Sensory Control and Even Vision Are The Two Takeaways from Bhagavad Gita

Speaking about the twelfth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, Swamiji discusses the significance of sensory control (indriya-nigrahaḥ) and fostering an equal vision (sama-buddhiḥ).

Bhagavad Gita uniquely incorporates these concepts, and it is extremely relevant for one’s sādhanā (spiritual practice). Swamiji elaborates on the six lakshanas of a śāstra and mentions sensory control as the apūrvatha (unique aspect) of Bhagavad Gita. He highlights the need to understand and apply the teachings practically, rather than merely reciting them by heart.
