Important Verses of Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7
Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj has done a translation of Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 which clarifies that only foolish people worship three Gunas ie. Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva; who do not let living beings become liberated from Kaal’s trap. Even the worship of their father, that is Kaal Brahm (chanting ‘OM’ mantra) is useless since seekers remain in recurrence. Only true worship of Almighty Kabir can liberate innocent and ignorant souls from the web of Kaal.
Analysis: In this Chapter 7 Verse no. 12 to 15 and 20 to 23 it is said that it is meaningless to perform devotion to all the three qualities i.e. Rajgun Brahma Ji, Satgun Vishnu, Tamgun Shiva Ji, and other gods and goddesses consider them to be respectable. Those who do their devotion are called demonic, lowest amongst men, evil-doers, foolish people.
The giver of the knowledge of Gita in Chapter 7 Verse 16-18 has given information of his devotees and the attainment with his devotion. He has said that even my i.e. Brahm’s devotion (bhakti) is done by four types of devotees;
- Aart
- Artharthi
- Jigyasu
- Gyani.
Amongst these Gyani is superior, is very dear to me because he does not worship other gods. He worships only me; Brahm. But due to a lack of true spiritual knowledge that humble soul remains in my inferior; means very bad attainment (salvation) because the speaker of Gita’s knowledge has said in Gita Chapter 4 Verse 5, Gita Chapter 2 Verse 12, Gita Chapter 10 Verse 2 that I am mortal because my birth-death also happen. Due to this reason, the birth and death will always remain of his seekers. Therefore, the narrator of Gita’s knowledge has told in Gita Chapter 18 Verse 62, to go in the refuge of another God other than me and has said that with the grace of only that Supreme God you will attain eternal peace and the Sanatan ultimate abode (Shashwatam Sthanam). This is to ponder that as long as birth-death will remain, till then creatures cannot be at peace. The pain of Karmas will last forever. When birth-death will finish forever then only there will be eternal peace.
In the Gita Chapter 7 Verse 19, it is said that a saint who tells the devotion and glory of that Supreme God, that is, Vasudeva, is extremely rare. In Verse 29 of the same Chapter 7 of the Gita, the knowledge giver of Gita has told about the same Vasudeva. It is said that 'those who take the shelter of my knowledge and understand the true spiritual knowledge from the enlightened saint, are doing the spiritual practice of that Supreme God; only try to get rid of ‘Jara’ (old age), and ‘maran’ (death). They know ‘Tat Brahm’ the whole spirituality and complete deeds. In Gita Chapter 8 Verse 1, to resolve his doubt Arjun questioned the knowledge giver of Gita that ‘what is Tat Brahm?’. The Gita narrator answered this in Chapter 8 Verse 3, 8, 9, 10, 20, 21, 22 that ‘He is Param Akshar Brahm’. He in reality is an immortal God who has created all creatures and the whole universe. Who never gets destroyed even after the destruction of all beings. His worshipper attains Him only.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verses 1-12
After Gaining This Knowledge There is Nothing More to Know
In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 1 to 12, it is said that Arjun, whosoever is engaged in me (Brahm) with full attachment and the knowledge by which my supreme devotee will become fully knowledgeable, by this knowledge he will come to know that what is the state of everyone. He will become acquainted with the state of Sri Brahma Ji, Sri Vishnu Ji, and Sri Shiv Ji, and Brahm. And on finding a Complete Saint will endeavor to do the devotion of Tat Brahm (the Supreme God). After understanding this knowledge there would be nothing else to know. Now I will impart that knowledge. Of thousands of devotees, one makes an effort to attain God who is fully acquainted with me that actually; I am Kaal. Then that devotee strives hard to become free from the cycle of birth-death. It is also evident in Sri Devi Bhagwat Mahapuran, published from Gita Press Gorakhpur, edited by Sri Hanuman Prasaad Poddar, Chiman Lal Goswami, on page 123. It is written that God Shiv, while praising Durga (Prakriti Devi) said, “Shive! You are very smart in the creation of the world, mother! Earth, water, air, sky, fire, sense of knowledge, sense of action, intellect, mind, and pride – all these are you only. Your Gunas are always competent in the creation, preservation, and destruction of this world. We (Brahma, Vishnu, Shankar) born of the same three Gunas are always eager to work according to the regulations.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 4-6
It has been clarified in Gita Chapter 7 Verse 4-6 that my eight types of Maya which are divided into eight parts – which are the five elements and the three (mind, intellect, pride) – are eight parts. These are cooperative in the creation of all the living beings like, due to mind, a living being develops numerous desires. Desire only is the cause of birth. A gross body (which is visible to naked eyes) is made up of the five elements and the subtle body (which is not visible to the naked eyes) is made by the cooperation of mind, intellect, and pride. And Durga (Prakriti) herself by forming other three forms of her, Mahalakshmi, Mahasavitri and Mahagauri, with the cooperation of Kaal (Brahm), gives birth to the three sons; Sri Brahma Ji endowed with Rajgun, Sri Vishnu Ji endowed with Satgun, and Sri Shiv Ji endowed with Tamgun. Then by creating a maze (by doing forgery) creates another three female forms of her Savitri, Laxmi, and Gauri and after marrying the three gods (Sri Brahma Ji, Sri Vishnu Ji, and Sri Shiv Ji) gives rise to Kaal’s living beings. One who is Chetan Prakriti (Sheranwali), with her cooperation Kaal gives rise to all living beings. Evidence is in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 14 Verse 3 to 5. The Gita narrator says ‘I am the cause of the destruction and production of all the living beings of the world. (Because Kaal has to consume one lakh human beings every day). In the seventh Verse, he said that this whole world is entangled in me (Brahm). Kabir Sahib Ji Maharaj says that
Sur nar munijan tetis karodi |
bandhe sab Jyoti Niranjan dori ||
Meaning: 33 crore gods, 88 thousand saints, and all living beings are tied in the Karma form rope of Kaal.
