Bhagavad Gita DVD 10 (05:55)

एतां विभूतिं योगं च मम यो वेत्ति तत्त्वतः  ।

सोऽविकम्पेन योगेन युज्यते नात्र संशयः  ॥७॥

etāṁ vibhūtiṁ yogaṁ ca mama yo vetti tattvataḥ /

so’vikampena yogena yujyate nātra saṁśayaḥ  //7// 

(beginning of verse no audio)

My aiśvari (glory), My kingdom, and yoga, whoever understands [these] in the real sense, he, without any doubt, he is united in yoga and union with My supreme state of Bhairava.

JOHN: What number?

DVD 10 (06:43)

अयं सर्वस्य प्रभव इतः सर्वं प्रवर्तते  ।

इति मत्वा भजन्ते मां बुधा भावसमन्विताः  ॥८॥

ayaṁ sarvasya prabhava itaḥ sarvaṁ pravartate /

iti matvā bhajante māṁ budhā bhāvasamanvitāḥ  //8//

I am the creator of everybody, itaḥ sarvaṁ, I am the producer of everybody. This way, whoever knows Me, he is really a realized soul and he has got full faith in Me.

How [does] he act in his remaining period of life?

DVD 10 (07:24)

मच्चित्ता मद्गतप्राणा बोधयन्तः परस्परम्  ।

कथयन्तश्च मां नित्यं तुष्यन्ति रमयन्ति च  ॥९॥

maccittā madgataprāṇā bodhayantaḥ parasparam /

kathayantaśca māṁ nityaṁ tuṣyanti ramayanti ca  //9//

Mat cittā,they focus their minds towards Me. Madgataprāṇā,their life is, their breath is, in Me, situated in Me. Bodhayantaḥ parasparam,they discuss and sing the glory of Me with each other (they are situated collectively and they discuss the glory of Parabhairava together), kathayantaśca māṁ nityaṁ, and they are always explaining My history, everywhere. Tyuṣyanti ramayanti, and they are quite happy and they make others also happy, their presence makes others also happy.
