SHRIMAD BHAGVAD GITA-A JAIN PERSPECTIVE
"The path of Light and the Path of Darkness available to the world are eternal. By one, a person does not return while by the other he has to return i.e. to take births and rebirths."- 26
नैते सूती पार्थ जानन्योगी मुह्यति कश्चन । तस्मात्सर्वेषु कालेषु योगयुक्तो भवार्जुन || २७ ॥
"Knowing these two Paths, oh Partha, no Yogi is deluded. Therefore, be stead fast in Yoga for all times".- 27
वेदेषु यज्ञेषु तपः सु चैव
दानेषु यत्पुण्यफलं प्रदिष्टम् ।
अत्येति तत्सर्वमिदं विदित्वा
योगी परं स्थानमुपैति चाद्यम् ॥ २८ ॥ "Whatever fruit of merit is obtained from the studies of Vedas, Sacrifices, aust - erities and charity, Yogi goes beyond and knowing importance of these two paths, he attains primodial abode in Supreme." -28
