To my understanding, Bhagavad Gita is the infinite ocean of knowledge of the universe. E=MC2. An atom equals the universe. Atma (Individual soul) equals Param-atma(cosmic soul). Soul is divine. Soul is the eternal life force, infinite energy, which can’t be created nor it can be destroyed, neither born nor died. Any form of body/matter is nothing but manifestation of this inner soul/energy. I decode the B.G like this - 2 opposite forces or negative & positive (duality) interact in the phenomenal world and harmonious equilibrium or system is established as Cosmic Dharma. When applied in human, the Negative is portrayed as Duryadhona (greed, lust, anger, Pride/ego). Positive - portrayed as Arjuna (truth seeker). Both r the two characters of human mind. The chariot is human body. 5 horses r 5 sense organs, Human mind functions through 5 sense organs. Lord Krishna, the Charioteer, is the Soul, the divinity. How the Divine Soul/Krishna enlightens the embarrassed Arjun in the field of attraction (battle) is what BG unfolds. Positive mind is friendly with soul. It respects n listens to the Soul. Negative mind is the enemy. It does not respect the soul, thus leads to hell. Time, space n causation/Law of Karma r the conditions of the phenomenal universe. The pure consciousness force of the universe (soul/Lord Krishna), which is the supreme energy is beyond time, space n causation. But the phenomenal universe (being manifested) is governed by Law of karma. Newton’s 3rd Law is d direct outcome of Law of Karma. Lord Krishna (the Personified Universal Force) is the silent observer and He rules everything through Law of karma, which is His principle. The force of material desire (attractive force of matters) is so strong that Arjun even fails to control his mind in d field of attraction/desires (kurukhetra). He got embarrassed to see his beloved ones. That means- he was swayed by the negative force despite his wisdom. The Lord Krishna (Soul) throws light of truth, Pure Consciousness Force to Arjuna. Law of Karma is the basis here. Bhakti Yoga (love, devotion n surrender) is the most effective path to spiritual seekers. Freedom N liberty is everybody’s right. We r free to choose any path. However, seeking the truth inward is d only way for experiencing the Absolute.
