Cosmic Bhagavad Gita Chapter 10

10.Vibhuti Yoga: Yoga of the Divine Manifestations

Knowledge has to go through a process to support the intellect. It is a customary process for the parents to teach first, then the school teachers or Guru chela association (‘In Hinduism, the bond between a chela and a guru (teacher) is considered sacred.’) and professors from great universities. Finally, your wisdom, while getting attracted to the theory of truth seeks the divinity in the awaiting consciousness.

You educate, receive knowledge and unite with the activated intelligence in the aim to diffuse into the consciousness. The lower life forms may have different processes for its diffusion with the divine 

Chapter ten evokes the principles of learning. Firstly Krishna helps Arjun meditate on the ‘Manifestations of his Divine Glories.’ The Ancient Ethics which had become rituals is worth noting. Krishna is Guru and Arjuna is the chela. Learning first from a guru is what Krishna desires to teach. This chapter is inspirational reading for you to start understanding Krishna as a mysterious person as he is the source of all creations, everything moves because of him and all such charisma that is glorious, prosperous or powerful seems to be created just by a spark of Krishna’s yogic powers, truly fascinating.

Bhagavad Gita has a numerical massage also which needs to be deciphered;

• Krishna says “The 7 great sages and the 4 ancient Manus from whom the entire creation came into existence were born from him.
• Krishna is Vishnu among the 12 sons of Aditi,
• Chapter 10 has 42 slokas
• These numbers were used to describe space and time

Krishna describes himself with all the realities of nature ie. ‘I am the Sāma Veda amongst the Vedas, and Indra amongst the celestial gods. Amongst the senses I am the mind; amongst the living beings, I am consciousness. BG 10.22.’  Bhagavad Gita is described in duality and singularity. It’s with the Fibonacci sequence that Krishna represents himself when he says ‘I ‘and ‘Me’ in his material body. 

The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers where a number is found by adding up the two numbers before it. Starting with 0 and 1, the sequence goes 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, and so forth, the most common numbers in nature - the Fibonacci sequence. (Fibonacci brought to the attention of Europe the Hindu system for writing numbers. European tradesmen and scholars were still clinging to the use of the old Roman numerals; modern mathematics would have been impossible without this change to the Hindu system, which we call now Arabic notation since it came west through Arabic lands.) Fibonacci concluded from the Hindu system of numbers, that these were in harmony with Nature and it can be used to model or describe an amazing variety of phenomena, in mathematics, science, and art.

Bhagavad Gita has duality or number two as an optimal field size for decision making, where singularity is the only option for the final verdict. The number two is a symbolic representation of the state of duality which we experience objectively through our minds and the senses. It is the character of the Bhagavad Gita that gives you two options only for consideration at any given time. Yet it gives a selection of three fields to choose from.

If you're looking for the best field size consider an odd number and being a follower of Sanatan Vaidik Hindu Dharma I am influenced by number three. ‘Trivaram Satyam’ became a mantra for those decisions when one more field was added to duality for a conclusive argument.  Once singularities from many such arguments are repeated thrice I consider that to be the righteous decision, or three decisions of one order when repeated becomes the logical truth of an argument.

Five is another odd number that always brings about a singular decision from the many fields of arguments is the Panchayat system (from Sanskrit punch is five a former group of five influential older men acknowledged by the community as its governing body) in India which is still a practical system for decision making. Aimed at a decision to be made, three has to be in majority from the five, again ‘Trivaram Satyam is the conclusive judgment.
2, 3, and 5 are natures number or the  Fibonacci sequence  

In the Sanatan Vaidik Hindu Dharma, each number has a universal harmony in the cosmic science. Find more details on https://www.hinduwebsite.com/numbers.asp

Why the number 137 is one of the greatest mysteries in physics

• The fine structure constant has mystified scientists since the 1800s. 
• The number 1/137 might hold the clues to the Grand Unified Theory. 
• Relativity, electromagnetism and quantum mechanics are unified by the number.

Does the Universe around us have a fundamental structure that can be glimpsed through special numbers?
The brilliant physicist Richard Feynman (1918-1988) famously thought so, saying there is a number that all theoretical physicists of worth should "worry about". He called it "one of the greatest damn mysteries of physics: magic the number that comes to us with no understanding by man".
That magic number, called the fine structure constant, is a fundamental constant, with a value that nearly equals 1/137. Or 1/137.03599913, to be precise. It is denoted by the Greek letter alpha - α.

 Krishna is not a being who exists in time; he is the being because of whom time exists. Arjuna expresses his complete satisfaction with the glories of Krishna in Chapter 10; however he is not yet convinced and confident. Arjuna was very keen to see the material body of Krishna in this time frame as a superior entity claimed by Krishna.

India’s famed gurukula system provides a yogic approach to learning that trains the character, instills self-control and develops a higher awareness, while supporting proficiency in all forms of knowledge. Bhagavad Gita is an ideal scripture that brings the gurukul system for this millennia with Krishna and Arjuna.

10 Me and My Gita

Arjuna, with a deeply meditative mind, listened to Krishna’s “I” “Me “and “My” stories and resolved it to be the finite truth, with a declaration that Krishna is a ‘Supreme Divine Personality’. Krishna takes advantage of the situation and finally divulges his entire association with creation, preservation, and dissolution of the entire cosmic truth. Arjuna lastly realizes that ‘Krishna is celestial’, out of this world and gets excited to know more about him

In chapter ten Krishna dominates the mind of Arjuna and the readers. A mind-blowing experience! Krishna finally reaches the climax in this chapter and divulges the truth and mentions that knowledge of truth is infinite and so is he.

The finite and the infinite’ TRUTH’ is paradoxical in our minds and Knowledge is synonymous with formal education.

• Would you say having all the university degrees is the final frontier for knowledge gatherers and one does not necessarily have to study the Bhagavad Gita, Vedas or philosophy.
• Is Krishna’s magnificent and splendid glory relevant in this time and age?
• Are you a victim of the slavery of many religious cults that prohibit the use of “I” “Me “and “My”?
• From the SWOT analysis of this Shravan Month, if knowledge and seeking truth are a weakness you identified, do you intend to do something about it or it has no relevance in one’s life?
• Are you the one who says all this is ‘CRAP’?

To appreciate the management of the manifested universe, this chart was introduced to Hindu children for the understanding of creation, preservation, and destruction. The material elements were provided by the Pancha Bhoota and the work (action) was carried out by the 5 nature gods with the supervision of the trinity. The administrator is Brahm the head for the existence of the universe.

The Pancha Bhoota, (five great elements, also, five physical elements is a group of five basic elements, which, according to Hinduism, is the basis of all cosmic creation.) provided the matter.

The five nature gods were instructed to assist in the creation, maintenance and dissolution of life on earth.

The trinity of supreme divinity in Hinduism in which the cosmic functions of creation, maintenance, and destruction are personified as a triad of deities, Brahma the creator, Vishnu the preserver, and Shiva the destroyer.

Brahm is just an instructor and a decision maker.

In the Gita, Krishna says that he is the creator, the preserver, the destroyer, the Pancha Bhoota, the 5 nature gods and Brahm the supreme.

So make your judgment, who is Krishna?
