I'm still obsessed with the part of The Bhagavad Gita where Vishnu says "I am Arjuna" to the character Arjuna.
It follows logically from panentheism (the belief that God is in everything and beyond everything) that you, yes you, are divine. But it's crazy to see a manifestation of God meet a character face-to-face and say that Arjuna is a manifestation of God, too.

❤️ Krishna ❤️
Those quiet summer afternoons swim to his mind. Within, he feels the coolness of the arms of his friend that had rested so casually upon his.
His beautiful face looks back at him with a tired smile after a long day of hunting; the splashing waves of Yamuna caressing them both.
Those days of easy camaraderie seems as if it were from another yuga!
The brightness before him grows, drowning his surroundings, and illuminating them in turn. Time itself seems to have stopped to behold this spectacle!
As his friend engulfed in brilliant light swells like the high tide, Arjuna finds himself smaller than even his little toe.
He has thousands of hands holding various weapons, books and instruments. This all-encompassing form seems to engage every sense within Arjuna, all the while awakening a feeling that arises with an inexplicable urge to throw himself at his feet.
Arjuna's eyes turn upward as he witnesses all events of the past, present and future- occurring at the same time within his well-framed body.
He sees his brothers, and the lazy afternoons at Indraprastha.
He sees himself battling his brothers, and the nights with his wives. He saw all Gods within his friend.
The brightness is blinding, and yet he can discern the face of his beloved. Those familiar eyes smile back at him, brimming with compassion. Several heads decked in jewels adorn him.
One of them spews fire, one chants the divine scriptures, and yet another devours his enemies. His dark, curly hair flows in every direction, enveloping even the skies above.
All of a sudden everything vanishes with a blinding flash.
Arjuna finds himself kneeling at the feet of his friend, tears streaming down his face.
Krishna stands before him, holding his gandeeva.
As he arises, Krishna pulls him into an embrace, "I will always be here, Partha!" He whispers.
"Shall we start?" He smiles at Arjuna, the rein of his chariot held tight in his lotus hands.
Arjuna nods in silence.

Did You Know What Jesus Said Between His Ages 12 to 30? Lent Is The Time To Learn All That Jesus Said
Have you ever made a puzzle with half of the pieces missing? Do you get the complete picture if half the puzzle is made? What if others made up what was in the missing pieces because it was too powerful for you to know, according to them? What if others scared you and your eternal Soul by saying those missing pieces were apocryphal, which only means hidden knowledge, not anti-Jesus, nor…

“Fear not what is not real, never was and never will be. What is real, always was and cannot be destroyed.” - Bhagavad Gita
Atu 0 - The Fool Talon Abraxas
The Fool is the symbol of true innocence, a perfect state of joy and freedom, the sure feeling to be one with the spirit of life, at any time.
The Fool has the number 0, for someone ready to go in any direction, open to all possibilities. He belongs nowhere, has no past, but an infinite future. Every moment is a new beginning. In arabic letters the 0 has the shape of an egg, the symbol for the origin of life. The Fool is change, motion and the readiness to jump into life, with no cares ever. The Fool knows no difference between possibility and reality, the zero means a total lack of hope and fear, the Fool suspects and plans nothing. He reacts directly to the current situation, nothing is calculated, nothing is hidden.
In most decks the Fool is shown with an animal, as a symbol of nature, the animal soul in perfect harmony with the spirit that just follows its instincts. The Fool is courage, optimism and the belief in life and himself. When times are hard, and we suffer the pressure of ‘being reasonable’ or denying our instincts, the Fool reminds us that our inner person knows best what to do. 'Always trust your instincts’…