Important: It has been clarified in Gita Chapter 14 Verse 3-5, the knowledge giver of Gita has told that:-
Gita Chapter 14 Verse 3: (Bharat) Oh Arjun! (mm) my (mahat’) Primeval Prakriti i.e. Durga, of all the living beings (yoniH) is the womb, and (aham’ Brahm) I, Brahm-Kaal (tasmin’) in that womb (garbham’) seed (dadhaami) place/impregnate (tatH) by that union (sarvbhootaanaam’) all the living beings (sambhavH) birth (bhavti) takes place. (3)
Gita Chapter 14 Verse 4: (Kauntey) Oh Arjun! (sarvyonishu) in all the wombs (yaaH) whatever (moortayH) embodied beings (sambhavanti) are born (mahat’) the Primeval Prakriti (taasaam’) of all those (yoniH) is the mother who conceives them and (aham’ Brahm’) I, Brahm-Kaal (beejprdH) the seed-giving (pita) am the father. (4)
Gita Chapter 14 Verse 5: (Mahabaho) O Arjun! (satvam’) Satvagun (rajH) Rajogun (tamH) Tamogun (iti) these (prkritisambhvaaH) born of Prakriti; means Durga Ashtangi (gunaH) three Gunas (avyyam’) eternal (dehinm’) soul (dehe) to the body of different creatures (nibadhanti) bind according to various Karmas. (5)
It is clear from these verses that Goddess Durga and Kaal Brahm by husband-wife act produce Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiv Ji. In the 3rd Verse of Shri Devi Mahapuran, in Verse 12 of Chapter 5, it is clear that Durga maintains an intimate relationship (Raman) with her husband Kaal Brahm. You will read the proof of this further in the summary of Chapter 7.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 7-11
In Gita Chapter 7 Verse 7-11 Brahm says that I am flavor, the characteristic of water, I am light, and am the sacred syllable (Pranav) Omkaar (OM) in Vedas. I am the superior most among humans and know me only as the cause of all the living beings (a being in the gross and subtle body). The brilliance of the brilliant is also from me. I (Kaal) am the intelligence of the intelligent (whenever I wish, I grant them wisdom and whenever I wish, I corrupt their wisdom) and also the austerity of the ascetics. Because he grants kingdom to the ascetics and there also, it is only the mind (Kaal) who enjoys it. I (Kaal) am the strength of the powerful and am the sex present in all the living beings. Like, previously, after giving strength to Arjun made him a warrior. Won the battle; Arjun killed the greatest of the warriors and then Kaal took the strength away. When God Sri Krishna was killed by a hunter, then Arjun went to Dwarika to bring the Gopis (16000 mistresses of Krishna Ji) who became a widow after the death of all Yadavs. Arjun went to bring the wives of Yadav from Dwarka to his capital, Indraprastha. On the way, Arjun was beaten by the Bheels. They also looted the gopis and took some Gopis with them. At that time Kaal rendered Arjun powerless. Because of which Arjun could not even move the ‘Gandeev’ bow.
Second Example: At the time, Sita Ji was abducted by the King of Lanka; Ravana. At that time, Shri Ram was wandering Jungle to Jungle in search of Sita Ji. He did not know who had taken his wife Sita Ji? Where is she? Because Kaal Brahm kept his intellect closed. At the same time, Parvati Ji (wife of ShivaJi) came to take the examination of Shri Ramchandra Ji acquiring the form of Sita Ji, then Shri Ram recognized that you are Parvati. At that time, Kaal Brahm i.e. the knowledge giver of Gita opened the intellect of Shri Ramchandra (Shri Vishnu). Therefore, here in Verse 10,11, it is said that the power of the powerful and the wisdom of the wise are in my hands.
What are the Three Gunas? With Evidence
The three Gunas (qualities) are Rajgun-Brahma Ji, Satgun-Vishnu Ji, and Tamgun Shiv Ji. They have taken birth from Brahm (Kaal) and Prakriti (Durga) and the trio are mortal.
Evidence: - Sri Shiv Mahapuran, published from Gitapress Gorakhpur, edited by Sri Hanuman Prasad Poddar, on page no. 110, Bhagavad Gita Chapter 9, Rudra Sanhita
“So, Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva, the three gods have qualities, but Shiv (Brahm-Kaal) is said to be beyond qualities.”
Second evidence: - Shrimad Devibhagwat Puran, published from Gitapress Gorakhpur, edited by Sri Hanuman Prasad Poddar and Chiman Lal Goswami, Skand 3, Bhagavad Gita Chapter 5, page no.123: -
God Vishnu prayed to Durga: said that ‘I (Vishnu), Brahma, and Shankar are existing by your grace. We have birth and death. We are not eternal. Only you are eternal, are the mother of the world (Jagat Janani), are Prakriti, and Goddess Sanatani (eternal/existing for time immemorial). God Shiv said: If god Brahma and god Vishnu have taken birth from you, then am I, Shankar, who was born after them and performed Tamoguni Leela (divine play), not your son? Henceforth, you are my mother too. Your Gunas are always present everywhere in this world’s creation, preservation, and destruction. The three of us (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shankar) born of these three Gunas (qualities) are always at work.
Aforesaid evidence is from Shri DeviMahapurana translated only in Hindi, in which certain facts have been hidden. So, look at this evidence: Shrimad Devi Bhagwat Mahapurana Subhashtikam Smahatyam, Khemraj Shri Krishan Das, Prakash Mumbai. The Sanskrit translation has been done along with Hindi. Skand 3 Chapter 4 page 10, Verse 42:-
Brahma:- Aham MaheshwarH fil te prabhawatsarve vyaM jani na yada tu nityaH, Ke anye suraH shatmakh pramukhaH ch nitya nitya twamev janani PrakritiH Purana (42)
Hindi Translation: ‘Oh Mother! Brahma, I, (Vishnu), and Shiva take birth from your influence only, we are not eternal/immortal, then how can other Indra, etc. gods be eternal. Only you are immortal, are Prakriti and Sanatani Devi.
Page 11-12, Chapter 5, Verse 8:-
Yadi dayardramna na sadambike kathamhaM vihitH ch tamogunaH Kamaljshch rajogunsambhavH suvihitH kimu satvguno HariH (8)
God Shankar said, “Oh Mother! If you are kind to us then why did you make me Tamogun, why did you make Brahma, who has originated from lotus, Rajgun, and why did you make Vishnu, Satguna?” i.e. why did you engage us in the evil deed of the birth and death of living beings?
Evidence-Husband of Goddess Durga
Verse 12: Ramayse swapatiM purushM sada tav gatiM na hi vih vid am shive (12)
Hindi Translation: ‘You (Durga) are always procreating (reproduction by copulation) with your husband purush i.e. Kaal God. Nobody knows your state’.
