Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 11 Explained by Anandmurti Gurumaa

The complete DVD set of Shrimad Bhagavad Gita as explained by Anandmurti Gurumaa is available at www.gurumaa.com. This is a set of 71 DVDs chronicling the expositions of 18 chapters of Shrimad Bhagavad Gita by Anandmurti Gurumaa in Gita Gyana Yagya held in Gurumaa Ashram. Eighteen chapters are spread across 9 sets, each containing the description about the chapters included and the number of DVDs. In continuation to set 5 [chapter 9 & 10], revealing the opulence of supreme wisdom and the infinite glories of the Lord, this set contains the expositions of chapter 11 & 12 of Shrimad Bhagavad Gita by Anandmurti Gurumaa. These enlightening explanations establish the fact that faith and devotion are the most expedient means for developing divine qualities and attaining the divine vision and liberation from this material world. Eleventh chapter titled Vishwaswaroopadarsanam Yoga is about the darshan of universal form of Krishna - in fact an entirely new understanding of what exactly is meant by darshan of the Lord of the Universe, Krishna. In the explanation of this chapter Gurumaa tells that it was with the divine vision that Arjuna was able to have darshan of Krishna and it was the vividness of the words of Krishna which created the form perceived by Arjuna. Twelfth chapter titled Bhakti Yoga brings into light the two aspects of devotion i.e. nirguna or saguna. This chapter establishes the fact that until and unless you know Krishna in his real formless form, you cannot get established in him. You can play with the gross form of Krishna but the attainment of Krishna will happen only with gyana; gyana of his formless form and the same applies for the Guru. Gurumaa has also spoken on the different types of yogas: Gyana Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Hath Yoga giving in detail these paths. In the end, Gurumaa unveils the ephemeral and illusionary nature of this world to disillusion the seeker.