Descent to Death and Destruction: A comprehensive analysis of “Zero-day”
Disclaimer: This post is not meant to glorify or romanticize the film and the event it is based on. My heart goes out to all affected by these types of events, thank you.
“I am become death, destroyer of worlds.” a phrase originating from a portion of Lord Krishna’s dialogue from the Bhagavad Gita. With an archaic English structure, formed using the auxiliary verb “am” instead of “have”, forming a poetic expression that transcends grammatical correctness.
Saying “I am Death” emphasizes embodying death itself, a state of destruction, but it negates the process of becoming. Conversely, “I have become Death” focuses on the process of becoming but nullifies the state of already being. However, by saying “I am become Death,” you actively encapsulate both the process of undergoing and the current state of becoming. This means you have undergone and become one with creation and annihilation.
This concept can be applied to analyze the characters of “Zero Day,” the fictionalized troubled teenagers Andre Kriegman and Calvin Gabriel, who meticulously plan a school massacre. Throughout the film, each character undergoes a transformation fueled by hatred.
Firstly, Andre exemplifies the process of becoming and the active presence of becoming itself. Plagued with suppressed temperamental issues, Andre undergoes a plethora of emotions like any teenager has over the world and the uncontrollable circumstances that affect him. Yet two remain most prominent — anger and hate.
His meticulous planning creates a new layer of detachment, an approach that sees purpose in destruction due to the inherent lack of purpose other than vengeance. With constant efforts to alienate himself because he has already actively experienced it his whole life, Andre’s sense of identity develops from being victimized into being the perpetrator, a role distinct as a mere harbinger of death. Andre sees this as the foremost desirable identity, the immortalization of oneself as a destroyer. From the constant detachment from the world because of the understanding that no one has the capability to understand him, even if he does not understand himself, he undergoes the metamorphosis of becoming destruction itself. When he does finally become it, he has achieved a sense of purpose.
In contrast, we observe the opposite with Cal, where he does not focus on the process of becoming death but rather being death itself. There is complacency in trusting Andre’s plan with an underlying ideology of fulfilling his purpose, death. Death that is all-encompassing, both for those around him and himself — where this destruction not only consumes others but ultimately himself. Unlike Andre’s active pursuit of purpose, Cal is well aware of the fact that he does not have one, and with that, he accepts what Andre has to offer, believing it will give him one. As the film progresses, he embraces the role of the destroyer, indicating a loss of his former self and the complete adoption of his new, destructive identity. In following Andre, he unconsciously gains the purpose of a destroyer, however, it is still void for him to ever have one, hence why he killed himself after the event. Ultimately, this portrays his loss of sense of self in trying to find a sense of self.
In the context of Andre and Calvin, they do not simply perform an act of destruction; they become embodiments of destruction itself. This transformation is not a fleeting moment but an irreversible process leading to the massacre. The parallels between the phrase and their characters suggest their disconnection from normalcy and humanity. Andre and Cal are now unrecognizable, stripped of the humanity and identity they ever had; they are now “Death,” signifying a complete and terrifying metamorphosis.
This movie exemplifies the psychological impacts and effects of being mentally disturbed and unable to be helped. Where people experience a trauma so deeply nestled within them that it hinders them from recognizing the idea of getting better and moving on. They remain in perpetual limbo, filled with self-deprecation and hatred of others. Though the traumas they have faced are not easy to cope with, the denial of change and empathy intensifies the destruction felt by their torment and ultimately allows it to consume them whole.
They are now met with the very destruction they are affected by and consumed by it whole. Now having simultaneously become death and are death at this very point on.
They are become death.

