&lt;br /&gt;
Shall free you from impurity. (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Royal knowledge, royal secret,&lt;br /&gt;
This the supreme purifier, &lt;br /&gt;
Readily learned by the righteous,&lt;br /&gt;
Easy to practice, eternal. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those without faith in this dharma,&lt;br /&gt;
Return, without attaining Me, &lt;br /&gt;
To the path of birth in this world–&lt;br /&gt;
The realm of death, O Arjuna. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All this world is pervaded by&lt;br /&gt;
Me in My unmanifest form: All beings do dwell within Me,&lt;br /&gt;
But I do not dwell within them. (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nor do beings dwell within Me–&lt;br /&gt;
Behold this, My Divine Yoga! &lt;br /&gt;
Bringing forth and supporting them,&lt;br /&gt;
My Self yet does not dwell in them.1 (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As mighty winds move ev’rywhere,&lt;br /&gt;
Yet always dwell in the ether, &lt;br /&gt;
Know, Arjuna, that even so&lt;br /&gt;
Do all beings dwell within Me. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the end of a kalpa,2 all&lt;br /&gt;
Beings merge in My Prakriti: &lt;br /&gt;
At dawn of another kalpa,&lt;br /&gt;
I Myself send them forth again. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Animating My Prakriti,&lt;br /&gt;
I project again and again &lt;br /&gt;
This whole multitude of beings,&lt;br /&gt;
Helpless under Prakriti’s sway. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And yet these acts do not bind Me,&lt;br /&gt;
Sitting as one indifferent &lt;br /&gt;
And fully unattached to them:&lt;br /&gt;
This is the truth, Dhananjaya. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because of My proximity,&lt;br /&gt;
Prakriti produces all this, &lt;br /&gt;
The moving and the unmoving;&lt;br /&gt;
The world revolves because of this. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unaware of My higher state&lt;br /&gt;
As the Great Lord of all beings, &lt;br /&gt;
The deluded disregard Me&lt;br /&gt;
Dwelling within a human form. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of vain hopes, vain deeds, vain knowledge,&lt;br /&gt;
Without sense–truly they abide&lt;br /&gt;
In the delusive nature of&lt;br /&gt;
The rakshasas3 and asuras.4 (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But those great souls that abide in&lt;br /&gt;
Their divine nature, Arjuna, &lt;br /&gt;
Worship Me single-mindedly,&lt;br /&gt;
As their eternal Origin. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Glorifying Me always and&lt;br /&gt;
Striving ever with firm resolve,&lt;br /&gt;
| Bowing to Me in devotion,&lt;br /&gt;
Always steadfast, they worship Me. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And others, sacrificing by&lt;br /&gt;
The sacrifice of pure knowledge, &lt;br /&gt;
Worship Me, the All-Formed, as one,&lt;br /&gt;
As distinct, and as manifold. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am the rite, the sacrifice,&lt;br /&gt;
The offering, the offered things, &lt;br /&gt;
I am the mantra and the ghee,&lt;br /&gt;
The fire, and act of oblation. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Father and Mother of this world,&lt;br /&gt;
Sustainer, Grandfather, the Known,5 &lt;br /&gt;
Purifier, the Pranava,&lt;br /&gt;
The Rig, Sama, Yajur Vedas. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Goal, Supporter, the Lord, Witness,&lt;br /&gt;
Abode, Refuge, Friend, Origin, &lt;br /&gt;
Dissolution, and Substratum,&lt;br /&gt;
Storehouse, Seed Imperishable. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the sun I give heat and I&lt;br /&gt;
Withhold and send forth rain; &lt;br /&gt;
I am Both immortality and death;&lt;br /&gt;
Being and non-being am I! (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The knowers of the three Vedas worship Me&lt;br /&gt;
By sacrifice, by drinking Soma, and thus &lt;br /&gt;
Made pure from sin pray for passage to heaven;6&lt;br /&gt;
Gain worlds and enjoy pleasures of the Devas. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having enjoyed the heaven-world, with merit&lt;br /&gt;
Exhausted, they re-enter the mortal world. &lt;br /&gt;
Thus, keeping the injunctions of the Vedas,&lt;br /&gt;
Filled with desires, they constantly come and go. (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who direct their thoughts to Me,&lt;br /&gt;
Worshipping Me with steadfast mind, &lt;br /&gt;
For them I secure what they lack&lt;br /&gt;
And preserve that which they possess. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even those who with faith worship&lt;br /&gt;
Other gods, also worship Me, &lt;br /&gt;
Though with a mistaken approach7–&lt;br /&gt;
