Namaste,
On the auspicious Occasion of Guru Purnima (13-Jul-2022), happy to share Kapila Gita to all the seekers of truth.
Sri Kapila Gita is a part of Bhagvat Purana. It is found in Skanda 3 (Canto 3) as Chapters 23-33
Sri Kapila Gita is an excellent companion to the Bhagavad Gita. It compliments Bhagavad Gita by inducing karma, bhakti Jnana and Yoga. It specialises in expounding Sakhya Darshan and combining it with Bhakti and Jnana of Vedanta. It encourages one to practice Nishkama Karma (Selfless Service) and also explains in detail Maharshi Patanjali Ashtanga Yoga by specifying all eight limbs of Yoga. Sri Kapila Gita is unique in this aspect. Teachings of Bhagavad Gita’s Chapter 6, Atmasayyam Yoga meaning ‘Yoga of Self Control’ and Ashtanga Yoga for mind control and attaining inner purity compliment each other.
Though there is little difference between 24 tattvas as mentioned in original Sankhya Karika of Ishvara Krishna and Vedanta, such differences are negligible as compared to an attempt is made to combine the goodness of Sankhya Darshan with Vedanta. Genuine seekers of truth are encouraged to study Kapila Gita.
Prayer
My Humble Naman to my Guru, the
Supreme Self, Sri Ramakrishna and Sri Ramana Maharshi
All that you find good is my
Guru’s grace. All errors are mine.
May holy thoughts flow from all
directions. May we all benefit from this holy instructions of Kapila Muni. May
this work trigger interest in spirituality and may we take up the study of shastras,
always referring to the primary, original source rather than relying on random
articles, YouTube videos, social media, newspaper articles and just believing
on hearsay.
With the blessings and grace of
Guru and Ishvara, Gurus, Acharyas, Saints, Jnanis, Bhaktas and Yogis of all
traditions, Amrut, who is not a natural gifted writer, with his very limited
knowledge and experience, has humbly attempted translation of Sri Kapila Gita
with dual intention of presenting unbiased, non-sectarian view and retaining
the true meaning of shastras by retaining original sanskrit words for the
benefit of all.
Hari OM