☸ Untangling the Threads of Mahābhārata Concisely...
The Sagacity of Mahābhārata through the Chakra System
Disclaimer: The sole reference of my source has been taken from Paramahansa Yogananda's "The Bhagavad Gita"
Mahābhārata was formerly named Jayasaṃhitā, narrated by a great ancient seer Vedavyāsa(originally named Kṛṣṇadvaipāyana) and penned down by Lord Ganesha himself! Vyāsa is also regarded by many Hindus as a partial incarnation (Aṃśāvatāra ) of Vishnu.
According to Paramhansa Yogananda, the battlefield of Kurukshetra represents our own life. Dhṛtarāṣṭra is the blind and ignorant mind of ours which tends to give rise to 100 sense tendencies and desires. The 100 sons of Dhṛtarāṣṭrā are those sense tendencies. Pāṇḍu represents the wisdom, hence white. Hence Kurukṣetra is the battlefield of our mind, body and senses. It’s the battle of ignorance and wisdom, to find a way to rise up and get the status of Param Brahma.
Draupadī represents the-- Kuṇḍalinī and the Pāṇḍavas-- the five chakras of our body.
Sehdeva, the base chakra Mūlādhāra, means avoidance of attitude that prevents one from attaining Inner Peace.
Nakula represents the Svādhiṣṭhāna Chakra, which correlates with "Niyama" and emphasizes the importance of adhering to attitudes that bring inner peace.
The third chakra, Maṇipūra, unequivocally symbolizes Arjuna. In yoga philosophy, the awakening of Maṇipūra instils fiery self-control. Despite a fleeting moment of weakness at the sight of his own people on the battlefield, Arjuna remains an embodiment of self-discipline and courage.
Bhīma represents the Anāhata Chakra, located at the heart. When this chakra is awakened, it brings intense feelings that can lead us towards devotion or emotions. Bhīma embodies this intense feeling in everything he does, whether right or wrong.
Yudhiṣṭhira embodies the Viśuddha Chakra, which, when awakened, is believed to bring a profound sense of tranquillity, devotion, and moral integrity, as illustrated in the Mahābhārata.
The Āgyā/Ājñā chakra, positioned in the centre of the eyebrows, is associated with intuition and insight. It is believed to be the gateway to higher consciousness and spiritual awakening. During meditation, focusing on this chakra is said to facilitate a deep state of tranquillity and inner peace. In Mahābhārata this chakra is symbolized by none but Lord Kṛṣṇa himself, representing wisdom and divine perception.
The ancient game of dice in the Mahābhārata symbolizes the timeless battle between ego and desire, mirroring the internal conflicts we all face in our lives. The game serves as a profound metaphor, illustrating the precarious nature of spiritual growth. It teaches us that even when we have attained a heightened state of awareness, there is always the potential for regression. This spiritual journey demands unwavering strength, resolve, and a resolute spirit, which are essential for the eventual union with the Divine.

⚠ CAUTION ⚠-DON'T USE MINA SUBLIMINAL‼️+ EXPOSING MINA AND OLIVIA
Its my first and last post...i made it cause i just want to warn u all
Ignore errors cause english is not my first language
Stop following anyone blindly
I am not that anon but i think she got some mind bjt she wasted in proving this much
I m not going to type so much cause i m super lazzzzy i am just going to attach some pics if u have mind u will get it i am not going explain everything cause i am not your slave...anyways lets start
I am not going to use word Proof cuz Olivia had already used it so much 🤣🤣.... lets go with confirmations .....
Conformations
1. The profile pic of Olivia account that she claims is of mina *they are same person*
ORIGINAL PIC... DON'T ASK ME HOW I GET IT I M JUST LUCKY 🍀
Its from a girl name @melikesaygin11 on insta
Some of the post of her focus on the face and tatoo in pic 1
I will show u magic... Ready... hope u r not blind
2. As long as i remember Olivia said that she have some million followers on insta i found her account on friday 16 she have less then 50 followers but she deleted her account now but luckily i have taken screen shot of her all post (she claims that she posted her pic) and in the proof provided by her she have posted 88 topics letsssss seeeee......... Wait and watch
The 1st pic in the set is presented by her as proof but she hides her face
These are the major proofs but if u want more i am guiding u..
He mercedes google lens the all the pic u will find that the car is own by girl name laporscha... maybe some spelling is wrong
All her post she claims with mina just focus on the locket and go to the saygin account u will find it
Her nickname is jodie she attached her fb account there
Her subliminals are not safe i am not forcing u can use at ur own risk ur life ur rules
All her proof pic u can find it on tik tok of the saygin i dont find it because it is banned in my country.. Just go for old posts
Maybe i even got the real account(confirm from my side) of Olivia aka mina aka jodie not going to mention it cuz dont want increase the drama... but it have around 4k followers.. Where the hell are other 49996000 followers are..
Some of u be like- Now Olivia is exposed wht about mina?
Hmmm ..good question..
Girl in profile pic and posts are same wht about claims of Olivia
.. And mina agreed with every post of Olivia even reblogged it.. so.. Hope u get it. ITS ALL FAKE..
The question arises why i m doing this...
I am sanatani and its my dharma to guide everyone but to be honest i am least interested to warn u all as the someone has said that“Never wrestle with a pig because you'll both get dirty and the pig likes it." Positive energy is much more powerful than negative energy. If you stay positive, the negativity can't touch you...
SOME PEOPLE BE LIKE - WHT TO DO NOW?
Just little bit motivation for u all listen VOID is real and i m guarantee this because my religion is oldest and in vedas and upanishads they claims that one who attain shunyata or zero state aka void can manipulate the reality....***Even one of the holy book which is known as SHRIMAD BHAGAVAD-GITA it have divine knowledge given by lord KRISHNA who is the supreme power or almighty himself. If you will read it with perspective of void you will get the hidden message in few lines (***this is not proved cuz its my ideology).
U just have to let go everything
U dont have to listen subliminal or anything else just let go
Just in case If you are reading this i will think my energy is invested in a good place and my hour is not wasted..
Peace out..🕉️
@unicornjoking1111 @luckykiwiii101 dont be sad focus on ur self..