This is the truth, Son of Kunti. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Truly I am the Enjoyer,&lt;br /&gt;
And Lord of all sacrifices; &lt;br /&gt;
But because they do not know Me&lt;br /&gt;
They return, subject to rebirth. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To the gods go their devotees;&lt;br /&gt;
To fathers go their devotees; &lt;br /&gt;
To spirits go their devotees;&lt;br /&gt;
And to Me go My devotees.8 (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whoe’er with devotion offers&lt;br /&gt;
A leaf, flower, fruit, or water, &lt;br /&gt;
That I accept–the devout gift&lt;br /&gt;
Offered by the pure-minded one. (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whate’er you do, whate’er you eat,&lt;br /&gt;
Whate’er you sacrifice or give, &lt;br /&gt;
Whate’er austerity you do,&lt;br /&gt;
Do that as offering to Me. (27)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus shall you be freed from the bonds&lt;br /&gt;
Of actions–both good and evil; &lt;br /&gt;
Steadfast in renunciation&lt;br /&gt;
And freed, you shall come unto Me. (28)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am the same to all beings:&lt;br /&gt;
To me none is disliked or dear. &lt;br /&gt;
But those worshipping Me, devout,&lt;br /&gt;
Are in Me, and I am in them. (29)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If even an evildoer&lt;br /&gt;
Worships me single-heartedly, &lt;br /&gt;
He should be considered righteous,&lt;br /&gt;
Truly having rightly resolved. (30)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Quickly he becomes virtuous&lt;br /&gt;
And goes to everlasting peace.&lt;br /&gt;
O Son of Kunti, understand:&lt;br /&gt;
My devotee is never lost. (31)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Women, Vaishyas, also Shudras,&lt;br /&gt;
Even those born of evil wombs, &lt;br /&gt;
All those who take refuge in Me&lt;br /&gt;
Also go to the Supreme Goal.9 (32)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How much more, then, holy Brahmins&lt;br /&gt;
And devoted royal10 sages! &lt;br /&gt;
Having obtained this transient&lt;br /&gt;
And joyless world, then worship Me. (33)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With mind fixed on Me, devoted,&lt;br /&gt;
Worshipping, bowing down to Me, &lt;br /&gt;
Thus made steadfast, with Me as your&lt;br /&gt;
Supreme aim–you shall come to Me. (34)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Om Tat Sat &lt;br /&gt;
Thus in the Upanishads of the glorious Bhagavad Gita, the science of the Eternal, the scripture of Yoga, the dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjuna, ends the ninth discourse entitled: The Yoga of the Kingly Science and Kingly Secret.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: &lt;br /&gt;
What is Brahman and Primal Self,&lt;br /&gt;
And what is Karma, O Krishna, &lt;br /&gt;
What is the Primal Element,&lt;br /&gt;
Also, what is the Primal God? (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Who, and in what way, is Primal&lt;br /&gt;
Sacrifice here in this body? &lt;br /&gt;
And how are You known at the time&lt;br /&gt;
Of death by the self-controlled ones? (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
Deathless is the Supreme Brahman&lt;br /&gt;
The Primal Self that dwells in all; &lt;br /&gt;
The sacrificial offering:&lt;br /&gt;
Karma–causing both birth and life. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Primal Element is the&lt;br /&gt;
Perishable adjunct of this; &lt;br /&gt;
The Primal God is Indweller,&lt;br /&gt;
And I the Primal Sacrifice. (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And he who at the time of death&lt;br /&gt;
Meditating on Me alone, &lt;br /&gt;
Goes forth, and leaving the body,&lt;br /&gt;
Doubtless attains to My Being. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whatever he remembers when&lt;br /&gt;
Departing from the body, that &lt;br /&gt;
Alone is reached by him because&lt;br /&gt;
Of his constant thinking of that. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, at all times, constantly&lt;br /&gt;
Remember Me, and then do fight: &lt;br /&gt;
With mind and intellect absorbed&lt;br /&gt;
In Me, you thus shall come to Me. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With mind made steadfast by yoga,&lt;br /&gt;
Which turns not to anything else, &lt;br /&gt;
To the divine supreme Spirit&lt;br /&gt;
He goes, meditating on Him. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who meditates on the Seer, the Ruler,&lt;br /&gt;
The ancient, subtler than the atom, support Of all, &lt;br /&gt;
Whose form is inconceivable and&lt;br /&gt;
