Om Shanti Angels,
Nice article on "Who is the Sermonizer of GITA?"
I always wonder how does it matter if it is Krishna or Shiv Baba who Spoke Gita?
At last even Krishna's soul is also one of the elevated soul, He is BapSaman anyhow. Then what difference does it make if it's Krishna or ShivBaba who spoke Gita?
In Today's murli Baba very much pulled our attention to this questions.
Few thoughts :
1. Essence of Gita is Manmanbhav (which means just Remember me) and your sins will be incinerate. Especially when This is the only way out of our problem, It matters more than ever who said "Remember ME alone".
2. Essence of knowledge (Gita) is to become Soul conscious from body conscious. All the virtues of the soul awakens when we become soul conscious. If the God himself is a bodily being (Krishna) there is no question of consider the self to be bodyless souls.
3. Once we go into depth of knowledge and see how actually soul gets empowered/recharged/cleansed/purified. We see soul like a battery, which drains its energy by using, we souls drain our energy by in this journey of life or Drama. At the end of the journey of soul (battery) comes the Powerhouse to recharge all the Batteries and get ready for the next show of the Drama.
The method to connect and recharge a soul is Remembrance of Powerhouse, Supreme soul.
Now it very much matters which soul is power house? is it Krishna's soul or Supreme Soul (ShivBaba)? it also matters how accurately do I recognize and connect to The powerhouse/Supreme soul.
4. Gita is mother of all religious scriptures. Big chunk of Bible concepts are from Gita with a change of name, Krishna to Jesus. This is hard ball to play (as they will never what Baba says as they are from a branch. They can never conceptualize the whole tree) but we can direct their attention to "God The Father" rather than the son to pay for there sins (Christian's believe Jesus will pay for their sins).
Please share your thoughts. Looking forward to see your thoughts.
This is Baba's favorite topic of service.

Some more writers went on adding to it and it was later re-named Bharat Samhita, keeping in view that it was the story of this great country called Bharat. Many more writers subsequently added more matter and it became quite voluminous in size. Then its name was changed to Mahabharat.
