Regret leading to Determination!

Verse 1.15.30 (Phani Prji):

* This is shloka is making it clear that Krishna's activities are beyond the manifestations of time.
* Arjuna's anxiety was also part of this yoga maya manifestation. And then Arjuna as soon as he remembered Krishna's words, he became lord of his senses.
* In order to control our senses, we have to remember Guru and Krishna's words. As long as we are working for Guru and Krishna, we will be master of our senses. As soon as we are out, we become slave of our senses and we might not even know it.
* To the degree we remember Krishna, He will protect us. The problem is that our heart is so filled with anarthas, there is no place for Krishna. Answer is, whatever little we get through the association of devotees, we should always endeavor to make full use of it. For eg: Chanting, mind is carried away. Then we have to repent for forgiving Krishna and ask for his mercy for strong determination to rectify it and bring our minds again and again back to the name of Krishna!
* With this strong determination, our appetite for KC will increase. That's why Krishna is saying: man mana bhava mad bhakto....
* Why is the BG confidential knowledge? Because it cannot be understood without being in love with Krishna.
...
* Bhurjina Pr: Determination to chant and listen one mantra at a time is so important.
* It is so important to revive our original Krishna Consciousness.