Radiant like the sun and beyond darkness. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the hour of death with his mind unmoving,&lt;br /&gt;
Endowed with devotion and with yoga pow’r, &lt;br /&gt;
With the prana ent’ring between the eyebrows,&lt;br /&gt;
He goes unto the divine supreme Spirit. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That which Veda-knowers call the Eternal,1&lt;br /&gt;
Which the ascetics, free from passion, enter; &lt;br /&gt;
Desiring which they live as brahmacharins,&lt;br /&gt;
That path I shall explain unto you briefly. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Controlling all of the senses,&lt;br /&gt;
Confining the mind in the heart, &lt;br /&gt;
Drawing pranas into the head,&lt;br /&gt;
Doing yogic concentration, (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Uttering OM, the syllable&lt;br /&gt;
That is God, and intent on Me, &lt;br /&gt;
Departing thus from his body,&lt;br /&gt;
He then attains the Goal Supreme. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who thinks of Me constantly,&lt;br /&gt;
Whose mind does never go elsewhere, &lt;br /&gt;
Yogi of constant devotion–&lt;br /&gt;
For him I am easy to reach. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Reaching the highest perfection,&lt;br /&gt;
Having attained Me, those great souls &lt;br /&gt;
Are no more subject to rebirth–&lt;br /&gt;
The evanescent home of pain. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All worlds, including Brahma’s realm,&lt;br /&gt;
Are subject to rebirth’s return, &lt;br /&gt;
But for him who attains to Me&lt;br /&gt;
There is no rebirth, Kunti’s Son. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The knowers of true “day” and “night”&lt;br /&gt;
Know Brahma’s Day and Brahma’s Night &lt;br /&gt;
Are each a thousand yugas2 long–&lt;br /&gt;
And each one comes unto an end. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the approach of Brahma’s Day,&lt;br /&gt;
All manifested things come forth &lt;br /&gt;
From the unmanifest, and then&lt;br /&gt;
Return to that at Brahma’s Night. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Helpless, the same host of beings&lt;br /&gt;
Being born again and again, &lt;br /&gt;
Merge at the approach of the Night&lt;br /&gt;
And emerge at the dawn of Day. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But beyond this unmanifest&lt;br /&gt;
There is the Unmanifested, &lt;br /&gt;
Eternal Existence, Which is&lt;br /&gt;
Not destroyed when all beings merge. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The unmanifest, eternal,&lt;br /&gt;
Is declared as the Supreme Goal, &lt;br /&gt;
Attaining Which they return not.&lt;br /&gt;
This is My supreme dwelling place. (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yea, this is the Supreme Being,&lt;br /&gt;
Attained by devotion alone, &lt;br /&gt;
Within Which all beings do dwell,&lt;br /&gt;
By which all this is pervaded. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now I shall tell you, Arjuna,&lt;br /&gt;
Of the times in which, departing, &lt;br /&gt;
The yogis shall once more return&lt;br /&gt;
Or, departing, shall not return. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Fire, light, daytime, the bright fortnight,&lt;br /&gt;
The six months of the sun’s North Path–&lt;br /&gt;
Knowers of Brahman take this path&lt;br /&gt;
And thereby go unto Brahman. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Smoke, nighttime, and the dark fortnight,&lt;br /&gt;
The six months of the sun’s South Path– &lt;br /&gt;
Taking this path the yogi gains&lt;br /&gt;
The lunar light, and thus returns. (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Truly these two light and dark paths&lt;br /&gt;
The world thinks to be eternal. &lt;br /&gt;
By one he goes to non-return;&lt;br /&gt;
By the other, returns again. (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No yogi who knows these two paths,&lt;br /&gt;
O Pritha’s son, is deluded. &lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, be steadfast in yoga&lt;br /&gt;
Throughout all times, O Arjuna. (27)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whatever merit is declared&lt;br /&gt;
As gained from Vedas, sacrifice, &lt;br /&gt;
Austerity and gifts–yogis&lt;br /&gt;
Surpass and gain the Great Abode. (28)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Om Tat Sat &lt;br /&gt;

      &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
With your mind intent upon Me,&lt;br /&gt;
Taking refuge in Me, now hear &lt;br /&gt;
How through the practice of yoga&lt;br /&gt;
You shall fully come to know Me. (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To you I shall explain in full&lt;br /&gt;
Knowledge and realization, &lt;br /&gt;
Which, being known, nothing further&lt;br /&gt;
