Lecture series given by Nutan Swamiji, in Malaysia, during Malaysia Sadhana Shibiram 2026, on Bhakti Yoga , Chapter 12 of Bhagavad Gita.
Date: 30 April 2026
Venue: SIRD Malaysia

Swamiji emphasizes that each of the qualities enumerated in the 12th chapter of the Bhagavad Gita leads the seeker towards the Ultimate knowledge of his real identity. When pursued wholeheartedly, the qualities will enable the seeker to realize his universal identity, becoming desireless, unaffected.

Sri Krishna declares that the devotee who is neither elated by favourable outcomes nor agitated by unfavourable ones, is not overwhelmed by grief and expectations, and transcends the notions of auspicious and inauspicious, is most dear to the Supreme.

The mind of a true devotee is endowed with equalness (Samatva) towards friend & foe, honour and dishonour, and sukha & duhkha. He remains content with whatever he receives, is free from possessiveness, and is stable-minded because his mind is free from desires.
Krishna says that the devotees who practice these virtues with Shraddha, giving them the supreme value, and supreme position in life, are most dear to Him.
