About this ebook
In chapter four Lord Krishna describes a refinement of Cosmic Consciousness in which the perception of the relative states of consciousness is cultured to reveal the underlying celestial quality of life. Krishna shows this state to Arjuna when He describes their previous incarnations in verse five, saying “I know them all but you know them not.” This portrayal of all-knowingness by the Lord begins to reveal His divine character to Arjuna, vouchsafed in the state of God Consciousness.
In this chapter Lord Krishna will also describe various means of self-purification for development of higher states of consciousness culminating in realization of the Self gained in meditation, the highest form of purification.
About the author
The author of the Bhagavad-Gita is the enlightened sage Veda Vyasa. Five thousand years ago Vyasa wrote the Mahabhrata, one of India's two great epics, which has the text of the Gita at its core. It is said that in the Gita, the pocketbook of the Veda, Vyasa churned the cream of the Upanishads and put the butter in the mouth of Krishna.
