Strana 13 - 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!
Strana 78 - Sama-Veda, Yajur-Ved; The Way, the Fosterer, the Lord, the Judge, The Witness; the Abode, the Refuge-House, The Friend, the Fountain and the Sea of Life Which sends, and swallows up; Treasure of Worlds And Treasure-Chamber! Seed and Seed-Sower, Whence endless harvests spring! Sun's heat is mine; Heaven's rain is mine to grant or to withhold; Death am I, and Immortal Life I am, Arjuna! SAT and ASAT, Visible Life, And Life Invisible!
Strana 104 - Eyes of God! O Head! My strength of soul is fled, Gone is heart's force, rebuked is mind's desire! When I behold Thee so, With awful brows a-glow, With burning glance, and lips lighted by fire Fierce as those flames which shall Consume, at close of all, Earth, Heaven!
Strana 124 - Of the body, and the five domains of sense ; Desire, dislike, pleasure and pain, and thought Deep-woven, and persistency of being; These all are wrought on Matter by the Soul ! Humbleness, truthfulness, and harmlessness, Patience and honour, reverence for the wise, Purity, constancy, control of self, 1 This is the nearest possible version of Kshetrakshetrajnayojndnan yat tajndn matan mama.
Strana 90 - mid the winds; 'mid chiefs Rama with blood imbrued, Makar 'mid fishes of the sea, and Ganges 'mid the streams; Yea ! First, and Last, and Centre of all which is or seems I am, Arjuna ! Wisdom Supreme of what is wise, Words on the uttering lips I am, and eyesight of the eyes, And "A...
Strana 27 - The body's life proceeds not, lacking work. There is a task of holiness to do, Unlike world-binding toil, which bindeth not The faithful soul; such earthly duty do Free from desire, and thou shalt well perform Thy heavenly purpose. Spake Prajapati — In the beginning, when all men were made, And, with mankind, the sacrifice — "Do this! Work! sacrifice! Increase and multiply With sacrifice! This shall be Kamaduk, Your 'Cow of Plenty,' giving back her milk Of all abundance.
Strana 115 - These words to Arjuna spake Vasudev, and straight did take Back again the semblance dear Of the well-loved charioteer; Peace and joy it did restore When the Prince beheld once more Mighty BRAHMA'S form and face Clothed in Krishna's gentle grace. ARJUNA : Now that I see come back, Janardana ! This friendly human frame, my mind can think Calm thoughts once more; my heart beats still again!
Strana 22 - If one Ponders on objects of the sense, there springs Attraction ; from attraction grows desire, Desire flames to fierce passion, passion breeds Recklessness; then the memory — all betrayed — Lets noble purpose go, and saps the mind, Till purpose, mind, and man are all undone, made a deep impression on my mind, and they still ring in my ears.
Strana 15 - Wonderful, wistful, to contemplate ! Difficult, doubtful, to speak upon ! Strange and great for tongue to relate, Mystical hearing for every one ! Nor wotteth man this, what a marvel it is, When seeing, and saying, and hearing are done...