Shrimad Devi Bhagavata Purana, Third Skand, page no. 14, Adhyay 5 Shlok 43
Lord Brahma asks Mother Durga –
Ekameva dwitiyM yat Brahm veda vadanti vae Sa kiM tvam vaaapyasau va kiM sandehM vinivartay ||43||
Hindi Translation: ‘The one, who has been called as unequaled only one Purna Brahm in the Vedas, is that you only or is it someone else? Dispel this doubt of mine. To this Durga Ji replies to Lord Brahma –
Devyuvaach sadaektvaM na bhedosti sarvdaev mamaasya ch||
Yo sau saahamahM yosau bhedosti mativibhrmaat ||2||

Hindi Translation: ‘What he is, I am; what I am, he is. Because of mental confusion, a difference is perceived’ ||2||
The subtle difference between the two of us, who knows this, is Matimaan, that is, enlightened, he is isolated from the world and is liberated, there is no doubt in this ||3||
Sumarnaadarshnam tubhyam dasye hum vishme sthite ||

Hindi Translation: During crisis, I will appear only by remembrance, Gods! Always remember me with the power of the divine; Sanatan God ||80|| With the remembrance of both; you will get the necessary accomplishment, Brahma Ji said that in this way, because of sacraments she gave us strength and bade farewell ||81||. Mahalakshmi for Vishnu, Mahakali for Shiv, and gave Mahasaraswati to me and bade farewell ||82||
Mm chaev shareerM vae sootramityabhidheeyate sthoolM shareerM vakshyami brahmanH parmatmanH ||83||
Hindi Translation: Durga says - My body is said to be like a beautiful cloth; God Brahm is said to have a material body ||83||
It has been written in Sanchipt Markandeya Purana on page 123 that Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva are three powers. These are three Gods and three Gunas (qualities)”
Conclusion: It is clear from the above-mentioned evidence that in Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12-15, there is a description of Trigunmaye Maya, these three Gunas means three gods which are just confined to their worship. These are demonic, lowest amongst men, evil-doers, foolish people. They do not worship me, means Kaal, the giver of the knowledge of Gita.
Summary Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12-15
Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva (Trigun Maya) do not let the Living Being Become Liberated
It has been said in Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12-15 that Rajgun Brahma, Satgun Vishnu, and Tamgun Shiv forms; who worship Trigunmayi Maya are demonic, lowest amongst men, evil-doers, foolish people.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12
Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12: Whatever is happening from the three Gunas, consider it to be happening from me only. As the cause of the act of production by Rajgun (Brahma), preservation by Satgun (Vishnu) and destruction by Tamgun (Shiv) is Kaal God only. Then he said that I do not exist within them. Because Kaal is quite far away (resides in the twenty-first Brahmand in Nijlok (private place)) but Kaal only enjoys in the form of ‘mun’ (mind) and operates all the living beings and Sri Brahma Ji, Sri Vishnu Ji, and Sri Shiv Ji like a machine through a remote.
I am the Lord in only 21 universes. In holy Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12 to 15, Brahm is stating that Arjun! Now I will impart that knowledge to you, knowing which, there would be nothing else left to know. The narrator of Gita, Brahm, is saying that for the living beings of my twenty-one Brahmands the scripture-based sadhana begins from my worship only, which has been mentioned in the Vedas. The intellect of living beings, who are in my jurisdiction, is in my hand. I am the only master in the twenty-one Brahmands. Therefore, (Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12 to 15) whatever is happening through the three Gunas (creation of living beings by Rajgun-Brahma Ji, preservation by Satgun-Vishnu Ji, destruction byTamgun-Shiv Ji) – I (Brahm-Kaal) am only its main cause. (Because Kaal has the curse of killing one-lakh human beings and eating their grime). Those seekers who instead of doing my (Brahm’s) sadhana, perform sadhana of the Trigunmayi Maya (Rajgun-Brahma Ji, Satgun-Vishnu Ji, and Tamgun-Shiv Ji) and obtain the short lived benefits, consequently suffer more; besides has indicated that I (Brahm-Kaal) can give more benefits than these, but these foolish seekers because of the absence of Tatvagyan (the absolute knowledge) keep doing sadhana of only these three Gunas (Rajgun-Brahma Ji, Satgun-Vishnu Ji, and Tamgun-Shiv Ji). Their intellect is limited to only these three gods. Therefore, those with demonic nature, lowest among men, those who do evil acts like performing sadhana opposite to the scriptures, these fools do not worship me (Brahm). This evidence is also in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 16 Verse 4 to 20 and 23, 24; Bhagavad Gita Chapter 17 Verse 2 to 14 and also in 19 and 20. The same evidence is in Gita Chapter 7 Verse 20 to 23.
Please Ponder: Ravan did devotion considering God Shiva as Mritunjay (who has won over death), ajar-amar (immortal), and Sarveshwar (Lord of all, the Supreme Being), offered his head by beheading himself ten times. As a result of which Ravan obtained ten heads during the battle, but did not get liberated; he was called a demon. This fault is of Ravan’s Gurudev. That fool (a quack) did not understand the Vedas properly and from his thought, described God Shiv only as the Supreme God, and the innocent soul, Ravan, trusted his fake Gurudev and ruined his life and family.
Once, there was a devotee named Bhasmagiri, who, considering Shiv Ji (Tamgun) as his deity, did sadhana for 12 years in Sheershaasan (headstand), bound Shiv Ji with a promise and obtained Bhasmkanda (a bracelet which when kept over someone’s head turns that person into ashes on saying ‘Bhasm’). Tried to kill God Shiv. The aim was that after obtaining Bhasmkanda, I will kill God Shiv Ji and make Parvati Ji my wife. God Sri Shiv Ji ran in fear. Then, Sri Vishnu Ji made him do Gandath dance and turned him into ashes with the same Bhasmkanda. That worshipper of Shiv Ji (tamgun) came to be known as a demon. Hiranyakashipu worshipped God Brahma Ji (Rajgun) and came to be known as a demon.
Once upon a time (from today year 2006), around 325 years ago, there was an occasion of Kumbh festival (of those whose sadhana is opposite to the scriptures) on the steps of Har in the old Haridwar. All the sages (worshippers of the Trigun/the three Gunas) reached there to take bath. Giri, Puri, Naath, Naga, etc. are the worshippers of God Sri Shiv Ji (Tamgun), and Vaishno are worshippers of God Sri Vishnu Ji (Satgun). An intense fight broke out between Naga and Vaishno sages on the issue of taking bath first. Approximately 25000 (twenty-five thousand) Trigun (of the three Gunas) worshippers died. Please think to yourself; that a person who can cause a massacre on a trivial matter is a saint or a demon?. Even if an ordinary man is taking bath somewhere and someone comes and requests for someplace to bathe, then for the sake of courtesy, one normally says, “Come, you also take bath here”, and try to accommodate the other person. Therefore, in holy Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12 to 15, it is said that those whose knowledge has been stolen by the pooja of my Trigunmayi Maya (Rajgun-Brahma Ji, Satgun-Vishnu Ji, and Tamgun-Shiv Ji), are hungry for pride and praise, have demonic nature, are lowest among men i.e. their conduct is even worse than a common man, miscreants, fools, they do not even do my devotion (bhakti).
