Categories: Shloka For The Week and The Bhagavad Gita
Message from this shloka is not only applicable for this week but for all time to come- this is the wisdom of The Bhagavad Gita. The divine song as presented by Lord Krishna to Arjuna in the battlefield of Kurukshetra, which represents the battle of life- as we all experience.
Here is shloka from The Bhagavad Gita for this week. This message is from Chapter 10, Verse 41 which says:
“Whatever is endowed with glory, brilliance, and power; know that to be a manifestation of a very small fraction of My splendor. ”
- The Bhagavad Gita Chapter 10, Verse 41

April 25- 26, 2020 is Akshaya Tritiya. This day is especially celebrated to indicate how we can be blessed by eternal (Akshaya) goodness. It is believed that anything that is started on this day will continue ‘eternally’.
This is the reason people typically buy gold and other valuables on this day with the intension that such good and valuable things will continue to come in our life for a very long time.
It is very perfect that The Bhagavad Gita shloka for this week is reminding us that everything that we value and are impressed by in this creation is ultimately in existence because of the divine essence within it. As we know, nothing can exist in this world unless there is the divine essence in it.

This is very obvious to view in animate beings. But this is also true of the animate beings. Even if there is a rock, a crystal, a river, a beautiful sunrise and so on- they all exist because of the divine essence which allows for it to come into existence.
So as we start a new week and we are looking at the situation going on around us (and in the world), at some level we are trying to figure out how to stay healthy and continue with our means of livelihood in this new and trying times… even as we are working on all these aspects of our life- let us make sure that first and foremost, we pay obeisance to the very essence which allow for all this to come into existence and also in our lives.
Once we firmly establish our connection with the divine then it is but natural that all the goodness and bounties of material existence are sure to flow in our life!!
This week reflect on the above shloka and see what other meanings come up for you. What are some of the other interpretations that you feel more in tune with your own life situation. And above all, I hope that you will take the wisdom from this shloka, and utilize its guidance- not just for this coming week, but for all the times ahead…
Happy Akshaya Tritiya and I wish everyone a fantastic week ahead…