My notes from the key note speaker at VGS have just given me more roads to research. Some things were tossed out almost as asides like how fucking Blavatsky of Theosophy infamy, introduced Mahatma Gandhi to the Bhagavad Gita (actually true).
But the one I've been thinking on a lot is our concept of As Above So Below. The original Arabic is more like "That which is above is from that which is below and that which is below is from that which is above", which is a very different meaning and makes so much more sense. There is no "as" or "like". They aren't like each other, they are from each other.

this is a bhagavad gita hateblog. i don't respect it, i have read parts of it in the original sanskrit as well but most of my reading comes from the hindi translation my grandmother had, i think its an arya samaj standard. obviously the worst thing is that its central notion of karm (english speakers this is the word karma to you i hate that transliteration) is inextricably tied up with the mahabharat's conceptualisation of caste hierarchy and duty to once's betters. what most people do is reduce what krishna says to arjun as some kind of exhortation to do difficult things in general by stripping the context of what he wants to arjun to do, fight a war and do warcrimes. this is so dishonest! krishna is the original warhawk. the background stories of the naughty baby krishna are actually meant to be pr to launder easily the second worst of the big canonical gods. no 1 remains ram. nobody else can match that asshole.

Other people who meditate—can you do this, too? No one told me to expect that I would be able to do it. The Bhagavad Gita didn’t say anything about Carly Rae Jepsen
Is deeper sleep the greatest benefit of meditation? Is it health or a longer attention span? NO. The greatest benefit of meditation is that if a song gets stuck in my head I can instantly get it out. When a song instant repeats inside my brain, I simply focus on focus and allow “Boy Problems” by Carly Rae Jepsen to flow out of my mind
#I haven’t finished the bhagavad gita yet so if it turns out it does say something about carly rae jepsen#then I will recount this statement and formally apologize for spreading misinformation#I actually really like boy problems but any song is annoying if its stuck in your head long enough#meditation is a BROAD umbrella term#but this is a skill i developed by doing the stuff Swami Sarvapriyananda talks about#as well as considering stuff from the three pure land sutras#and some how to guides from Tricycle#meditation#spirituality#religion#commit to the bit#original post

"I am the taste of water, the light of the sun and moon. I am the syllable Om in the Vedas, the sound in ether, and ability in human beings.
I am the original fragrance of the earth, the radiance in fire. I am the life of all that lives, the penance of all ascetics.
I am the seed of all beings, the intelligence of the intelligent, and the power of the powerful.
I am the strength of the strong, free of passion and desire, and I am desire that accords with the spirit.
The states of goodness, passion and darkness come from me and are within me, though I am not in them."
-Bhagavad Gita, 7.8-12
