Faith in the Supreme Lord!

SB 2.6.29 (P Mji):

* Concept of sacrifice for the Supreme Lord and concept of offering to the Lord is being mentioned here
* BG: Whatever you do, whatever you offer....do it as an offering to me, Krishna says!
* Today's verse, sacrifice with proper rituals and satisfy the manifested and nonmanifested personalities, are the
keywords
* Manifested = Indra, non manifested = Lord
* Previous yugas, demigods used to travel planet to planet. But in today's yuga, this travel no longer can happen
* We believe only what we see, these days
 - Diseased mind causes our ability to see to go down
 - Our belief in scriptures also is not there
* Story: Of a milkmaid, having faith in God, walked over water.
 - moral: faith is the most imp thing for our spiritual life
 - Krishna says Arjuna to have complete faith and to cut the doubts with weapon of knowledge
 - A faithful man, dedicated, subdues his senses, then he quickly achieves supreme spiritual peace
* With this faith, then we can see the manifested and nonmanifested personalities
* BG: Acting in DS, renouncing the fruits of action... not bound by reactions of work
 - Krishna is telling the way to get this faith
