So, while everybody sings in praise of God, the song is remembered, the tune is remembered, God is forgotten. The casualty in singing is, we remember the taala, raaga etc and also the words but in the process, we miss the essence because of it being sensory in its knowledge. Senses take over and they dictate terms as to how we should experience and such a thing has happened even for Bhagavad Gita. That is what He says. Even for the song of God, the same thing has happened and that has led to various commentaries given on the subject. Now, why commentaries were written is a question. Not because they wanted to write commentaries. If any person were to propound a new system, they have to somehow or the other, integrate the meaning of the Upanishads, then the Vedanta sutras and also the Bhagavad Gita. If the common philosophy is not built keeping in view the statements given here, it
will not be accepted as something that is right.