Remains to be known in this world. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of thousands of human beings,&lt;br /&gt;
Scarcely one strives for perfection; &lt;br /&gt;
And of those adept in striving,&lt;br /&gt;
Scarcely any knows Me in truth. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Earth, water, fire, air, ether, mind,&lt;br /&gt;
Intellect, ego-principle: &lt;br /&gt;
These are the eight divisions of&lt;br /&gt;
My prakriti, O Arjuna.1 (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Such is my lower prakriti,&lt;br /&gt;
Yet know my higher prakriti &lt;br /&gt;
Sustains all beings that exist&lt;br /&gt;
And the whole cosmos, Mighty Armed. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These two Prakritis should be known&lt;br /&gt;
As the womb of all these beings. &lt;br /&gt;
Of this whole universe am I&lt;br /&gt;
The Origin and Dissolver. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Higher than Me, Dhananjaya,&lt;br /&gt;
There is absolutely nothing. &lt;br /&gt;
All creation is strung on Me&lt;br /&gt;
Like strands of jewels on a thread. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am the taste within water,&lt;br /&gt;
The radiance of moon and sun; &lt;br /&gt;
I am Om in all the Vedas,&lt;br /&gt;
Sound in ether, manhood in men. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am the fragrance within earth,&lt;br /&gt;
And the brilliance within the fire; &lt;br /&gt;
The life in all beings, and the&lt;br /&gt;
Austerity of ascetics. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Know me as the eternal seed&lt;br /&gt;
Of all beings; th’intelligence &lt;br /&gt;
Of the intelligent, and the&lt;br /&gt;
Splendor of the splendid am I. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am the strength of the strong, free&lt;br /&gt;
From all desire and from passion.&lt;br /&gt;
I am the desire in beings&lt;br /&gt;
That is according to dharma. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
States of being which are sattwic,&lt;br /&gt;
Rajasic and tamasic2–know &lt;br /&gt;
As proceeding from Me, yet I&lt;br /&gt;
Am not in them, but they in Me. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All this world is deluded by&lt;br /&gt;
The states composed of the gunas.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus it perceives Me not, Who am&lt;br /&gt;
Eternal and higher than these. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This divine illusion of Mine&lt;br /&gt;
Is difficult to go beyond. &lt;br /&gt;
Only those devoted to Me&lt;br /&gt;
Shall pass beyond this illusion. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But those not devoted to Me–&lt;br /&gt;
Evil-doers, deluded, low– &lt;br /&gt;
Deprived by Maya of good sense,&lt;br /&gt;
Follow the way of the demons. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These four kinds of virtuous men&lt;br /&gt;
Do worship Me, O Arjuna: &lt;br /&gt;
The distressed, seekers of welfare,&lt;br /&gt;
Seekers of knowledge, and the wise. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of them, the wise man, e’er steadfast,&lt;br /&gt;
Devoted to the One, excels; &lt;br /&gt;
Supremely dear am I to him,&lt;br /&gt;
And he is dear to Me, as well. (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All these indeed are exalted,&lt;br /&gt;
But I see the man of wisdom &lt;br /&gt;
As My Self. He, with mind steadfast,&lt;br /&gt;
Abides in Me, the Supreme Goal. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the end of his many births&lt;br /&gt;
The wise man takes refuge in Me. &lt;br /&gt;
He knows: “All is Vasudeva.3”&lt;br /&gt;
How very rare is that great soul! (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Others, deprived of their good sense,&lt;br /&gt;
By “this or that” desire or rite,&lt;br /&gt;
Devote themselves to other gods,&lt;br /&gt;
Impelled thus by their own natures. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whatever form a devotee&lt;br /&gt;
May seek to worship with full faith–&lt;br /&gt;
That faith of his is blessed by Me&lt;br /&gt;
To be steadfast, unwavering. (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Endowed with faith he then receives&lt;br /&gt;
His desires from that worshipped form &lt;br /&gt;
Because I have decreed that those&lt;br /&gt;
Desires should be granted to him. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But temporary is the fruit&lt;br /&gt;
For those of small understanding. &lt;br /&gt;
To the gods go their worshippers;&lt;br /&gt;
My worshippers come unto Me. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The unintelligent think Me&lt;br /&gt;
Manifest, though Unmanifest, &lt;br /&gt;
Not knowing My supreme state as&lt;br /&gt;
