BHAGAVAD GITA PATH TO HUMAN PROGRESS

DR.T.V.RAO MD 1

• The power of God is

with you at all times;

through the activities of

mind, senses,

breathing, and

emotions; and is

constantly doing all the

work using you as a

mere instrument.”

GOD IS WITHIN US

WE ARE INSTRUMENTS

DR.T.V.RAO MD 2

• “Perform your obligatory

duty, because action is

indeed better than inaction.”

• “One gradually attains

tranquility of mind by

keeping the mind fully

absorbed in the Self by

means of a well-trained

intellect, and thinking of

nothing else.”

ACTION IS BETTER THAN INACTION

DR.T.V.RAO MD 3

ACTION LEADS TO RESULTS –

HOWEVER YOU HAVE NO CONTROL ON RESULTS

• Karmani ave adhikars te

--you have the power to act only

ma phalesu kadachana

--you do not have the power to influence the result

ma karmaphal hetur bhoo

--therefore you must act without the anticipation of the

result

ma sangostu akramani

--without succumbing to inaction

DR.T.V.RAO MD 4

• The mind acts like

an enemy for those

who do not control

it.”

• “Perform your

obligatory duty,

because action is

indeed better than

inaction.”

LIFE IS ACTION – PERFORM YOUR DUTY

DR.T.V.RAO MD 5

• “A gift is pure when it

is given from the

heart to the right

person at the right

time and at the right

place, and when we

expect nothing in

return”

GIFT WITH CAUTION FOR RIGHT PURPOSE

DR.T.V.RAO MD 6

• Man is made by his

belief. As he believes,

so he is.”

• The disunited mind is

far from wise; how can

it meditate? How be at

peace? When you know

no peace, how can you

know joy?”

MEDITATION ATTAINS PEACE – PEACE

ATTAINS HAPPINESS

DR.T.V.RAO MD 7

• “Fix your mind on Me, be

devoted to Me, offer service to

Me, bow down to Me, and you

shall certainly reach Me. I

promise you because you are

very dear to Me

• “A Karma-yogi performs action

by body, mind, intellect, and

senses, without attachment (or

ego), only for self-purification.”

KARMA YOGA IS BEST OF LIFE IN ACTION –

PERFECT IT

DR.T.V.RAO MD 8

• “There has never been a

time when you and I have

not existed, nor will there

be a time when we will

cease to exist. As the same

person inhabits the body

through childhood, youth,

and old age, so too at the

time of death he attains

another body. The wise are

not deluded by these

changes.”

LIFE IS PROGRESS FROM BIRTH TO DEATH –

DO NOT DELUDED OF CHANGES

DR.T.V.RAO MD 9

• Better indeed is

knowledge than

mechanical practice.

Better than knowledge

is meditation. But better

still is surrender of

attachment to results,

because there follows

immediate peace.”

DETACHMENT LEADS TO PEACE

DR.T.V.RAO MD 10

• Whatever I am offered

in devotion with a pure

heart - a leaf, a flower,

fruit, or water - I accept

with joy.”

• Whatever you do, make

it an offering to me --

the food you eat, the

sacrifices you make,

the help you give, even

your suffering.”

I ACCEPT YOUR PURITY IN OFFERING NOT

THE CONTENTS

DR.T.V.RAO MD 11

• “Hypocrisy, arrogance, pride, anger, harshness, and ignorance; these are the marks of those who are born with demonic qualities, O Arjuna.”

• “Fear not what is not real, never was and never will be. What is real, always was and cannot be

destroyed.

FEAR NOT WHAT IS NOT REAL

HOWEVER LIFE IS MAYA

DR.T.V.RAO MD 12

• It is better to do one’s

own duty, however

defective it may be,

than to follow the duty

of another, however

well one may perform it.

He who does his duty

as his own nature

reveals it, never sins.

DO YOUR DUTY WITH DIGNITY AND RESPECT

DR.T.V.RAO MD 13

• Delusion arises from

anger. The mind is

bewildered by

delusion. Reasoning

is destroyed when

the mind is

bewildered. One falls

down when

reasoning is

destroyed.

ANGER IS PATH TO DESTRUCTION

HOWEVER CONTROL IT

DR.T.V.RAO MD 14

• Little by little, through

patience and repeated

effort, the mind will become

stilled in the Self.

• Delusion arises from anger.

The mind is bewildered by

delusion. Reasoning is

destroyed when the mind is

bewildered. One falls down

when reasoning is

destroyed. ~

DR.T.V.RAO MD 15

• The person whose mind

is always free from

attachment, who has

subdued the mind and

senses, and who is free

from desires, attains the

supreme perfection of

freedom from Karma

through renunciation.

RENOUNCING LIFE THROUGH KARMA YOGA

DR.T.V.RAO MD 16

• Fear Not. What is not real,

never was and never will

be. What is real, always

was and cannot be

destroyed.

is pure, who is in harmony,

who is master of his life,

whose soul is one with the

soul of all.

• Neither in this world

nor elsewhere is

there any happiness

in store for him who

always doubts.

• Man is made by his

belief. As he

believes, so he is.

DO NOT DOUBT – MAN IS MADE BY BELIEF

DR.T.V.RAO MD 18

• Still your mind in me, still

yourself in me, and without

a doubt you shall be united

with me, Lord of Love,

dwelling in your heart.

• On this path effort never

goes to waste, and there is

no failure. Even a little

effort toward spiritual

awareness will protect you

from the greatest fear. ~

DO EVERYTHING KEEPING MIND ON ME

DR.T.V.RAO MD 19

• “Death is as sure

for that which is

born, as birth is for

that which is dead.

Therefore grieve

not for what is

inevitable.

DEATH IS PART OF LIFE

DO NOT GRIEVE

DR.T.V.RAO MD 20

• Human life is decided by

almighty we are just a

spectators to our own

life.

• However think about your

past things have occurred

without your consent and

imagination.

• Surrender everything to

almighty to live in peace.
