// Murthy garu, may I ask you to suggest a good book on the Geeta? //
What is meant by 'good'. I understand that as original intention of the Lord KRushNa. When Lord has preached Geeta to Arjuna hanumanthuDu heard this being on the chariot of Arjuna. We believe that hanumantha is avtaara of Vaayu dEva. His second incarnation is that of BhImasEna. Third is of Madhva. So I feel that madhva bhaashya one should read to understand Geeta pRoperly. That is available in sanskrit and kannada and telugu translations. If I know in which language you are interested then I can suggest that. Recently some attempts are being made to put inthe web english translation also.
vEdavyaasa being the avataar of Lord vishNu wrote the bhaarata well before it haappened. So vEdavyaasa who made the Geeta also knows the true intention. madhva has served vedavyaasa and madhva bhaashya was corrected by his guru vEdavyaasa and correction is of only two letters.
Saktita@h is corrected as lESata@h

// Perfection comes through the disinterested performance of action. //
Perfection is divine. How it can be achieved without interest. That is to say that with utmost interest also it can not be achieved, then how without interest it can be achieved?

Answer to the last point :-
The less passion there is ,the better we work.The calmer we are ,the more amount of work we can do.Perfection comes through the disinterested performance of action . It is beacuse the consciousness that I'm doing this and that is never present when works through concentration(yoga).The famous sceintists , pholosophers, social workers work with concentration losing all consciousness of oneself

When there is no attachment towards work
then there will be no attachment towards result.
Coming to the result of the work which was done without attachment has certainly some good and bad impact on the society.
We cannot do any work whcih will not do some good somewhere;there will be not any work which will not cause some harm somewhere.Every work must necessarily be a mixture of good and evil(percentage differs)
yet we are comnanded to work incessantly.Good and evil both will have their results,will produce their karma.

The ideal man is he who, in the midst of greatest silence and solitude,finds the intense activity, and in the midst of intense finds the silence and solitude of the desert. He has learned the secret of restraint,he has controlled himself. He goes through the streets of a big city with all its traffic, and his mind is calm as if he were in a cave, where not a sound could reach him and he is intensely working all time. He is karma yogi." Work incessantly , but give up all attachment to work.
All negative traits like jeolousy, hatred, selfishness,anger, misery comes through attachment with work, not from work.

Lord Krishna's Gita teaches Karma-yoga,work through concentration.In such concentration in action (Karma-yoga), there is no consciousness of the lower ego present.The consciousness that I'm doing this and that is never present when works through concentration(yoga).The famous sceintists , pholosophers, social workers work with concentration losing all consciousness of oneself.This never leads to any personal benefit.Such a performance of work brings only good to the world,no evil can come out of it.

Tatvam in sense beyond time and space.there is no sense in talking about history of Sri krishna as a king. As a king he died long ago. but as a mystic and philospher he lives in our hearts forever.he lives in the form of Gita, a presentation of ancient wisdom.

SOME NEWS I WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU ALL
----------------------------------------
LORD KRISHNA SPENT 125 YEARS ON EARTH
It was February 18, 3102 BC Friday at 02 hours, 27 minutes and 30 seconds in the afternoon when Lord Krishna left his earthly body for his heavenly abode - or so claims an ascetic after intensive calculations.
Swami Gyananand Saraswati of the Varanasi-based Adi Jagadguru Shankaracharya Vedic Research Institute also claims to have calculated exactly how many hours Lord Krishna spent on Earth and his precise age when the epic battle Mahabharata ended.
He says Lord Krishna spent 125 years on Earth and departed precisely 5,106 years ago. The ascetic scholar presented a detailed timeline of the life of the Lord before a gathering of scholars at Somnath temple in Prabhas Patan, 350 km from this Gujarat city.
He says his calculations are based on the study of various Indian scriptures, including Skand Purana, Shrimad Bhagawat Purana, Shri Vishnu Mahapurana, Matsya Parva and the epic Mahabhara.
He also referred to the astrological treatise Bhrigu Samhita for dating various events in Krishna's life. He fed the data into a computer and used a special software to determine the longitude and latitude of various places mentioned in the texts.
He says Krishna died 36 years after the war of Mahabharata. "His age on the last day of the war was 89 years, two months and seven days. That tallies with the estimate of 125 years," Saraswati asserts.
He claims that Krishna was born the 22nd day of the fourth month of the 863,874th year of Dwapar Yug, which was the eighth day of the second half of the Hindu calendar month of Shravan, the day Janmashtami, or the birth of Krishna, is celebrated.
Saraswati, who is at the Somnath temple complex for a traditional four-month sojourn of Chaturmas, declared his findings on Tuesday to coincide with Janmashtami celebrations.
He has also worked out a chronology of the temple, one of the Dwadasha Jyotirlingas or the 12 most important temples of Lord Shiva. The temple has been reconstructed many times in its history.
The present temple was constructed in 1951 at the behest of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the first home minister, and the idols were installed by India's first president Rajendra Prasad.