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 16-18
Why did the Gita Narrator call the Attainment from His Worship as Inferior?
In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 16 to 18, God (Brahm), who is the narrator of Holy Gita Ji, is stating that four types of seekers do my bhakti (Brahm sadhana). First is Artharthi (who desires wealth), who keeps doing Jantar-Mantar and hawan etc by Ved mantras only. Second, Aart, (who keep doing Jantar-Mantar and hawan by Ved mantras to ward off misfortunes); third, Jigyasu, who intend to know the knowledge of God; who only by accumulating knowledge become speakers, and based on excellence in knowledge become superior to others, become learned and because of arrogance become devoid of bhakti. Fourth is Gyani; those devotees who have come to know that one does not get a human body again and again. If one does not do the sadhana of God in this, then life will go in vain. Then studied the Vedas, from which came to know that above the three Gunas (Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva Ji), Brahm (Kshar Purush), and ParBrahm (Akshar Purush) is Purna Brahm and one should only do His bhakti and not of the other gods. Those knowledgeable, noble souls like me and I like them because rising above the three Gunas (Rajgun-Brahma, Satgun-Vishnu, Tamgun-Shiv Ji) at least they started doing my (Brahm) sadhana, which is better than that of the other gods, but they, based on their discussions, kept doing sadhana for years with ‘OM’ Naam which is the mantra in the Vedas only for Brahm’s sadhana considering it to be the mantra of the Purna Brahm. They did not attain god but attain other supernatural powers. Because they did not find the Tatvadarshi sant mentioned in Holy Bhagavad Gita Chapter 4 Verse 34 and in Holy Yajurveda Chapter 40 Mantra 10, who tells about the sadhana of Purna Brahm with three mantras; therefore, even the Gyanis by doing Brahm (Kaal) sadhana remained in the cycle of birth and death because the giver of the knowledge of Gita in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 11 Verse 32 has said ‘I am Kaal’. In Verse 47-48 he says that this is my original form which apart from you no one else had seen before. Being pleased with you, I have appeared to you. I; in this universal form can neither be seen by the study of Vedas, nor by Yagyas, and nor by charity, nor by rituals, and nor by severe penances by anyone other than you. Apart from you, no one can see me by any sadhana. The meaning is; God cannot be attained by the method of worship mentioned in Vedas.
This had been the reason that the sages worshipped according to Vedas, but Kaal Brahm could not be seen because the giver of the knowledge of Gita in Gita Chapter 7 Verse 24-25 has clarified that ‘this is my eternal, inferior law that I do not appear before anyone in my original Kaal form’.
Evidence: A learned, noble soul, Maharishi Chunak Ji read the Vedas and considering ‘OM’ to be the mantra for bhakti of one Supreme God, did sadhana for years by doing Jaap of this Naam. There was a Mandhata Chakravarti king (a Chakravarti king is one who rules over the whole Earth). He challenged the kings under him to fight. He tied a signboard in the neck of a horse and showed it around the entire kingdom. The bet was that he who does not accept the subjection to king Mandhata will have to fight. He should capture this Horse. Nobody captured the Horse. Great sage Chunak Ji became aware of this that the king has become very arrogant. He said that I accept the fight with this king. The fight started. The Mandhata King had an army of 72 crore soldiers. He divided it into four parts and attacked Maharishi Chunak with one division (18 crore soldiers) of the army. On the other hand, Chunak Ji made four bombs out of his earnings of sadhana and destroyed all the four divisions of the army of the king.
Important: By devotion of Sri Brahma Ji, Sri Vishnu Ji, Sri Shiv Ji, Brahm, and ParBrahm, one has to bear the fruits of both sins as well as the virtuous deeds; virtuous deeds in Heaven and sins in Hell and has to bear numerous sufferings in the bodies of 84 lakh life forms. For instance, the learned soul, Sri Chunak Ji, collected the earnings of Jaap of ‘OM’ Naam and finished some in supernatural power (by forming four bombs); as a result of which was known as Maharishi. After bearing the fruit of some sadhana in great Heaven will then go to Hell, and then will bear hardships one after another by acquiring the bodies of the 84 lakh species of life. And he will also have to bear the result of the killings of 72 crore soldiers, whom he had killed by the power of his word. Whether one kills someone with a weapon or with the word-like sword, God gives equal punishment to both. When Maharishi Chunak Ji’s soul will be in the body of a dog, he will have wounds in his head, and the souls of those soldiers will become worms and take their revenge by infesting it. Sometimes his leg will break and sometimes his hind limbs will become paralyzed and will only drag with forelimbs, and will definitely have to bear the sufferings of heat and cold and intolerable pain in different ways.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 18
Hence, Brahm (Kaal), the narrator of Holy Gita Ji, is himself saying in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 18 that all these knowledgeable souls are as such noble, but, because of not finding the Tattavdarshi Saint who tells about the real sadhana of the three mantras of the Supreme God, all these remained dependent on the hope of attaining only my (anuttamam') inferior most salvation; which means, even my sadhana is inferior/bad. Therefore, Holy Bhagavad Gita Chapter 18 Verse 62, has said that ‘Oh Arjun! Go in the refuge of that Supreme God in every respect. By only His grace, you will attain supreme peace and eternal, supreme abode (Satlok). Brahm (Kaal) narrated the Holy Gita Ji by entering into Sri Krishna’s body in a ghost-like manner. Then, several years later, Brahm (Kshar Purush) himself wrote Holy Gita Ji and Holy four Vedas by entering like a ghost into Maharishi Vyas Ji’s body. In these, the knowledge of – how does God look like, how to do His bhakti and what will one achieve – is complete. But the way of worship is only up to Brahm (Kshar Purush) i.e. Jyoti Niranjan-Kaal.