Unchanging and transcendental. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Veiled by illusion born of the&lt;br /&gt;
Combinations of the gunas, &lt;br /&gt;
This deluded world knows Me not–&lt;br /&gt;
The Unborn, the Immutable. (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I know the departed beings,&lt;br /&gt;
Also the living, Arjuna, &lt;br /&gt;
And those who are yet to be born;&lt;br /&gt;
But none whatsoever knows me. (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By desire and hatred rising&lt;br /&gt;
Through duality’s delusion, &lt;br /&gt;
At birth all beings fall into&lt;br /&gt;
Delusion, O Scorcher of Foes. (27)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But those men of virtuous deeds,&lt;br /&gt;
They whose sin has come to an end, &lt;br /&gt;
Freed from the pairs of opposites–&lt;br /&gt;
They worship Me with firm resolve. (28)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those men who take refuge in Me&lt;br /&gt;
Seek freedom from old age and death; &lt;br /&gt;
They know Brahman thoroughly, and&lt;br /&gt;
Know the Self and Karma as well. (29)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who know Me, the Primal One,&lt;br /&gt;
The Primal God, Chief Sacrifice, &lt;br /&gt;
They truly know Me with steadfast&lt;br /&gt;
Thought even at the time of death. (30)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Om Tat Sat&lt;br /&gt;

(Bhagavad Gita 7:8)&lt;br /&gt;
"I will tell you briefly of that Goal which all the Vedas with one voice propound, which all the austerities speak of, and wishing for Which people practice discipline: It is Om." (Katha Upanishad 1.2.15)&lt;br /&gt;
"Dismiss other utterances. Om is the bridge to immortality." (Mundaka Upanishad 2.2.5)&lt;br /&gt;
"Om is Brahman. Om is all this. He who utters Om with the intention 'I shall attain Brahman' does verily attain Brahman." (Taittiriya Upanishad 1.8.1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Om is the resonant frequency of the cosmos. In the beginning Om arose from the primal silence of pure consciousness, and from It came forth all that has ever been, is now, or ever shall be. And into It do all things return.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
He who performs bounden duty&lt;br /&gt;
Without desiring action’s fruit– &lt;br /&gt;
He is a renouncer, yogi,&lt;br /&gt;
Not he without fire or action. (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Know that to be karma yoga&lt;br /&gt;
Which also is called renouncement, &lt;br /&gt;
None becomes a karma yogi&lt;br /&gt;
Without renouncing inner deeds. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Desiring to attain yoga,&lt;br /&gt;
The wise use action as the means; &lt;br /&gt;
For him who has attained yoga,&lt;br /&gt;
Tranquility becomes the means. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When he is attached neither to&lt;br /&gt;
The sense objects nor to actions, &lt;br /&gt;
And has renounced all purposing,&lt;br /&gt;
He’s said to have attained yoga. (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He should lift himself by the Self;&lt;br /&gt;
He should never degrade himself; &lt;br /&gt;
The Self is indeed the self’s friend,&lt;br /&gt;
And the self’s only enemy. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For him who has conquered himself&lt;br /&gt;
By the Self, the Self is a friend; &lt;br /&gt;
But for him who has not conquered&lt;br /&gt;
Himself, the Self remains a foe. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The highest Self of him who has&lt;br /&gt;
Conquered himself and is peaceful, &lt;br /&gt;
Is steadfast in cold, heat, pleasure,&lt;br /&gt;
Pain; and honor and dishonor. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The yogi who is content in&lt;br /&gt;
Knowledge and discrimination, &lt;br /&gt;
With senses conquered–unto him&lt;br /&gt;
Earth, stone, and gold are all the same. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He attains eminence who looks&lt;br /&gt;
The same on well-wishers, friends, foes, &lt;br /&gt;
Neutral to enemies and kin,&lt;br /&gt;
The righteous and the unrighteous. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Constantly concentrating on&lt;br /&gt;
The Self, the yogi should remain &lt;br /&gt;
Alone, with thought and self controlled,&lt;br /&gt;
Without desires or possessions. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Establishing for himself in&lt;br /&gt;
A clean place, not too high or low, &lt;br /&gt;
Covered with a cloth and with a&lt;br /&gt;
Antelope skin and kusha grass, (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With mind one-pointed, thought controlled,&lt;br /&gt;
Senses subdued, let him sit there &lt;br /&gt;
On that seat and practice yoga&lt;br /&gt;
