Verse 1.15.31 (Yugal Kishore Prji):
* So here, Arjuna here was overcome with grief and lamentation, in separation from Krishna.
* Then what did he do, he deeply meditated on the lotus feet of Krishna, His instructions in the form of BG, immediately all the trash and lamentation was gone.
* He became vishoka, free from lamentation.
* One instruction we can get from this verse is: Because he is an eternal associate of the Lord, he could not take the separation. But he overcome the grief by meditating on Krishna's instructions and His lotus feet.
* We are also in so much grief, we have to meditate on the instructions of Guru and Krishna's lotus feet.
* SP is making a point: Krishna is absolute. When you chant the name of Krishna, you are with Krishna. When you speak about Him, you are with Him. When we hear our pastimes, we are with Krishna.
* when we are absorbed in the holy name, we are with Krishna. Then we are making our existence spiritual.
* Krishna comes in the form of acharya ot train us. Guru gives Krishna's instructions, so when we follow them sincerely, we are actually following Krishna's instructions and hence achieve perfection.
* Without taking permission from senior Vaisnavas, we should not take any vows.
* Raghunath Das Goswami was feeling a lot of separation after the departure of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. But Srila Rupa and Sanatana Goswami asked him to continue to live and give lectures everyday on Mahaprabhu's life, near Radha Kunda.
* One of his disciples was Krsnadas Kaviraj Goswami, he noted everything and then wrote Sri Caitanya Caritamrita.
* Points to take back
- Dualities come from the misconception of the material body
- When we transcend them, fixed on serving Krishna, never failing in all circumstances, Krishna is telling that you are at once placed in Brahman and in your spiritual perspective!
