Bhagavad-gītā As it Is — Bhagavad-gītā Como Ele É EM PROCESSO << 13 - Nature, the Enjoyer and Consciousness >> << 13 - A Natureza, o Desfrutador e a Consciência >> << VERSE 4 — VERSO 4 >> तत कषेत्रं यच च यादृक च यद्विकारि यतश च यत स च यॊ यत्प्रभावश च तत समासेन मे शृणु tat kṣetraṁ yac ca yādṛk ca yad-vikāri yataś ca yat sa ca yo yat-prabhāvaś ca tat samāsena me śṛṇu WORD BY WORD — PALAVRA POR PALAVRA tat that kṣetram field of activities yat what ca also yādṛk as it is ca also yat having what vikāri changes yataḥ from which ca also yat what saḥ he ca also yaḥ who yat having what prabhāvaḥ influence ca also tat that samāsena in summary me from Me śṛṇu understand TRANSLATION — TRADUÇÃO Now please hear My brief description of this field of activity and how it is constituted, what its changes are, whence it is produced, who that knower of the field of activities is, and what his influences are. PURPORT — SIGNIFICADO The Lord is describing the field of activities and the knower of the field of activities in their constitutional positions. One has to know how this body is constituted, the materials of which this body is made, under whose control this body is working, how the changes are taking place, wherefrom the changes are coming, what the causes are, what the reasons are, what the ultimate goal of the individual soul is, and what the actual form of the individual soul is. One should also know the distinction between the individual living soul and the Supersoul, their different influences, their potentials, etc. One just has to understand this Bhagavad-gītā directly from the description given by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and all this will be clarified. But one should be careful not to consider the Supreme Personality of Godhead in every body to be one with the individual soul, the jīva. This is something like equating the potent and the impotent. << Previous Verso — Verso anterior | Next Verse — Próximo >>
