In this special concluding episode, we move beyond the sequential chapters to explore the Glory of the Gita and the deep philosophical frameworks that underpin this sacred text. Drawing from the Varaha Purana and the teachings of Sri Madhwacharya, we examine why the Gita is considered an embodiment of Dharma and how its verses serve as a guide for navigating the "river of worldly afflictions".

In this concluding episode of our series, we explore Chapter 18, the longest chapter of the Bhagavad Gita with 78 verses. This chapter serves as a comprehensive summary of the entire dialogue, offering a final synthesis of how to achieve Moksha (liberation) through the integration of action, knowledge, and devotion.

Following our exploration of divine and demoniac traits in Chapter 16, this episode delves into Chapter 17 of the Bhagavad Gita, known as Shraddhatraya Vibhaga Yoga. In this chapter, Lord Krishna reveals that faith is not merely a set of beliefs but a reflection of the soul’s innate nature. Every person has faith, and that faith defines their personality and determines how they interact with the world.

In this episode, we explore Chapter 16 of the Bhagavad Gita, titled Daivasura Sampat Vibhaga Yoga (The Division of the Divine and the Demoniac). This chapter serves as a profound psychological map, detailing the intrinsic traits that define human character and determining which paths lead to spiritual liberation and which lead to downfall.

In this episode, we delve into Chapter 15 of the Bhagavad Gita, a chapter so profound that its 20 verses contain exactly 700 letters—mirroring the 700 verses of the entire Gita. Known as Purushottama Yoga, this chapter is considered by many to hold the core teachings of the Lord, establishing the supremacy of the Almighty over all of existence.

In this episode, we explore the mechanics of personality through the lens of Chapter 14 of the Bhagavad Gita. While we previously learned about the "field" of activity, we now dive into the three forces—Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas—that act within that field to bind the eternal soul to the physical body.

In this episode, we dive into Chapter 13 of the Bhagavad Gita, titled Kshetra Kshetrajna Yoga (The Field and the Knower of the Field). As Arjuna seeks to understand the complex interrelationships between the Lord, individual souls, and inert nature, Lord Krishna provides a profound breakdown of the human experience and the divine presence within it.

This episode explores Chapter 12, Bhakti Yoga, which serves as a vital transition from the awe-inspiring and terrifying "Universal Form" witnessed in the previous chapter to the intimate practice of devotion. According to the sources, this chapter focuses on the Path of Devotion as the most direct means to reach the Divine.