For the devotion of the Supreme God (Purna Brahm), the narrator of Gita, Brahm Kaal is telling in Holy Bhagavad Gita Chapter 4 Verse 34 that search the enlightened saint to know about the method of devotion and attainment of complete God then whatever he tells, do accordingly. The narrator of pious Gita’s knowledge; God has said ‘I do not know a complete knowledge and devotional method of the Supreme God’. Regarding his worship he has told in Gita Chapter 8 Verse 13, that ‘OM’ is the only one-word for my bhakti; by chanting it unto the last breath (twajan deham) you will attain my ultimate salvation. Then in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 18, has said that the God-loving souls did not find a Tattavdarshi saint, who knows the sadhana of the Purna Brahm, and therefore, those noble souls are dependent on my inferior (anuttmaam) most ultimate salvation. (God, the narrator of Holy Gita, is himself saying that the salvation i.e. liberation obtained from my sadhana is also the most inferior). In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 15 from Verse 1 to 4, has said that this is an upside-down world-like hanging tree, whose root is Purna Brahm i.e. Aadi Purush Parmeshwar and below are the three Gunas- (Rajgun-Brahma Ji, Satgun-Vishnu Ji, and Tamgun-Shiv Ji) -like branches’.
Brahm, entered like a ghost in Sri Krishna’s body, is saying that I do not know the complete knowledge of this creation of nature. Therefore, here in this discussion of Gita, I do not have full information. A saint, who has full knowledge of the above-mentioned world-like tree i.e. on the subject of the creation of nature, will give a distinct description of the root, trunk, branches, and the smaller branches; know him as (vedvit) Tattavdarshi. Then after taking updesh/spiritual instruction from that completely knowledgeable (Tatvadarshi) saint, one should properly search for that Param Pad Parmeshwar (Supreme God). Having gone where, one never has birth-death i.e. one attains eternal salvation, and even I (God Brahm, the narrator of Gita, is saying that) am surrendered to that Primeval Supreme God (Param Purush Parmeshwar). Therefore, one should only do sumiran of that Purna Parmatma (SatPurush) with full determination.
In Holy Bhagavad Gita Chapter 4 Verse 5, the narrator of Gita, God (Brahm) is saying that ‘Oh Arjun! You and I have had many births i.e. it is clear that Brahm is also a perishable God (Kshar Purush). The same evidence is in Gita Chapter 2 Verse 12, it is said that ‘O Arjun! You, I and all these soldiers were born earlier as well and will be born in future also’. It has been said in Gita Chapter 10 Verse 2, that neither the gods nor Maharishis (great sages) knows about my origin (birth) because all these have originated from me. With this, it is clear that Brahm is a mortal god (Kshar Purush). Therefore, in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 15 Verse 16-17, there is a distinct description of the three Gods – two Gods are Kshar Purush (Perishable God – Brahm) and Akshar Purush (Imperishable God–Akshar Brahm); but, in reality, imperishable/immortal is another God, other than these two, who is actually known as the Eternal Parmatma Parmeshwar (Supreme God). Like, a white cup made up of clay which is entirely impermanent, similarly, Brahm (Kshar Purush) and the living beings of his twenty-one Brahmands are perishable. The second cup made up of steel also rusts and destroys. In comparison to the white cup made up of clay, the cup made up of steel lasts long but destroys (it is mortal). Therefore, this much imperishable is the cup of steel; similarly, Akshar Purush (ParBrahm) and the living beings of his seven sankh Brahmands, even though appear to be imperishable, are perishable i.e. in reality, are not imperishable. The third cup is of gold which actually is made up of an imperishable metal. Its existence never ends. Likewise, in reality, Purna Brahm (Param Akshar Purush) and the hans-souls (deva) residing in His asankh (infinite) Brahmands is eternal, and He only, by entering in the three worlds/loks fosters everyone. KavirDev i.e. God Kabir has Himself described the nature created by Him.
Kabir, Akshar Purush ek ped hai, Niranjan vaaki daar |
Teeno deva shaakha hain, paat roop sansaar ||
Kabir hum hi Alakh Allah hai, mool roop Kartar |
Anant koti Brahmand ka, mein hi Sirjanhar ||
Akshar Purush (ParBrahm) is the trunk of the upside-down hanging tree and Jyoti Niranjan (Kshar Purush-Brahm) is a thick branch, and beyond that thick branch, are three branches – the three Gunas (Rajgun-Brahma Ji, Satgun-Vishnu Ji, and Tamgun-Shiv Ji). But the base (roots) is Purna Purush (Param Akshar Brahm, SatPurush). The tree receives nutrition from the roots i.e. from Purna Brahm. Therefore, the nurturer of the lineage is only that Param Akshar Brahm, whose evidence is given in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 8 Verse 1 to 3. Arjun asked – ‘O God! Who is that ‘Tat Brahm? About whom you have referred in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 29 that after knowing Tat Brahm (that Supreme God) and the entire (spiritual) adhyatm knowledge (Tattavgyan), a devotee only strives to become free from birth-death. Brahm, narrating the Holy Gita, has answered in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 8 Verse 3, that He is Param Akshar Brahm (Purna Brahm). In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 8 Verse 6, has said that it is a rule that in the final moments while remembering whichever God (Brahm, ParBrahm, Purna Brahm), a devotee leaves his body, he goes to him (that God) only.
Question: You have written incorrect meaning in the translation of Gita Chapter 7 Verse 18. You have written the meaning of “Anuttmaam” as “Ashreshth” (inferior) whereas, in the compound, the meaning of ‘Anuttam’ is ‘AtiUttam’ excellent, compared to whom there is no one better, regarding him/it, in compound the meaning of ‘Anuttam’ is ‘AtiUttam’ (very good). The other translators of Gita have done the correct meaning, have done the meaning of anuttam as atiuttam / very good.
Answer: Accepting this statement of yours to be true, I am requesting you that the giver of the knowledge of Gita is telling about his worship in Gita Adhyay 7 Shlok 16 to 18. In Gita Adhyay 7 Shlok 18 he is describing his worship as “Anuttam”, whose meaning according to your compound is that there is no better salvation than the salvation of the giver of the knowledge of Gita.
The giver of the knowledge of Gita, in Gita Adhyay 18 Shlok 62 and Adhyay 15 Shlok 4, is himself telling to go in the refuge of some other God. By only His grace supreme peace and the eternal place, the ever-lasting place of salvation i.e. Satyalok will be attained. About himself also, has said that I am also in His refuge only. One should worship that Supreme/Complete God alone, and has stated that one should attain the supreme state (Satyalok) of that Supreme God. Having gone where worshippers never return to this world i.e. their birth and death ends forever.