For his self-purification. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Holding his body, head, and neck&lt;br /&gt;
Erect, motionless and steady, &lt;br /&gt;
Looking t’ward the tip of his nose&lt;br /&gt;
Steadfastly, not looking around. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With mind quieted, fear banished,&lt;br /&gt;
Firm in the brahmachari’s vow, &lt;br /&gt;
With mind controlled, thoughts fixed on Me,&lt;br /&gt;
He should sit, devoted to Me. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Always disciplining himself,&lt;br /&gt;
The yogi whose mind is subdued &lt;br /&gt;
Goes to nirvana, supreme peace,&lt;br /&gt;
And attains to union with Me. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yoga is not eating too much,&lt;br /&gt;
Nor is it not eating at all. &lt;br /&gt;
Not the habit of too much sleep,&lt;br /&gt;
Nor keeping awake, Arjuna. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the moderate in eating&lt;br /&gt;
And in diversion, disciplined, &lt;br /&gt;
Moderate in sleep and waking,&lt;br /&gt;
Yoga destroys all his sorrow.1 (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When he is absorbed in the Self&lt;br /&gt;
Alone, and with his mind controlled, &lt;br /&gt;
Free from longing, from all desires,&lt;br /&gt;
Then he is known to be steadfast. (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As a lamp in a windless place&lt;br /&gt;
Flickers not–to such is compared &lt;br /&gt;
The yogi with his mind controlled,&lt;br /&gt;
Steadfast in yoga of the Self. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the mind comes to rest, restrained,&lt;br /&gt;
By the practicing of yoga, &lt;br /&gt;
Beholding the Self by the self,&lt;br /&gt;
He is satisfied in the Self. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When he feels that infinite bliss–&lt;br /&gt;
Through his purified intellect– &lt;br /&gt;
Which transcends the senses; then set&lt;br /&gt;
In his true state he is steadfast. (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having obtained this, he regards&lt;br /&gt;
No other gain better than that, &lt;br /&gt;
And established therein he is&lt;br /&gt;
Not moved by heaviest sorrow. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let that which is called yoga be&lt;br /&gt;
Known as the state of severance &lt;br /&gt;
From pain, and which should be practiced&lt;br /&gt;
With perseverance, undisturbed. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Abandoning wilful desires–&lt;br /&gt;
All of them without exception– &lt;br /&gt;
Also completely restraining&lt;br /&gt;
The many senses by the mind. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With intellect set in patience,&lt;br /&gt;
With the mind fastened on the self, &lt;br /&gt;
He gains quietude by degrees:&lt;br /&gt;
Let him not think of any thing. (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whenever the unsteady mind,&lt;br /&gt;
Moving here and there, wanders off, &lt;br /&gt;
He should subdue and hold it back–&lt;br /&gt;
Direct it to the Self’s control. (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The yogi whose mind is tranquil&lt;br /&gt;
With passions calmed, free of evil, &lt;br /&gt;
Having become one with Brahman,&lt;br /&gt;
Attains the supreme happiness. (27)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus constantly disciplining&lt;br /&gt;
Himself, and freed from all evil, &lt;br /&gt;
Easily contacting Brahman,&lt;br /&gt;
He attains boundless happiness. (28)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He, disciplined by yoga, sees&lt;br /&gt;
The Self present in all beings, &lt;br /&gt;
And all beings within the Self.&lt;br /&gt;
He sees the same Self at all times. (29)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The one who sees Me ev’rywhere,&lt;br /&gt;
And who sees all things within Me; &lt;br /&gt;
I am never lost unto him,&lt;br /&gt;
Nor is he ever lost to Me. (30)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He, established in unity,&lt;br /&gt;
Worships Me dwelling in all things, &lt;br /&gt;
Whatever be his mode of life,&lt;br /&gt;
That yogi e’er abides in Me. (31)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who judges pleasure or pain&lt;br /&gt;
By the same standard ev’rywhere, &lt;br /&gt;
That he applies unto himself,&lt;br /&gt;
That yogi is deemed the highest. (32)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: This yoga which is taught by You&lt;br /&gt;
Characterized by evenness, &lt;br /&gt;
I do not see how it endures,&lt;br /&gt;
Owing to the mind’s restlessness. (33)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The mind is restless, turbulent,&lt;br /&gt;
Strong, and unyielding, O Krishna; &lt;br /&gt;
