Pragmatic Gita - Chapter 2, Discover the Eternal Soul, Shlokas 19 to 24

Chapter 2 - Sankhya Yoga

Unlock the profound wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita in this episode, where we explore the eternal nature of the soul as taught by Lord Krishna in verses 2.19 to 2.24. The Gita reveals that the soul, distinct from the temporary body, is eternal, indestructible, and beyond birth or death. By understanding the eternal soul, we gain clarity on the cycle of life and death and uncover the deeper purpose of existence.

Through Krishna’s teachings, discover how the soul is unaffected by weapons, fire, water, or wind, emphasizing its subtler, immutable essence. Drawing on insights from Vedanta and the Upanishads, this episode delves into the causes of human suffering, including ignorance (avidya), attachment (raga), and egoism (asmita), and highlights the path to liberation through self-realization.

Learn how the soul discards old bodies and takes on new ones, much like changing garments, and how recognizing this truth can free us from the fear of death. Through relatable examples and timeless philosophy, this episode inspires listeners to transcend material attachments and reconnect with their higher self.

Join us as we explore Krishna’s guidance on how to align with the eternal truth of the soul, find peace amidst life’s challenges, and embrace the path to spiritual liberation. This podcast offers practical wisdom for seekers striving to understand life’s ultimate purpose.