In Gita Adhyay 18 Shlok 46, 61-62, 64, 66; Adhyay 15 Shlok 4, 16-17; Adhyay 13 Shlok 12 to 17, 22 to 24, 27-28, 30-31, 34; Adhyay 5 Sloka 6 to 10, 13 to 21 and 24-25-26; Adhyay 6 Shlok 7, 19, 20, 25, 26-27; Adhyay 4 Shlok 31-32; Adhyay 8 Shlok 3, 8 to 10, 20 to 22; Adhyay 7 Shlok 19 to 29; Adhyay 14 Shlok 19 etc-etc Verses has mentioned about some other God than himself. It has been proved from this that there is some other God superior i.e. better than the giver of the knowledge of Gita. Like, in Gita Adhyay 15 Shlok 17, the giver of the knowledge of Gita has stated that “Uttam PurushH tu anyaH”, which means that the Supreme God is indeed someone else. Therefore, the salvation of i.e. salvation obtained from that Supreme God i.e. Superior most God will also be superior most. This is also proved from this that the salvation of that Supreme God i.e. Complete God is superior to the salvation of the giver of the knowledge of Gita. Therefore, the salvation of the giver of the knowledge of Gita is not superior. Superior means compared to which there is nothing more superior; so this adjective has also been proved wrong for the salvation of the giver of the knowledge of Gita. Because if there is some other God superior to the giver of the knowledge of Gita, then His salvation is also superior to that of the giver of the knowledge of Gita. It has been proved from this that in Gita Adhyay 7 Shlok 18, the meaning of “anuttam” is justified to be “inferior/bad” i.e. is correct. Other translators of Gita have written incorrect meanings, who have said and written the meaning of “anuttam” as “very good/superior most”.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 19
Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 19: In this mantra, Brahm (Kaal) is saying that even my sadhana is done by only a few; only a fortunate person does it after many births; otherwise, one’s intellect does not rise above the bhakti of the lower gods, Sri Brahma Ji, Sri Vishnu Ji, Sri Shiv Ji, and other gods, ghosts and pitras (spirits of deceased ancestors). But it is very difficult to find a saint who tells that only the Supreme God is worthy of being worshipped; He is the Creator of the whole universe; He only fosters and protects everyone, is the Almighty. In reality, He only is Vasudev. The meaning of Vasudev is ‘the Master of all’. Like, Sri Brahma Ji, Sri Vishnu Ji, and Sri Shiv Ji are ministers (lords) of one department each in one Brahmand. Sri Brahma Ji of Rajogun department, Sri Vishnu Ji of Satgun department, and Sri Shiv Ji of Tamgun department; they are not the masters of all i.e. are not Vasudev. Consider Brahm (Kaal) as a Chief Minister in the twenty-one Brahmands, which are under his control; he is not the master of all i.e. is not Vasudev. Seven shankh such Brahmands are of ParBrahm (Akshar Purush); he is the master of only seven sankh Brahmands; is not the master of all i.e. is not Vasudev. And Purna Brahm (Param Akshar Brahm – SatPurush) has infinite Brahmands. In reality, Purna Brahm is the Master of all i.e. is Vasudev. Just as, is the root (Purna Brahm) of the upside-down tree from which the whole trunk (Akshar Purush), bigger branch (Kaal-Brahm), and smaller branches (the three Gunas, Rajgun-Brahma, Satgun-Vishnu, and Tamgun-Shiv Ji) receive nutrition. Therefore, Purna Brahm only sustains everyone. A saint who gives this description is extremely rare. Only after finding him, one will attain complete liberation/salvation; otherwise, living beings will remain trapped in Kaal’s web.
Summary Gita Chapter 7 Verse 20-23
Only Foolish People Worship other Gods (Rajgun Brahma Ji, Satgun Vishnu Ji, and Tamgun Shiv Ji)
Special: Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 20-23, has a connection with Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12-15. Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 20, has a continuous connection with Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 15 in which it has been said that those whose knowledge has been stolen by the Trigun Maya (those who are limited to the pooja (worship) of Rajgun-Brahma Ji, Satgun-Vishnu Ji, Tamgun-Shiv Ji, and the short-lived happiness obtained from these), such inferior persons who have demonic nature, evil-doers and fools, even do not worship me.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 20
In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 20, it has been said that because of those material desires, those whose wisdom has been stolen away, they, inspired by their inherent nature, relying on the rule endowed with the darkness of ignorance, worship other gods.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 21
In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 21, it is said that the form of whichever god, a devotee wants to worship, I make that devotee’s faith firm in that particular God.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 22
In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 22, it is said that endowed with that faith, he worships that god and obtains the objects of his desire from that god, ordained by me alone. Like, a chief minister says that the lower officials are my servants only. I have given them some powers. The benefit which, those who are dependent on these (officials) receive, is also given by me only, but is not a complete benefit.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 23
It is mentioned in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 23 that, but that fruit attained by those slow-witted men is perishable. The worshippers of gods go to gods. (Madbhakt) Matavlambi, the devotees who do devotion according to the scriptures, attain me i.e. nobody is out of Kaal’s trap.
Important: - Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 20-23, has a continuous connection with Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12-15. In Verse 20 to 23, it has been said that whatever sadhana, of whichever pitra, ghost, gods-goddesses, etc, they perform by nature, I (Brahm-Kaal) only make those slow-witted people (devotees) attracted towards that particular god. Whatever benefits those ignorant devotees obtain from these gods, I (Kaal) only have given some powers to those gods. On that basis only, their (of the gods) worshippers will go to gods. But that pooja/way of worship of those foolish worshippers will soon take them to the 84 lakh births and those who worship me (Kaal), go to Tapatshila (the hot rock) and then to my great Heaven (Brahmlok), and thereafter, in the cycle of birth-death i.e. Brahm’s sadhana is much superior to that of god-goddesses and Brahma, Vishnu, Shiv, and Mother Durga. It has been said in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 8 Verse 16, that all those who have gone to Brahmlok are in recurrence.
Although the duration of stay in Heaven of a devotee, who has gone in the great Heaven, is one Kalp (age), after experiencing the pleasures of the salvation of the virtuous acts in the great Heaven, the sufferings in Hell and the lives of other living beings will remain. There is no complete liberation/salvation i.e. there is no freedom from Kaal’s trap.
It has been mentioned in Shri Vishnu Purana page 51, the first part, Chapter 12 Verse 93 that the duration of the salvation of Dhruv was one Kalp (age).
