Nava Ekadasha Pancha Threen Bhavan Bhootheshu Yena Vai | Eskshaithadhyaikamapyeshu Thajjanam Mama Nishchitham ||

Bhagavan speaks “Oh! Udhdhava, I shall describe an incident took place after the great battle of Kurukshetra.  I have heard Beeshmapithamaha narrating the same to Dharmaputhra, it was after the great battle of Mahabharath, I was taken Pandavas to Bhishmapithamaha who was lying in the bed of arrows surprisingly did not let his soul in despair, waiting for the arrival of Uththarayana.  I have heard from Devavratha/Bheeshma, described the highest philosophy about ‘Gnana’, as Navadhwaras/nine gates, eleven Indhriyas/Ganana and Karma and mind and intellect, Panchabhootha, three virtues/Sathvik, Rajasik, and Tamasik, are under the influence of Prakrithi, are functioning in the presence of the supreme soul.  Oh! Udhdhava, Gnana is the knowledge of the Prakrithi that undergoes constant transformation and the ruin, and the supreme soul is eternal and changeless.  The supreme soul is the source of the functioning of all those Gnana, and Karma Indhriyas, mind and intellect, Panchabhootha, and nine gates, etc. even though the Prakrithi undergoes constant changes/aging, illness and ruin/death, the supreme soul/Sath remains unaffected by any of the changes in the body is called Vignana.  The supreme soul is indestructible; it was existed before the creation and will remain always.  Oh! Udhdhava, The nature of the supreme soul is clearly mentioned in Shastras and Shruthi, it can be experienced through the Indhriyas must have heard from the experiences of our forefathers, and it can be understood with your own observation, therefore elevate your soul to that Supreme Lord which is indestructible nature. Oh! Udhdhava, The devotion/Bhakthiyoga is the easiest method to elevate your soul.  The Bakthiyoga is relieving the mind and intellect from the interests of worldly matters, people, wealth, fame, richness and possession, and concentrating on the supreme soul with intense devotion and faith.”
