7. Chapters 7 to 9 may be understood as the
pure science of Brahman.Krishna ends the ninth chapter with the
imperative to fix the mind on Krishna (Bg.9.34 “Man mana...”)
Conclusion of Chapter 9 is that one should become a pure devotee of the
Lord
Chapter 10 describes the Lord’s opulence on which a devotee can fix
his mind and how to remember Him when we see opulent, powerful and
beautiful things in this world
10 Chapter as its applied science and
Chapter 11 as the practical demonstration of what had been stated in these
Chapters.
Thus the Bhagavad Gita gives us an integrated and complete data about the
Absolute, Supreme Being.

9. Yoga Through Appreciating the Opulences of Shri Bhagavan
By sincerely and constantly studying this chapter, one will understand that
Shri Krishna is the basis of
all vibhutis (opulences) and
saktis (energies).
The entire material universe with all its opulencesThe entire material universe with all its opulences
is just one quarter of His majesty.is just one quarter of His majesty.
When one attains knowledge o the vibhutis,
one can easily understand that everything is
directly or indirectly related to Bhagavan.
Bhagavan bestows buddhi-yoga upon His bhaktas so that they
attain tattva-jnana. In this way, thei ignorance is destroyed and they
engage in bhajana with love (priti).

To make this even clearer, Krishna’s will
now speak the catuh sloki .
A. Anyone knowing Krishna’s as the
unborn Lord and the source of all sages
and demigods is undeluded and free from
all sins. ((10.10.-3)-3)
B.All qualities and attitudes are created by
Krishna’s. Even the progenitors come from His
mind ((10.10.4-6).4-6).
C. Those who know Krishna’s’s glories
engage in devotional service ((10.10.7)7)
Because the knowledge is not different
from Krishna’s it increases one’s
devotion for Him, or gives it if one has
none.
1.about to tell him some very
important information, and He
really wants to make sure that
Arjuna is fully attentive.
2. The demigods and sages don’t
know this. Why? Because Krishna
is the source of them. Such things
can only be known by His mercy.
3.Krishna’s will now make
contrasts between Himself and the
sages and demigods.
10.10.4-5.4-5. Important qualities, but one cannot
know Him through them directly, because He's
their source.
6. All these great persons also don't
understand Krishna’s, because He is their
source.
10.10.77. One who knows these things becomes
inspired in devotional service, and thus can
approach Krishna. Through knowing these
things one gets the faith in Krishna’s to
surrender to Him.
Idea is that one has to hear from Krishna’s
about Himself (or from His devotees) if one is
to understand Him. Otherwise no matter who
you are or what your qualifications are you
won't be able to

10.9. Their minds
become completely
eager to hear My names
and pastimes.
Their life airs have
come to Me.Without Me
they cannot maintain
their lives.
This is their food..
10.10.They have prapati,
so what is the need for
buddhi-yoga?
Krishna answers: To
enter into their direct
relationship with Me.
10.11.Whatever traces of
ignorance may still be there
due to karma I personally
remove.
For such ananya bhaktas, I
maintain them and give them
the intelligence to act
properly. They need go
nowhere else.
Gita - Chapter 10 - SECTION B CATUR SLOKA GITA (10 . 8-11)
Krishna says: I give them
inspiration within their
hearts.
It doesn't come from
within themselves, or any
other source.
It comes only from Me,
and can be accepted only
by them.
Then they come into My
direct association
So this "buddhi yoga" is
the inspiration. It is Me. It
is my personal
association..
Then I manifest My
transcendental qualities
and form for them.
B. CHATUR SLOKA GITA (10.8-11)

16. 16-18. Arjuna wants to come to the tell
mentioned in verses 7-8 of this chapter.
(after vs 18) “Why are you again
and again asking? I have already explained
“aham sarvasya.....”
Arjuna replies “that was just the
seed. By Your sweet teachings You have
created in me a greed to hear about You,
and because of that You are making me beg
You again and again. My ears have
become like tongues, and they long to taste
more of this nectar4.BHAGAVAD GITA Study by Bhakticaru Swami
1. Arjuna is very deeply affected and
glorifies Krishna very beautifully, citing
previous authorities. Then he finally really
surrenders to Krishna (12-15)
2. Arjuna asks Krishna to tell him some of His
opulences, so he will be able to think of Him
(mayy asakta manah) (16-18)
12-15. Basically Arjuna is saying that You
are so amazing and so great that only You
can understand yourself. And the only way
anyone else could understand you would
be by Your mercy.

things one will realize that they are so
exceptional that only God could be
responsible for their existing.

41-42. Actually all this is quite
insignificant. With just a tiny part
of Himself Lord Krishna is
sustaining everything in existence.19. Krishna addresses Arjuna as
“hanta”. This is a particularly
endearing term, something like
“darling”, and indicates Krishna’s
extreme feelings of mercy towards
Arjuna..
A.Krishna agrees to describe His
opulences to some extent (10.19).
B..Krishna’s opulences,

20. Of all the trees, the fig tree (ficus religiosa) is looked upon as a manifestation
of the glory of God. It is also the center of so many rituals that are supposed
to yield the desired fruits.
The word Ashwatha is also broken up as
"A,"
Shwa, and
Tha,
which means "nothing for tomorrow."
Symbolically, this means that the aspirant attains Self-knowledge and is not
required to be born again.
http://www.americanyogaassociation.org/Rama%20Gita%2013.html
21. What is the meaning of Ashvattha Tree ?
GITA Ch 15 , Verse 1
Asvattham : 'svah’ means 'tomorrow,' and ‘na sthah’
means 'not existing'.
So Ashvattha means 'not existing tomorrow’
It continues till the moment when true knowledge is attained.
It stops and disappears then.
So it is in one sense imperishable and inanother sense perishable.
It is rightly described as ‘Asvatthah’, because of its perishable
and mutable character.
But it is described here as 'avyayam'-not perishing. How ? The
explanation is, here Samsara, like a flood, flows ceaselessly,
birth and death occurring in an endless series for man.
This tree of Samsara is of doubtful existence. No one can say
whether it exists the next day or even the next hour, or even
the next minute. It is perishable.

GITA CH 10, v 39
A big tree --- with many branches,
leaves, flowers, fruits, and seeds ---
remains inside a tiny seed in
unmanifest form
Similarly, all manifestations remain in
the Absolute in unmanifest form
become manifest during creation
and unmanifest
during dissolution again and again.