The duration of one age is one day of Brahma Ji, which means 1008 Chaturyuga. There are 43,20,000 human years in one Chaturyuga. According to Mathematics it's 4,35,35,60,000 years. After this, the cycle of the birth-death of Dhruv will start.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 24
Jyoti Niranjan (Kaal) Never Appears in a Form in a Gross Body (visible to naked eyes)
In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 24, God Brahm is saying that the fools do not know my very bad permanent nature (Kaal-form). They consider, the (unmanifested) invisible me, having appeared in form (manifested) in the form of Sri Krishna i.e. I am not Sri Krishna. The purport of ‘do not know my very bad eternal nature’ is that my nature as Kaal is to eat living beings; to make them donkeys, dogs, pigs; to give them various types of sufferings one after another and based on virtuous deeds, send them to Heaven; this is my never-ending (eternal) nature i.e. I am a real Kaal. I never appear in the form of Sri Krishna and Sri Ramchandra. This is my inferior, permanent and eternal policy. These gods have a body formed of Maya and these are sent by me alone and I (Kaal) keep performing all my tasks by entering into them.
Garib, anant koti avatar hain, Maya ke Govind |
Karta ho-ho kar avtare, bahut pade jam fand ||
Meaning: Lord Vishnu, Shri Brahma, and Lord Shiva form Govind means god; born of Kaal and Maya i.e. Durga, have been born in innumerable avatars. The naive creatures above the earth consider them to be the doers of all. But they complete their avatar time and according to their deeds remain in the cycle of birth and death.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 25
In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 25, the giver of the knowledge of Gita has said that I remain hidden by my (Yogmaya) supernatural power and reside in my highest private place in my twenty-first Brahmand. Therefore, I am not visible. Hence, has said that ‘I never take birth i.e. never appear in shape in a gross body in the form from a mother’s womb-like Sri Krishna. This foolish world does not know this eternal policy i.e. these ignorant groups of people consider me to be Krishna; I am not Krishna and remain unmanifested with my supernatural powers. It is clear from this that Kaal only is speaking by entering into Sri Krishna’s body. Otherwise, Sri Krishna was already present in a form in front of Arjun. It would not have been right on Sri Krishna Ji’s part to say that ‘I do not appear in form; I do not take birth from Durga’s (Prakriti) womb-like Sri Krishna, etc. Because Durga is Brahm’s wife. Because Kaal creates different forms (Mahabrahma, Mahavishnu and Mahashiv, etc) by the power of the word. And then abandons that body at a fixed time. He has this type of birth and death.
Therefore, in Holy Bhagavad Gita Chapter 4 Verse 5, Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2 Verse 12, it is said that you and I have had many births; you do not know; I know. It is not that I and you and these soldiers were not there earlier or will not be there in the future. In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 10 Verse 2, has said that even gods do not know my origin (birth) because all of these have originated from me.
In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 4 Verse 9, it has been said that my birth and deeds are superhuman. It has been proved from the aforesaid shreds of evidence that even Brahm has an origin. Only the Purna Parmatma/the Supreme God tells that because Kaal (Brahm) has originated from an egg by the power of the word of Purna Brahm (SatPurush) KavirDev. This evidence is also in Holy Bhagavad Gita Chapter 3 Verse 14-15, that Brahm has originated from the eternal God; who is the creator of Brahm Kaal. He has told about the origin of Kaal Brahm. Like, children do not know the origin of their father, only the grandfather (father of the father) can tell that. Here the indication is that Brahm is saying that even I have an origin, but even the gods (Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva), who have originated from me, do not know it.
Important: The meaning of (vyakt) ‘manifested’ is to be visibly seen i.e. to meet and see. The meaning of (avyakt) unmanifested is that there is an object but is invisible. Like, the clouds cover the sky and the sun becomes invisible but is present beyond the clouds. Similarly, all gods are present in a human-like visible body but are beyond our vision. Therefore, are known as unmanifested (avyakt). One unmanifested is the giver of the knowledge of Gita whose evidence is in Gita Chapter 7 Verse 24-25, this Brahm –Kshar Purush is unmanifested. The second unmanifested has been told in Gita Chapter 8 Verse 18, that at the beginning of the day the whole manifested world originates from the unmanifested ie. Invisible ParBrahm, that is, Akshar Purush. The third unmanifested is told in Gita Chapter 8 Verse 20-22, that from that (described in Verse 18) unmanifested the other eternal unmanifested ie. invisible PaarBrahm does not get destroyed. He is Param Akshar Brahm, that is, complete Brahm. In this way, all three Gods are in form but are beyond the vision of creatures therefore, are called unmanifested.
Summary Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verses 26 to 28
In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 26 to 28, the speaker of the knowledge of Gita; God Kaal is stating that ‘I (Brahm) am aware of the state of all the living beings (who are under my authority in my twenty-one Brahmands) in the past-future and present that who will take birth in which life form. But nobody can know me. The whole world is distressed by love, hatred, and attachment and has become ignorant. Only those sinless living beings, whose love-hatred and attachment have dispelled, can do my bhajan (worship), otherwise not.
Please Ponder: - Only a living being free from love-hatred, attachment and sins can remember God, others cannot. The meaning of sinless is that those whose doubts have dispelled, that compared to the pooja of gods-goddesses and Brahma, Vishnu, Shiv, and Mother Durga, Brahm’s sadhana is superior. Then that seeker sincerely (free from sin) worships God. The devotion has been described in pious Vedas and pious Gita. The living beings in the three regions and the twenty-one Brahmands (Kaal-lok) can never become free from these defects/vices. Then how can an ordinary devotee (bhakt) become free from sin or action? Even God Vishnu could not avoid love-hatred, attachment, etc; neither does Brahma Ji, nor Shiv Ji. Then what hope does an ordinary man have?
Note: Here, the idea of me (Rampal Das) that is, the translator is; a seeker cannot be liberated from sins by the method of devotion described in Vedas and Gita rather gets according to the principle “receive as per Karma”. Like, Shri Ramchandra, the incarnation of Shri Vishnu, killed Bali by betrayal. Its revenge was given in the form of Shri Krishna. Purna Brahm is the destroyer of sins, that procedure has been mentioned in the fifth Veda, that is, Swasamveda (Sukshma Veda). Therefore, only the enlightened (Tatvadarshi) saint tells that destroyer of sins way of worship by which the seeker becomes free from sins and attains complete salvation.
In Verse 26, the narrator of Gita’s knowledge tells ‘I know the incidents of past-future, but I never manifest before anyone. Due to this reason, no one knows me (Kaal).
