Lord Krishna has given a message to Arjun representing human race, to recognize and realize themselves as reflection of Supreme who himself is not the doer.
Like Supreme Self Lord Krishna self soul is the master.
Under his domain nature creates and destroys beings as per their attachment with it.
In chapter three of Shrimad Bhagwad Geeta Lord says:
Lokeasamin duvidha nishtha pura prokta mayaanangh I
Gyanyogen sankhayanam karamyogen yoginam II (3.3)
Lord Krishna says: In this planet two courses of spiritual faith have been enunciated by me in the past. For Wiseman it is the path of wisdom and for man of action it proceeds with the path of action
Lord has prescribed two paths to attain self realization.
For those who want to know the Lord through wisdom, it comes through only wisdom to realize Him and those who are prone to actions, path of selfless action, as prescribed in next verses, leads the follower, to Him.
Na karmarhnamanarambhanneshkarmayam purshoashnute I
Na ch sanyasandev sidhim adhigachhati II (3.4)
Embodied ‘self soul’ does not attain freedom of action without entering into action; nor does he reach perfection by merely ceasing to act.
Acts which has been done with desire of fruits in one’s past bodies, which are when ready to bestow fruits in form of pleasure and pain, shall have to be undergone.
Freedom of action can be obtained by performing them selflessly as a duty unto Lord and with no desire of fruit from them.
If again they are performed with attachments and desire for fruit, they are going to cause recycling with no end to it.
This self soul embodied in a particular form, on account of being conditioned to satisfy senses, again commits same mistake of identifying with body cover and its actions.
Bhagwad Geeta has no other message than to alert strayed ‘Self Souls’ to detach from material energy and take up home ward journey.
Action performed selflessly shall lead to self- realization
More over, an embodied soul can not attain perfection by abstaining from action. The action done with attachment does not exhaust without being undergone, even for thousands of death and birth.
Culmination of discipline of action is obtained from self less action but not by abstaining from actions one can not acquire culmination of discipline of wisdom.
Na hi kashchitksharhamapi jatu tishathtiakaramkrit I
Karyate hivashah karam sarvah parkritijergurhei II (3.5)
An embodiment with living entity can not remain without action for even a moment, for everyone is driven to action by its nature- born qualities.
Every verse of Shrimad Bhagwad Geeta is awakening.
Till the death of body, the embodied self soul goes on executing actions coming as reactions of attachment and identification with modes of material nature.
The embodiment is the effect of association with qualities of nature.
Embodiment of human form is the result of mixture of three qualities.
The idea of “I” and “mine” is itself is the effect of mixtures of three qualities, since all intercourse through mind, sense objects, organs and pranas is the effect of a mixture of the gunas. One identifies one self with the body, organs etc. as one’s own as to say ‘I’ am a such and such son of such and such’ or I am a soldier, I am a man or woman’, it is my father, it is my house, I shall do this and that.
Often one addresses objects as one’s own. Mind, senses, organs and pranas are outcome of one or other qualities of nature. With association of them with each other is the cause of action.
