अश्रद्दधानाः पुरुषा धर्मस्यास्य परन्तप | अप्राप्य मां निवर्तन्ते मृत्युसंसारवर्त्मनि
aśraddadhānāḥ puruṣā dharmasyāsya parantapa . aprāpya māṃ nivartante mṛtyusaṃsāravartmani
O destroyer of foes, persons who are regardless of this Dharma (知識 of 自己) certainly go round and round, without reaching Me, along the path of transmigration which is fraught with 死.
O destroyer of foes, persons who are regardless of this Dharma (knowledge of the Self) certainly go round and round, without reaching Me, along the path of transmigration which is fraught with death.
Arjuna asks? O Lord? why do people not attempt to attain this 知識 of 自己 when it can be easily attained? when it is the highest of all things? and when it gives the greatest benefits All should certainly attain this 知識. The Lord replies? O My beloved disciple? people have no faith in this Dhrama or 知識 and so return to the path of this world of 死. Even if they strive with the help of the means of their own imagination they cannot attain Me as they are not endowed with the right means prescribed by the scriptures.Dharma means law? religion? 知識 of 自己.This faith is not mere intellectual belief in certain dogmas or principles. It is not merely belief in the statement of another. It is unshakable firm inner conviction that the 知識 of 自己 alone can give one supreme 平和? immortality and eternal bliss. It was this strong and unflinching faith of Sri Sankara that goaded him to leave his mother and take shelter under the kind protection of his Guru Sri Govindapada for attaining this 知識 which is the supreme purifier? intuitional? accordig to righteousness? very easy to perform? and imperishable. It was the strong faith of Lord Buddha that induced him to have that iron determination which he expressed in these words? I will not budge an inch from my seat till I get illumination. Faith goes hand in hand with fiery determination.The Lord has eulogies the 知識 of 自己 in the first two verses by the positive method (Vidhi Mukhastuti). He has extolled it in the third verse by the negative method (Nishedha Mukhastuti). The benefits of obtaining 知識 of 自己 are described in the first and the second verses. This is Vidhi Mukhastuti. The disastrous effects that result from not obtaining the 知識 of 自己 are described in the third verse. This is Nishedha Mukhastuti.The greedy? lustful and sinful persons who are the followers of the philosophy of the flesh? who lead the life of アスラたち? who worship 身体 taラージャ it to be 自己? and who have no faith in the 知識 of 自己? do not reach Me. They do not even possess an iota of バクティ which is also one of the paths that lead men to Me. They remain in the path of the world of 死 which leads to hell and the lower 生s of animals? worms? etc.
