    Future generations pay this homage to one who, in his own generation, has been extraordinarily religious in his conduct.
  • eadyidihhas quoted8 years ago
    one who has performed some extraordinary service of mankind
  • eadyidihhas quoted8 years ago
    The idea of a perfect incarnation is an after growth.
  • eadyidihhas quoted8 years ago
    Krishna of the Gita is perfection and right knowledge personified; but the picture is imaginary
  • Daria Rosyukhas quoted8 years ago
    No knowledge is to be found without seeking, no tranquility without travail, no happiness except through tribulation. Every seeker has, at one time or another, to pass through a conflict of duties, a heart-churning.
  • Daria Rosyukhas quoted8 years ago
    Mere knowledge of right and wrong will not make one fit for salvation.
  • Daria Rosyukhas quoted8 years ago
    In order that knowledge may not run riot, the author of the Gita has insisted on devotion accompanying it and has given it the first place. Knowledge without devotion will be like a misfire. Therefore, says the Gita, “Have devotion, and knowledge will follow.”
  • Daria Rosyukhas quoted8 years ago
    The object of the Gita appears to me to be that of showing the most excellent way to attain self-realization.
  • Daria Rosyukhas quoted8 years ago
    Man is not at peace with himself till he has become like unto God. The endeavour to reach this state is the supreme, the only ambition worth having. And this is self-realization. This self-realization is the subject of the Gita, as it is of all scriptures.
  • Daria Rosyukhas quoted8 years ago
    In Hinduism, incarnation is ascribed to one who has performed some extraordinary service of mankind. All embodied life is in reality an incarnation of God, but it is not usual to consider every living being an incarnation. Future generations pay this homage to one who, in his own generation, has been extraordinarily religious in his conduct.
