We continue our commentary on the Second Chapter of Bhagavad-gita, explaining the eternal nature of the soul. Because these comments are extemporaneous, they are only included in the podcast. If you are reading the blog, please download the podcast to get the complete material.

As the embodied soul continually passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. The self-realized soul is not bewildered by such a change. [Bhagavad-gita 2.13]

O son of Kunti, the nonpermanent appearance of happiness and distress, and their disappearance in due course, are like the appearance and disappearance of winter and summer seasons. They arise from sense perception, O scion of Bharata, and one must learn to tolerate them without being disturbed. [Bhagavad-gita 2.14]

O best among men [Arjuna], the person who is not disturbed by happiness and distress and is steady in both is certainly eligible for liberation. [Bhagavad-gita 2.15]

Those who are seers of the truth have concluded that of the nonexistent there is no endurance, and of the existent there is no cessation. This seers have concluded by studying the nature of both. [Bhagavad-gita 2.16]
