our attachments are our chains which binds us to things like,home,car,furniture,son,wife,family etc.We have no problem by these things but when we attached to these things they becomes our chains.
If we want to fly in the sky we should leave the earth.This is our problem we do not want to detach from these things.for getting a new birth the old must die.st Bullaha shaha was a sufi st.he was planting nursery.A man came there and said,"st how can we find Allha? he said it is very simple.uproot a plant from one field and sow it in the other field.Likewise uproot to mind from worldly affairs and you can sow in the allhas[God] field.
Jesus said where will be our wealth automatically our mind will go there.In prayer or in meditation mind used to roaming here and there.we can see in our hearts that we are attached to these worldly things so thoughts like this type how can stop? inconsistency does not lies in that worldly affairs but whiten ourselves.
There is a word in sanskrit eashtanisht,[desirable and undesirable}.we wants desirable will come but undesirable will not come.but our body is according our deeds of previous deeds.they both will come in there time. because our body is as a field.what we had sown we will reap.But by devotion and meditation we can remain peacefully.we can see lives of many saints in every religion.
Through this blog I am trying to touch the Soul of Bhagwat Gita & nott he narrator. This is for those who are deeply interested in knowing themselves. As has been confirmed that this knowledge originated from Vedanta’s and through Lord Krishna it was revised in GITA, so I shall partially devote it to Vedanta’s as well

Thich nhat hanh said somewhere that mindfulness is like an elder brother.you pick his finger and you are protected everywhere.so if we are aware of anger, jealously,confusion than we can get rid of it.we have not do anything just to be aware of your thoughts,feelings,emotions.
we should imply vivakha,that this life will come to an end one day.and there is suffering in Death,birth,old age,sickness.we can not delay these things.so why we bothered.
To enter in the light darkness is necessary.To enter in a new dimension negative side is essential.our negative side as old age, depression,confusion,anger are necessary.so that we can take jump from it.so the perception of the evil as,sickness,birth, are necessary.
asaktir anabhisvangah,putradaragrhadisu,nityam ca samacittatvam,istanistopapattisu.--9
Non attachment,absence of clinging to son,wife,,home,and like and constant equal-mindednss to all desirable and undesirable happenings.

indifference to the objects of sense.Self effacement and perception of the evil of birth,death,old age,sickness,and pain.--8 solaka
indriyarthesu vairagyam,
anahamkara eva ca,
anmamrtyujaravyadhi
duhkhadosanudarsanam.--8 solaka
The meaning of this solaka is to live in this world but do not remain attached to the world.we should live a ego less life.The meaning of ego is that we do not know that we are separate from these visible elements such as body,mind,sense organs.we becomes one with these elements of field and do not know that we are knower of the field.If we becomes shakshi[witness] of these elements,than we will remain separate from the field.that is why j.krishanamurti used to say that observe every time to your mind,body,and activities.thus we can realize that blissful state,which is beyond these natural things[Field].j.said,"very observation is action".
But in vadanta we should practice for to separate real[knower of the field]and field.that is called vivakha.

If we can not sit for a long time how can we achieve our goal in meditation.yogis in India says that are impurities in our bodies which get discharged.Through exercises and yoga we can clean our body.this is a natural system. second step is mental yoga.By observation we can decrease our thoughts and increase our meditation and can achieve bliss[sat-chit-ananda].
Steadfastness--we can achieve stillness of mind by practice.Lord krishana said in Gita that we can achieve this stat by giving-up worldly desires and by long practice.
Self control-If our body,our sense objects are controlled than what remains left.Kings and dictators wants to control on other countries and people but they can not can control themselves.
Whatever routine method is adopted should remain consistently followed and remain in practice throwout.Distracted and withdrawn from all the feelings senses of pleasure and pain irrespective of wherever he lives.

Knowledge
Non violence-It is not to create problem for others,rather help them to solve it.
Patience-It is a very good formula for peacefully life.If we delay anger and do not response,we can see that quarrel comes to an end.Buddha said that patience is the highest form of asceticism and through it one can reach nirvana.for monks and nuns there are four qualities of patience and tolerance to maintain.
1-If someone pushes you around,you should be tolerant patient.
2-If someone shows anger to you,you should not respond with anger.
3-If someone embarrass and insult you,you should not answer back.
4-If someone hits you,you should not strike back.
Uprightness service to the teacher-In ordinary life we see that if we want to be a good mechanic we should join the institute of a learned person.we can not take more of his ability if we does not regard him.But here is not an ordinary teacher he is Guru[an enlightened soul.So if we serve him heartily.than we will be able to get more and more.we should surrender him so that he can fill our empty vessel.
Purity of physical body and mind-We should clean our body.we are going to meet God,and vehicle is our body.we should look after it by yoga exercises,music,dance so that we can fit our body for meditation.
