Pàgina 24 - Who eat of food after their sacrifice Are quit of fault, but they that spread a feast All for themselves, eat sin and drink of sin. By food the living live; food comes of rain, And rain comes by the pious sacrifice, And sacrifice is paid with tithes of toil; Thus action is of Brahma, who is One, The Only, All-pervading; at all times Present in sacrifice.
Pàgina 31 - When Righteousness Declines, O Bharata ! when Wickedness Is strong, I rise, from age to age, and take Visible shape, and move a man with men, Succoring the good, thrusting the evil back, And setting Virtue on her seat again.
Pàgina 134 - And, - Him, the Highest, worshipping alway No longer grow at mercy of what breeze Of summer pleasure stirs the sleeping trees, What blast of tempest tears them, bough and stem To the eternal world pass such as these! Another Sun gleams there! another Moon! Another Light, - a Light which none shall lack Whose eyes once see; for those return no more They have attained My Uttermost Abode!
Pàgina 60 - Tis I who give them faith ! I am content ! The heart thus asking favor from its God, Darkened but ardent, hath the end it craves, The lesser blessing — but 'tis I who give ! Yet soon is withered what small fruit they reap Those men of little minds, who worship so, Go where they worship, passing with their gods. But Mine come unto me ! Blind are the eyes Which deem th...
Pàgina 28 - The babe unborn, so is the world of things Foiled, soiled, enclosed in this desire of flesh. The wise fall, caught in it; the unresting foe It is of wisdom, wearing countless forms, Fair but deceitful, subtle as a flame. Sense, mind, and reason — these, O Kunti's son! Are booty for it; in its play with these It maddens man, beguiling, blinding him. Therefore, thou noblest child of Bharata! Govern thy heart! Constrain th
Pàgina 121 - Know thou that Nature and the Spirit both Have no beginning ! Know that qualities And changes of them are by Nature wrought; That Nature puts to work the acting frame, But Spirit doth inform it, and so cause Feeling of pain and pleasure. Spirit, linked To moulded matter, entereth into bond With qualities by Nature framed, and, thus Married to matter, breeds the birth again In good or evil...
Pàgina 9 - Never the spirit was born ; the spirit shall cease to be never ; Never was time it was not ; End and Beginning are dreams ! Birthless and deathless and changeless remaineth the spirit for ever ; Death hath not touched it at all, dead though the house of it seems...
Pàgina 56 - CHAPTER VII KRISHNA : Learn now, dear Prince! how, if thy soul be set Ever on Me — still exercising Yog, Still making Me thy Refuge — thou shalt come Most surely unto perfect hold of Me. I will declare to thee that utmost lore, Whole and particular, which, when thou knowest, Leaveth no more to know here in this world. Of many thousand mortals, one, perchance, Striveth for Truth; and of those few that strive — Nay, and rise high — one only — here and there ^ Knoweth Me, as I am, the very...
Pàgina 101 - Those heroes great and brave Pour, in unending streams, with helpless motion ! Like moths which in the night Flutter towards a light, Drawn to their fiery doom, flying and dying, So to their death still throng, Blind, dazzled, borne along Ceaselessly...
Pàgina 123 - Plant or still seed — know, what is there hath grown By bond of Matter and of Spirit: Know He sees indeed who sees in all alike The living, lordly Soul; the Soul Supreme, Imperishable amid the Perishing: For, whoso thus beholds, in every place, In every form, the same, one, Living Life, Doth no more wrongfulness unto himself, But goes the highest road which brings to bliss.
