Srimad Bhagavadgeeta :

Chapter-7. ( Jnana vijnana yogam )

Slokam-17. ( If Jnani is the dearest, then what about the other three types 

such as Aathan and so...)



Udharaah sarvva evaite jnanitvaatmaiva me matam


Aasthitah sa hi yuktatma mamevanuttamam ghatim.



Ete sarvva udhrah eva       =       All these people are superior and best,

Tu jnani atma eva               =        But Jnani and me ( Lord ) are not two separate persns,

Me matam                              =        My opinion.

Hi                                               =       Why because,

Sah yuktatma                        =         He is with his mind fixed in me,

Anuttamam ghatim             =        The supreme support ( me, Lord) ,

Mam eva Aasthita                =         Fully united ( dissolved ) in me.



The Jnani who has obtained the experience ( All fully Brahmam ) are very few, but do not loose confidence on hearing my statement. The aim of this statement is not to discourage the seekers, this is understood by using common sense. By comparing total count of world living population, human beings are very less. Among human beings mentally and intelligintly developed count is not much! Those who have gained development in mind and intelligence, are all need not to be interested in Spirituality, Truth and scientific study of Scriptures. Among them those who follow scientific study of Spiritual texts superficially satisfied ( assuming understood), but no one brings this knowledge into practice. Now it is clear that the knowledge gained, is not followed sincerely and do not hard work, to achieve the supreme tatvam ( principle) of Paramatma .


Ancient Rishies knew that the life's ( Jeevatma ) development from finite to infinite, is very slow. In the flow of time, various experiences and situations refine the individual from drawbacks, vices, wrongs, shortages, this takes many thousand years. It ( Jeevatma ) needs many births / rebirths to wipe the ignorance and experience the pure "Jnanam" (Jeevatma and Paramatma are not two, but are one). 


It does not mean that those who follow the path of Atmeeyam at present not experience Atmanubuthi ( Bliss ) . Meaning of this is to encourage the seekers not to delay their Sadhana ( Abhiyasam/practice ) and move forward : this is what Lord Krishna tells to Arjuna. Leading present life depending on Vishayas { sensuous pleasures,(few seconds experience ..) }, continuing this way is not holy, there is a Supreme goal ahead to achieve, those intelligent seekers who have the ability to grasp the teachings of Upanishads and respect them, follow them, slowly almost reached the spot of the Sreekovil ( holiness) of Paramatma. Now if sincerely (with conscious of the goal), put little more effort attain the goal of connecting/uniting with Paramatma.
