DEVETO POGLAVLJE
Chapter Nine
Najpovjerljivije znanje
The Most Confidential Knowledge
- STIH 1:
- Svevišnja Božanska Osoba reče: Dragi Moj Arjuna, budući da Mi nikada ne zavidiš, prenijet ću ti ovo najpovjerljivije znanje i spoznaju, zahvaljujući kojem ćeš biti oslobođen bijeda materijalnog postojanja.
- TEXT 1:
- The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: My dear Arjuna, because you are never envious of Me, I shall impart to you this most confidential knowledge and realization, knowing which you shall be relieved of the miseries of material existence.
- STIH 2:
- Ovo je znanje kralj naobrazbe, tajnije od svih tajni. Potpuno je čisto i predstavlja savršenstvo religije, jer zahvaljujući spoznaji omogućuje neposredno opažanje jastva. Vječno je i s radošću se primjenjuje.
- TEXT 2:
- This knowledge is the king of education, the most secret of all secrets. It is the purest knowledge, and because it gives direct perception of the self by realization, it is the perfection of religion. It is everlasting, and it is joyfully performed.
- STIH 3:
- Oni koji nisu vjerni predanom služenju ne mogu Me dostići, o pokoritelju neprijatelja. Zato se vraćaju putu rađanja i umiranja u materijalnom svijetu.
- TEXT 3:
- Those who are not faithful in this devotional service cannot attain Me, O conqueror of enemies. Therefore they return to the path of birth and death in this material world.
- STIH 5:
- A ipak sve što je stvoreno ne počiva u Meni. Pogledaj Moje mistično obilje! Premda održavam sva živa bića i prisutan sam svuda, nisam dio ovoga kozmičkog očitovanja, jer je Moje Jastvo sam izvor kreacije.
- TEXT 5:
- And yet everything that is created does not rest in Me. Behold My mystic opulence! Although I am the maintainer of all living entities and although I am everywhere, I am not a part of this cosmic manifestation, for My Self is the very source of creation.
- STIH 7:
- O Kuntīn sine, na kraju milenija sva materijalna očitovanja ulaze u Moju prirodu, a na početku sljedećega milenija Svojom ih moći ponovno stvaram.
- TEXT 7:
- O son of Kuntī, at the end of the millennium all material manifestations enter into My nature, and at the beginning of another millennium, by My potency, I create them again.
- STIH 10:
- O Kuntīn sine, materijalna priroda, jedna od Mojih energija, pod Mojim nadzorom stvara sva pokretna i nepokretna bića. Po njezinim zakonima ovaj svijet iznova i iznova biva stvoren i uništen.
- TEXT 10:
- This material nature, which is one of My energies, is working under My direction, O son of Kuntī, producing all moving and nonmoving beings. Under its rule this manifestation is created and annihilated again and again.
- STIH 12:
- Takve zbunjene osobe privlače demonska i ateistička gledišta. U takvu obmanutu stanju sve njihove nade u dostizanje oslobođenja, njihove plodonosne djelatnosti i pokušaji stjecanja znanja bivaju osujećeni.
- TEXT 12:
- Those who are thus bewildered are attracted by demonic and atheistic views. In that deluded condition, their hopes for liberation, their fruitive activities, and their culture of knowledge are all defeated.
- STIH 13:
- O Pṛthin sine, velike duše, koje nisu obmanute, nalaze se pod zaštitom božanske prirode. One su potpuno zaokupljene predanim služenjem, jer Me znaju kao prvobitnu i neiscrpnu Svevišnju Božansku Osobu.
- TEXT 13:
- O son of Pṛthā, those who are not deluded, the great souls, are under the protection of the divine nature. They are fully engaged in devotional service because they know Me as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, original and inexhaustible.
- STIH 15:
- Drugi, koji se žrtvuju njegujući znanje, obožavaju Svevišnjega Gospodina kao jednoga bez premca, kao različitog u mnogima i kao kozmički oblik.
- TEXT 15:
- Others, who engage in sacrifice by the cultivation of knowledge, worship the Supreme Lord as the one without a second, as diverse in many, and in the universal form.
- STIH 16:
- Ja sam obred, žrtvovanje, ponuda precima, ljekovito bilje i transcendentalna mantra. Ja sam maslac, vatra i ponuda.
- TEXT 16:
- But it is I who am the ritual, I the sacrifice, the offering to the ancestors, the healing herb, the transcendental chant. I am the butter and the fire and the offering.
- STIH 17:
- Ja sam otac ovoga svemira, majka, djed i potpora. Ja sam cilj znanja, pročišćavatelj i slog oṁ. Ja sam Ṛg, Sāma i Yajur Veda.
- TEXT 17:
- I am the father of this universe, the mother, the support and the grandsire. I am the object of knowledge, the purifier and the syllable oṁ. I am also the Ṛg, the Sāma and the Yajur Vedas.
