One asked about the ethical questions in the Bhagavad Gita, and Gandhi replied to this, and to other questions. Finally, he put together his comments and analysis of the lessons that Krishna was sharing with Arjuna in a little book, his most concise expression of this Hindu holy book as he understood it. After his autobiography, this may be the closest record of Gandhi's spiritual understanding. A sample chapter is available at www.bandannabooks.com/free/gandhisample.zip. For a different view on the Indian subcontinent, you might like Ghazals of Ghalib, a 19th-century poet who wrote in Persian and Urdu. His ghazals are witty, self-revealing, thoughtful. He lived through the Sepoy Mutiny and the British Raj, asking Queen Victoria to support poetry as the rajahs had done, by direct donation.… (mehr) |

Die Informationen stammen von der englischen "Wissenswertes"-Seite. Ändern, um den Eintrag der eigenen Sprache anzupassen. I would like to say to the diligent reader of my writings and
to others who are interested in them that I am not at all concerned
with appearing to be consistent. In my search after Truth
I have discarded many ideas and learned many new things.
Old as I am in age, I have no feeling that I have ceased to grow
inwardly or that my growth will stop at the dissolution of the
flesh. What I am concerned with is my readiness to obey the
call of Truth, my God, from moment to moment, and, therefore,
when anybody finds any inconsistency between any two
writings of mine, if he has still faith in my sanity, he would do
well to choose the later of the two on the same subject.  | |

Die Informationen stammen von der englischen "Wissenswertes"-Seite. Ändern, um den Eintrag der eigenen Sprache anzupassen. devotion (bhakti) means
attachment (asakti) to God. This is the royal road to
the cultivation of a selfless spirit. Therefore we are told at the
very beginning that devotion is the sovereign yoga and is easy
to practice. It is easy to practice if it takes hold of our heart,
but hard going if it does not. Hence it has been described as
something for which we have to offer our life itself as the price. | |

Die Informationen stammen von der englischen "Wissenswertes"-Seite. Ändern, um den Eintrag der eigenen Sprache anzupassen. After having thus reported to Dhritarashtra the dialogue
between Arjuna and Krishna, Sanjaya said, “Where there is
Krishna, the prince of yoga, and Arjuna with his bow and
arrows, there are prosperity, victory, happiness and fundamental
morality.”
Krishna, to whom the epithet “prince of yoga” has here been
applied, means pure knowledge based on spiritual experience,
and by referring to Arjuna as an archer it is suggested that
where there is action in accordance with such knowledge, the
doer obtains every wish that is not contrary to lofty morals. (Zum Anzeigen anklicken. Warnung: Enthält möglicherweise Spoiler.) | |