Verse 27: Due to a lack of true spiritual knowledge all creatures out of ignorance receive happiness-distress by having desires and hatred. They remain trapped in the cycle of happiness-sorrow, birth-death as a result of deeds even after performing devotion to Brahm Kaal means the knowledge giver of Gita and other gods-goddesses.
Verse 28: But those men, who perform virtuous acts without any desire, whose sins have become destroyed, those firmly determined devotees, free from the conflicting infatuation arising from love-hatred, worship me in all respects.
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 29
Who Escapes From Kaal’s Trap?
The meaning of Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 29, is Kaal Brahm has said that those who take shelter of my knowledge after searching the enlightened saint become familiar with my entire true spiritual knowledge; who strive to get rid of old age and death that means are engrossed in devotion, know that Tat Brahm and my entire (adhyatm) spiritual knowledge and all actions.
Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 30
The meaning of Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 30, is those who did not get a true spiritual leader; devotees who correctly know me along with Adhibhoot, Adhidaiv, and Adhiyagya, they know me and have their mind engrossed even at the time of death i.e. being aware of the sufferings inflicted by me, keep their mind fixed in one Supreme God. They are attained to me only, means remain trapped in Kaal’s web.
Purna Brahm God is situated (Adhiyagya) in the Yagyas. There is a full description in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 3 Verse 14, 15.
Doubt: A doubt will arise in the minds of the God-loving readers that when Brahm (Kaal) is calling his sadhana also as (anuttamam) means very bad (Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 18), then why is he suggesting to do his sadhana and why has he called those who do the devotion of the three Gunas (Rajgun-Brahma, Satgun-Vishnu, Tamgun-Shiv) as bad?′ (Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12 to 15).
Resolution of Doubt: A scripture-based devotion begins with the method (remembering ‘OM’ Naam by chanting and by doing five Yagyas; dharm/meritorious acts, dhyaan/concentration, pranaam/bow, hawan/lighting lamp, and gyaan/knowledge) mentioned in Holy Vedas and Holy Gita Ji. From that one attains the happiness of salvation in the great Heaven in Brahmlok for the duration of one Mahakalp, but based on the punishment for sinful actions has to bear hardships in Hell and then in the bodies of 84 lakh species of living beings. Then will receive one human body. When those pious souls will be in the human body and some Tatvadarshi Sant delivers them the knowledge of the Purna Parmatma (SatPurush), then they will soon get engaged in that sadhana, because they have previous impressions of bhakti present in them and by doing true sadhana, they attain complete liberation.
With the worship (pooja) of other gods, the duration of liberation/salvation is very short and that of hell is long and the sufferings of the 84 lakh births are also for a longer duration. Like, there are 20 consecutive births of one life form (dog), then because of also having more births of any other life form, one experiences more sufferings. But those who worship Brahm (Kaal) according to the convention, have fewer births as a result of the sacraments of every birth, and even the births of the 84 lakh life forms are experienced quickly. Like, a dog dies in 10 years, one dies just after coming out of its mother’s womb. Like, Rishi Sukhdev Ji’s soul was in the egg of a female parrot; he got relieved when the egg got spoiled; otherwise, the age of a parrot is more than that of a human being. In this way, gets quickly relieved from the troublesome body.
Whenever the worshippers of the other gods attain a human body, they according to the impressions of their previous nature, worship the same three Gunas (Rajgun-Brahma, Satgun-Vishnu, Tamgun-Shiv) and bhoot-bhairvon (ghosts), and pitras (ancestors); they do not listen even when told. Two types of those devotees have been described who used to perform scripture-based sadhana in the previous births; one is Brahm worshippers who used to chant the ‘OM’ mantra and do the five Yagyas. They go to Maha Swarg/ great Heaven and experience hardships in Hell and the lives of other life forms. They can also have more than one consecutive human births. If in all those human births also they do not find a Tatvadarshi Saint, then they have to go through all the above-mentioned states. But they quickly get engaged in true sadhana. The second type of devotees who perform scripture-based sadhana are those who in some Yug (age) used to do sadhana of the Purna Parmatma after attaining sadhana from a Complete Saint (Tatvadarshi Sant). But they could not get liberated. Those devotees go to the region of Satguru Kabir Sahib built-in one Brahmand, where the devotional earnings of those devotees do not finish because the meal provided by the Supreme Father is free. No other person can go there.
Then the Supreme God again grants human life to those devotees at the time when the enlightened saint, who tells about the complete sadhana, has to arrive. At that time, those devotees soon develop faith in the speech (discourses) of that Complete (Purna) Saint, who tells about the true sadhana and starts doing devotion. Out of them some of the souls, considering the fake saints, who deliver similar knowledge of the fake Satlok, as (purna) complete saints, become based on them only and becoming the frog of the well, keep listening to only that knowledge. Even after listening to the true knowledge, being eye-witness does not agree. The second type of scripture-based seekers who have done sadhana; Jaap of Satnam in some age those previous scripture-based seekers also remain in Kaal’s trap. carefully listen and read the Tattavgyan, then soon seek refuge of the Complete Saint (Tatvadarshi Sant). Those who do not come in the refuge of the Complete Saint, based on their previous earnings of true bhakti, keep acquiring numerous human births and because of the absence of a Complete Saint get entrapped in the cycle of the lives of 84 lakh life forms and Hell-Heaven.
Conclusion: In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 it has been stated that the worship done by seekers considering Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, and other gods and goddesses as venerable is useless. Devotees who have gained true spiritual knowledge from the enlightened saint means who know ‘Tat Brahm’ (the Supreme God) knows well the state of Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh hence, do not wish to know anything beyond and strive hard to become free from the cycle of birth-death. Brahm Kaal; the knowledge giver of Gita, plays foul since he is the superior most among humans and has full control over the mind of humans. The evidence of three Gunas has been provided from Durga Purana, also who is the husband of goddess Durga? It is made clear that only foolish people worship three Gunas who do not let living beings become liberated from Kaal’s trap. The creatures remain in the vicious cycle of birth-death by performing their worship and by chanting ‘OM’ name of Brahm. This is the reason why the giver of the knowledge of Gita tells his worship to be inferior since the seekers remain in recurrence. Jyoti Niranjan Kaal does not appear in his real form, meaning remains unmanifested. With true worship of Param Akshar Brahm, creatures get rid of Kaal’s trap and attain the eternal world of Satlok. The above explanation of all Verses of Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 has been done by the great Tatvadarshi Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj.