I deem it is hard to control–&lt;br /&gt;
As hard as to control the wind. (34)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
Without doubt the mind is restless&lt;br /&gt;
And is difficult to control; &lt;br /&gt;
But through practice and dispassion&lt;br /&gt;
It may be governed, Kunti’s son. (35)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yoga is hard to be attained&lt;br /&gt;
By one whose self is uncontrolled; &lt;br /&gt;
But that one who is self-controlled,&lt;br /&gt;
Striving by right means, attains it. (36)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: &lt;br /&gt;
Possessed of faith, but uncontrolled,&lt;br /&gt;
With mind wandering from yoga, &lt;br /&gt;
What is the end of him who fails&lt;br /&gt;
To gain perfection in yoga? (37)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Does he not, fallen from both,2 then&lt;br /&gt;
Perish, supportless, a torn cloud, &lt;br /&gt;
O mighty-armed, deluded in&lt;br /&gt;
The path that leads unto Brahman? (38)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This doubt of mine, O Keshava,&lt;br /&gt;
You should now completely dispel; &lt;br /&gt;
It is not possible for aught&lt;br /&gt;
But You to dispel this my doubt. (39)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
Verily, O son of Pritha,&lt;br /&gt;
There is no destruction for him &lt;br /&gt;
Neither here nor hereafter, for&lt;br /&gt;
Doers of good ne’er come to grief. (40)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He gains the worlds of the righteous,&lt;br /&gt;
And dwells there throughout countless years; &lt;br /&gt;
Then the fallen yogi takes birth&lt;br /&gt;
Among the pure and prosperous. (41)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Or else he will be born into&lt;br /&gt;
A family of wise yogis; &lt;br /&gt;
Verily, a birth such as that&lt;br /&gt;
Is hard to obtain in this world. (42)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There he regains the knowledge which&lt;br /&gt;
He acquired in his former life, &lt;br /&gt;
And strives even more than before,&lt;br /&gt;
For perfection, O Kuru’s son. (43)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His previous practice alone&lt;br /&gt;
Impels him on the yogic path–&lt;br /&gt;
He who just asks about yoga&lt;br /&gt;
Rises above the Vedic rites. (44)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That yogi, striving earnestly,&lt;br /&gt;
Pure from taint, gradually gains &lt;br /&gt;
Perfection throughout many births&lt;br /&gt;
And thus reaches the highest goal. (45)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The yogi is regarded as&lt;br /&gt;
Superior to ascetics, &lt;br /&gt;
And jnanis, or doers of works–&lt;br /&gt;
Then be a yogi, Arjuna! (46)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of all the yogis, he who with&lt;br /&gt;
The inner self merged into Me, &lt;br /&gt;
With faith devoted unto Me,&lt;br /&gt;
I deem him as the most steadfast. (47)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Om Tat Sat &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Arjuna said: Renunciation of action&lt;br /&gt;
And yoga1–You praise both of these. &lt;br /&gt;
Which is the better of these two?&lt;br /&gt;
Tell this to me decisively. (1)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Holy Lord said: &lt;br /&gt;
Renunciation and yoga&lt;br /&gt;
Both lead to highest happiness; &lt;br /&gt;
Of the two, however, yoga&lt;br /&gt;
Excels mere renunciation. (2)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He is a constant renouncer&lt;br /&gt;
Who neither likes nor dislikes: for &lt;br /&gt;
Free from the pairs of opposites,&lt;br /&gt;
He easily is freed from bonds. (3)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Sankhya and yoga are diff’rent,”&lt;br /&gt;
The childish declare–not the wise. &lt;br /&gt;
If one is practiced correctly,&lt;br /&gt;
That person finds the fruit of both. (4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The place attained by the Sankhyas&lt;br /&gt;
Is also attained by yogis. &lt;br /&gt;
Sankhya and yoga are one. He&lt;br /&gt;
Who perceives this truly perceives. (5)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Without yoga, O Mighty-Armed,&lt;br /&gt;
Renunciation’s hard to gain. &lt;br /&gt;
The sage disciplined in yoga&lt;br /&gt;
Quickly attains unto Brahman. (6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yoga-yoked, with self purified,&lt;br /&gt;
With self subdued, senses conquered, &lt;br /&gt;
His self the self of all beings,&lt;br /&gt;
He is not tainted when acting. (7)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“I do not do anything;” thus&lt;br /&gt;
Thinks the steadfast knower of truth, &lt;br /&gt;
