"As Arjuna set aside his bow and arrows, let us set aside any sense of confidence in our own abilities so that we may hear Krsna's words with full heart and attention.This kind of submissive hearing is the primary requirement for advancement in spiritual life. The devotee who hears Krsna's words with a submissive heart immediately feels an ingress of causeless knowledge and detachment." – H. G.

Please recite 18th Chapter (verses 40-78) of Bhagavad Gita every day along with one purport from 31 Mar 2019 to 29 Apr 2019
