Bhagavad-gītā As it Is — Bhagavad-gītā Como Ele É EM PROCESSO << 8 - Attaining the Supreme >> << 8 - Alcançando o Supremo >> << VERSE 5 — VERSO 5 >> अन्तकाले च माम एव समरन मुक्त्वा कलेवरम यः परयाति स मद्भावं याति नास्त्य अत्र संशयः anta-kāle ca mām eva smaran muktvā kalevaram yaḥ prayāti sa mad-bhāvaṁ yāti nāsty atra saṁśayaḥ WORD BY WORD — PALAVRA POR PALAVRA anta-kāle at the end of life ca also mām Me eva certainly smaran remembering muktvā quitting kalevaram the body yaḥ he who prayāti goes saḥ he mat-bhāvam My nature yāti achieves na not asti there is atra here saṁśayaḥ doubt TRANSLATION — TRADUÇÃO And whoever, at the end of his life, quits his body remembering Me alone at once attains My nature. Of this there is no doubt. E todo aquele que, no fim de sua vida, abandone seu corpo, lembrando-se unicamente de Mim, no mesmo instante alcança Minha natureza. Quanto a isto, não há dúvidas. PURPORT — SIGNIFICADO In this verse the importance of Kṛṣṇa consciousness is stressed. Anyone who quits his body in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is at once transferred to the transcendental nature of the Supreme Lord. The Supreme Lord is the purest of the pure. Therefore anyone who is constantly Kṛṣṇa conscious is also the purest of the pure. The word smaran (“remembering”) is important. Remembrance of Kṛṣṇa is not possible for the impure soul who has not practiced Kṛṣṇa consciousness in devotional service. Therefore one should practice Kṛṣṇa consciousness from the very beginning of life. If one wants to achieve success at the end of his life, the process of remembering Kṛṣṇa is essential. Therefore one should constantly, incessantly chant the mahā-mantra – Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. Lord Caitanya has advised that one be as tolerant as a tree (taror api sahiṣṇunā). There may be so many impediments for a person who is chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa. Nonetheless, tolerating all these impediments, one should continue to chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare, so that at the end of one’s life one can have the full benefit of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. << Previous Verso — Verso anterior | Next Verse — Próximo >>