- STIH 18:
- Ja sam cilj, održavatelj, gospodar, svjedok, prebivalište, utočište i najdraži prijatelj. Ja sam stvaranje i uništenje, temelj svega, počivalište i vječno sjeme.
- TEXT 18:
- I am the goal, the sustainer, the master, the witness, the abode, the refuge and the most dear friend. I am the creation and the annihilation, the basis of everything, the resting place and the eternal seed.
- STIH 20:
- Oni koji proučavaju Vede i piju napitak somu, želeći se uzdići na rajske planete, obožavaju Me posredno. Pročišćeni od grešnih posljedica, rađaju se na Indrinom pobožnom, rajskom planetu, na kojem uživaju u rajskim zadovoljstvima.
- TEXT 20:
- Those who study the Vedas and drink the soma juice, seeking the heavenly planets, worship Me indirectly. Purified of sinful reactions, they take birth on the pious, heavenly planet of Indra, where they enjoy godly delights.
- STIH 21:
- Kada se nakon uživanja u velikim, rajskim osjetilnim zadovoljstvima rezultati njihovih pobožnih djela iscrpe, ponovno se vraćaju na ovaj smrtni planet. Tako oni koji slijede načela triju Veda želeći osjetilno uživanje stječu samo uzastopno rađanje i umiranje.
- TEXT 21:
- When they have thus enjoyed vast heavenly sense pleasure and the results of their pious activities are exhausted, they return to this mortal planet again. Thus those who seek sense enjoyment by adhering to the principles of the three Vedas achieve only repeated birth and death.
- STIH 22:
- Ali onima koji Me uvijek obožavaju s nepodijeljenom predanošću, meditirajući na Moj transcendentalni oblik, dajem ono što im nedostaje i čuvam ono što imaju.
- TEXT 22:
- But those who always worship Me with exclusive devotion, meditating on My transcendental form – to them I carry what they lack, and I preserve what they have.
- STIH 25:
- Oni koji obožavaju polubogove rodit će se među polubogovima, oni koji obožavaju pretke rodit će se među precima, oni koji obožavaju sablasti i duhove rodit će se među takvim bićima, a oni koji obožavaju Mene živjet će sa Mnom.
- TEXT 25:
- Those who worship the demigods will take birth among the demigods; those who worship the ancestors go to the ancestors; those who worship ghosts and spirits will take birth among such beings; and those who worship Me will live with Me.
- STIH 28:
- Na taj ćeš se način osloboditi vezanosti za rad i njegove povoljne i nepovoljne rezultate. Uma usredotočena na Mene u tom duhu odricanja, bit ćeš oslobođen i doći ćeš k Meni.
- TEXT 28:
- In this way you will be freed from bondage to work and its auspicious and inauspicious results. With your mind fixed on Me in this principle of renunciation, you will be liberated and come to Me.
- STIH 29:
- Nikome ne zavidim niti sam prema ikome pristran. Jednak sam prema svima, ali onaj tko Me služi s predanošću utemeljen je u Meni, Moj je prijatelj i Ja sam njegov prijatelj.
- TEXT 29:
- I envy no one, nor am I partial to anyone. I am equal to all. But whoever renders service unto Me in devotion is a friend, is in Me, and I am also a friend to him.
- STIH 30:
- Onaj tko predano služi, čak i ako počini najodvratnije djelo, treba se smatrati svetim, jer je pravilno utemeljen u svojoj odlučnosti.
- TEXT 30:
- Even if one commits the most abominable action, if he is engaged in devotional service he is to be considered saintly because he is properly situated in his determination.
- STIH 32:
- O Pṛthin sine, oni koji prihvate Moje utočište, čak i ako su niska roda – žene, vaiśye [trgovci] i śūdre [radnici] – mogu dostići vrhovno odredište.
- TEXT 32:
- O son of Pṛthā, those who take shelter in Me, though they be of lower birth – women, vaiśyas [merchants] and śūdras [workers] – can attain the supreme destination.
- STIH 33:
- Koliko se tek to može reći za pobožne brāhmaṇe, bhakte i svete kraljeve! Stoga, budući da si došao u ovaj privremeni, bijedni svijet, služi Me s ljubavlju.
- TEXT 33:
- How much more this is so of the righteous brāhmaṇas, the devotees and the saintly kings. Therefore, having come to this temporary, miserable world, engage in loving service unto Me.
- STIH 34:
- Uvijek misli na Mene, postani Moj bhakta, odavaj Mi poštovanje i obožavaj Me. Tako ćeš, potpuno svjestan Mene, sigurno doći k Meni.
- TEXT 34:
- Engage your mind always in thinking of Me, become My devotee, offer obeisances to Me and worship Me. Being completely absorbed in Me, surely you will come to Me.
