Brahmacharini Shubhani Chaitanya will be conducting Vedanta Study Group online via Zoom video conferencing. The Zoom link to join the online session will be sent to registered participants.   In this chapter, Lord Krishna reveals to Arjuna the countless manifestations of His divine splendor pervading the universe. Krishna declares that He is the source of all creation—everything emanates from Him, and all beings act through the power He bestows.   He describes His vibhootis—extraordinary manifestations of His presence—in the most exalted aspects of the world: among mountains He is the Himalayas, among rivers the Ganga, among lights the Sun, among seasons the spring, among warriors He is Arjuna himself. These are not meant for pride or comparison, but to help us recognize the divine in all things, from the grandest phenomena to the smallest spark of life.   The Gita is one of the most widely translated and commented upon scriptures of the world. It is a revelation to humanity by Lord Krishna to Arjuna, a friend and disciple at a critical moment of his life.  It is a universal scripture containing various strands of teachings suited to all types of people at their stages of development.  It teaches the Supreme Goal to be attained as well as the means for attaining it.   To purchase a copy of the book, please visit: (For each chapter individually) https://www.chinmayapublications.com/geetas-upanishads (For the Holy Geeta complete with all chapters) https://www.chinmayapublications.com/bhagavad-gita-holy-geeta   This class is for seekers who have basic knowledge of Vedanta and are looking to gain a deeper understanding of the Self and their spiritual journey.