Seeing, hearing, touching, smelling,&lt;br /&gt;
Eating, walking, sleeping, breathing. (8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Speaking, releasing, and holding;&lt;br /&gt;
Opening and closing his eyes– &lt;br /&gt;
Convinced that it is the senses&lt;br /&gt;
That move among the sense-objects. (9)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Offering actions to Brahman,&lt;br /&gt;
Having abandoned attachment, &lt;br /&gt;
He acts untainted by evil&lt;br /&gt;
As lotus leaf is not wetted. (10)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yogis act only with body,&lt;br /&gt;
Mind, intellect, or the senses, &lt;br /&gt;
Forsaking attachment to deeds,&lt;br /&gt;
For purifying of their heart. (11)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well-poised, forsaking action’s fruit,&lt;br /&gt;
They attain peace of steadfastness; &lt;br /&gt;
But those led by desire are bound&lt;br /&gt;
By attachment to action’s fruit. (12)&lt;br /&gt;
Renouncing all acts with the mind,&lt;br /&gt;
The embodied sits happily2. &lt;br /&gt;
Within the city of nine gates,&lt;br /&gt;
Not acting or causing actions. (13)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Neither agency, nor actions&lt;br /&gt;
Does the Lord create for the world, &lt;br /&gt;
Nor union with the fruit of deeds–&lt;br /&gt;
Inherent nature does the deeds. (14)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Omnipresent takes note of&lt;br /&gt;
Neither merit nor demerit. &lt;br /&gt;
Ignorance envelops knowledge,&lt;br /&gt;
By it people are deluded. (15)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But those whose ignorance has been&lt;br /&gt;
Destroyed by knowledge of the self– &lt;br /&gt;
That knowledge of theirs, like the sun,&lt;br /&gt;
Reveals then the Supreme Brahman. (16)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With intellect absorbed in That,&lt;br /&gt;
Whose self is That, steadfast in That, &lt;br /&gt;
And whose consummation is That,&lt;br /&gt;
Purified, are freed from rebirth.3 (17)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The wise see the same atman in:&lt;br /&gt;
A wise Brahmin who’s disciplined, &lt;br /&gt;
A cow, an elephant, a dog–&lt;br /&gt;
Even in an eater of dogs.4 (18)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those whose minds rest in evenness,&lt;br /&gt;
Conquer existence in this world. &lt;br /&gt;
Brahman is even and perfect–&lt;br /&gt;
So they indeed rest in Brahman. (19)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Resting in Brahman, and steady&lt;br /&gt;
In intellect, undeluded, &lt;br /&gt;
The pleasant does not rejoice him&lt;br /&gt;
Nor does the unpleasant grieve him. (20)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unattached to external things,&lt;br /&gt;
Finding happiness in the Self, &lt;br /&gt;
And one with Brahman through yoga,&lt;br /&gt;
He gains unchanging happiness. (21)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pleasures born of contact, indeed,&lt;br /&gt;
Are wombs of pain, Son of Kunti. &lt;br /&gt;
They have beginning and an end;&lt;br /&gt;
The wise does not delight in them. (22)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He who can endure here, before&lt;br /&gt;
Liberation from the body, &lt;br /&gt;
Desire and anger’s impetus,&lt;br /&gt;
Is a yogi, a happy man. (23)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He whose happiness is within,&lt;br /&gt;
Whose delectation is within, &lt;br /&gt;
Whose light is within–that yogi,&lt;br /&gt;
One with Brahman, gains nirvana. (24)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With imperfections exhausted,&lt;br /&gt;
Doubts dispelled and senses controlled, &lt;br /&gt;
Engaged in good for all beings–&lt;br /&gt;
The seer gains Brahma-nirvana. (25)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Released from desire and anger,&lt;br /&gt;
With thoughts restrained, those ascetics &lt;br /&gt;
Who know the Self, find very near&lt;br /&gt;
The bliss of Brahma-nirvana. (26)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Excluding all outside contacts,&lt;br /&gt;
Fixing awareness ’tween the brows, &lt;br /&gt;
Balancing both inhaling and&lt;br /&gt;
Exhaling within the nostrils. (27)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Controlling sense, mind, intellect;&lt;br /&gt;
With moksha as the supreme goal; &lt;br /&gt;
Freed from desire, fear, and anger:&lt;br /&gt;
Such a sage is for ever free. (28)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing Me, the Enjoyer of&lt;br /&gt;
Sacrificial austerities, &lt;br /&gt;
Mighty Lord of all the world and&lt;br /&gt;
Friend of all creatures, he gains peace. (29)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
