Bhagavad Gita’s Timeless Wisdom: Predicting the Modern World’s Struggles

In the fast-paced and ever-changing world we live in, it’s often enlightening to turn to ancient texts for wisdom and insight. One such timeless scripture is the Bhagavad Gita, which remarkably predicted the challenges and dynamics of our modern society over 5,700 years ago. In this blog post, I will take you on a journey through the verses of the Bhagavad Gita that accurately foreshadow the state of affairs in today’s world.

Kaliyug (the dark age of demon Kali) began with the onset of the Mahabharat War about 5700 years ago

** 1: The Diminishing Virtues**
The Bhagavad Gita, in its profound wisdom, stated, “Religion, truthfulness, cleanliness, tolerance, mercy, duration of life, physical strength, and memory will all diminish day by day because of the powerful influence of the age of Kali.” This verse reflects the erosion of these virtues in our time, highlighting the need to rekindle them for the betterment of humanity.

** 2: Wealth as a Benchmark**
In Kali Yuga, the Gita predicts that “wealth alone will be considered the sign of a man’s good birth, proper behavior, and fine qualities.” Our society often measures success and worth by material possessions, echoing the Gita’s foresight.

** 3: Superficial Attraction and Deceit in Relationships**
The text goes on to foresee that “men and women will live together merely because of superficial attraction, and success in business will depend on deceit.” These predictions are uncannily accurate in describing some of the challenges in modern relationships and commerce.

** 4: External Symbols vs. True Spirituality**
The Bhagavad Gita predicts, “A person’s spiritual position will be ascertained merely according to external symbols.” In today’s world, the emphasis on outward appearances often overshadows genuine spiritual growth and connection.

** 5: Hypocrisy Accepted as Virtue**
The verse that mentions “hypocrisy will be accepted as virtue” mirrors the prevalence of insincerity and duplicity in our society, emphasizing the importance of authenticity.

** 6: The Shift in Sacred Places**
In a world where sacredness is often reduced to convenience, the Gita foresaw that “a sacred place will be taken to consist of no more than a reservoir of water located at a distance.” This highlights the need to reconnect with the spiritual essence of our surroundings.

** 7: The Triumph of the Strongest**
The prediction that “whoever among any of the social classes shows himself to be the strongest will gain political power” reflects the power struggles and polarization that dominate our contemporary politics.

** 8: Struggles of Survival**
The Bhagavad Gita foretells that people will face hardships such as “famine and excessive taxes.” These predictions resonate with the economic challenges and inequalities of our time.

** 9: Climate and Societal Issues**
Lastly, the Gita mentions the suffering caused by “cold, wind, heat, rain, snow, quarrels, hunger, thirst, disease, and severe anxiety.” These words seem to mirror the climate crises and the mental health challenges that we grapple with today.

The Bhagavad Gita’s prophetic verses serve as a powerful reminder of the cyclical nature of human existence. While it paints a somber picture of the challenges we face, it also offers guidance on how to navigate these troubled waters. As we reflect on these ancient insights, let us strive to restore the values of truth, compassion, and spirituality in our lives, working collectively for the betterment of humanity.

If you truly want to not just survive but have success in this age

  • Do shivling sthapna,
  • Do daily puja sadhna with the shivling,
  • Do mantra sadhana with the maha panchakshari mantra and add the beej Om to it,
  • Do dhyan sadhna on the shivling!
  • & DO THE ABOVE DAILY (TWICE)

Here you go, I just gave you the pinnacle of yoga through which not only can you survive the Kaliyug but also achieve moksh. Everything else is just megre show and technicalities and it’ll save you the 2000€ + the 9 months of time on those yoga teacher training’s.

Remember” I can not change the world, but I will change my world by changing myself”

The hidden truth of Mahabharata

An amazing interpretation of the Mahabharata which applies to all of us, please read the whole story, for it is bound to add value to your life and make you understand something new which you never knew existed.

It was said in the texts that eighty percent of the fighting male population of the civilization was wiped out in the eighteen days of the war.
Sanjay , at the end of the war went to the spot where the greatest war took place; Kurukshetra.

He looked around and wondered if the war really happened, if the ground beneath him had soaked all that blood, if the great Pandavas and Krishna stood where he stood.
“You will never know the truth about that!” said an aging soft voice.

Sanjay turned around to find an Old man in saffron robes appearing out of a column of dust – “I know you are here to find out about the Kurukshetra war, but you cannot know about that war till you know what the real war is about.”

The Old man said enigmatically – “What do you mean?”
“The Mahabharata is an Epic, a ballad, perhaps a reality but definitely a philosophy.”
The Old man smiled luring Sanjay into more questions.

Sanjay requested – “Can you tell me what the philosophy is then?”

Sure, began the Old man – “The Pandavas are nothing but your five senses, sight, smell, taste, touch and sound and do you know what the Kauravas are?”

he asked narrowing his eyes. – “The Kauravas are the hundred vices that attack your senses everyday but you can fight them and do you know how?”

Sanjay shook his head again.
The Old man smiled brighter and said – “When Krishna rides your chariot!”

Sanjay gasped at that gem of insight.

“Krishna is your inner voice ,your soul, your guiding light and if you let your life in his hands you have nothing to worry.”

Sanjay was stupefied but came around quickly with another question-“Then why are Dronacharya and Bhishma fighting for the Kauravas, if they are vices?”

The Old man nodded, sadder for the question.

“It just means that as you grow up your perception of your elders change. The elders who you thought were perfect in your growing up years are not all that perfect. They have faults. And one day you will have to decide if they are for your good or your bad.

Then you may also realize that you may have to fight them for the good. It is the hardest part of growing up and that is why the Geeta is important.”

Sanjay slumped down on the ground, not because he was tired but because he could understand and was struck by the enormity of it all.

“What about Karna?” he whispered.

“Ah!” said the Old man. “You have saved the best for last. Karna is the brother to your senses, he is desire, he is a part of you but stands with the vices. He feels wronged and makes excuses for being with the vices as your desire does all the time.

Does your desire not give you excuses to embrace vices?”

Sanjay nodded silently. He looked at the ground, consumed with a million thoughts, trying to put everything together and then when he looked up the Old man was gone.

He seemed to have disappeared in the column of dust. Leaving behind the great philosophy of Life.
