SHRIMAD BHAGVAD GITA-A JAIN PERSPECTIVE
(My real self) when they see Me in human form, They know not My higher self as the Lord of all Beings. "- 11
मोघाशा मोधकर्माणो मोधज्ञाना विचेतसः ।
राक्षसीमासुरी चैव प्रकृतिं मोहिनी श्रिताः ।। १२ ।।
"Of vain hopes and of vain action, of vain knowledge and senseless, they are possessed of delusive nature of demons and evil spirits."- 12
महात्मानस्तु मां पार्थ देवीं प्रकृतिमाश्रिता: । भजन्त्यनन्यमनसो ज्ञात्वा भूतादिमव्ययम् ॥ १३ ॥
"However, great souls, taking refuge in My Divine Nature worship Me singleminded by knowing me as the imperishable source of beings."- 13
सततं कीर्तयन्तो मां यतन्तश्च दृढव्रताः ।
नमस्यन्तश्च मां भक्त्या नित्ययुक्ता उपासते ॥ १४ ॥
"They worship Me with devotion, always glorifying Me with steadfast faith."14 ज्ञानयज्ञेन चाप्येन यजन्तो मामुपासते । एकत्वेन पृथक्त्वेन बहुधा विश्वतोमुखम् ।। १५ ।।
