It was not merely an idle discourse but the actual revelation of the very thing needed for a true pursuit of the Divine path. Not for realisation. The Divine path is to be in tune with the Divine. Here live with Divine. Express the Divine. Show his greatness. Nothing to do with realisation as such. The Divine path ultimately leads you there. Here the point is the thing needed for a true pursuit of the Divine path. Kindly note the words.
They relate directly to the various conditions which an abhyasi passes through during the course of his march. We will have an occasion to talk about it. It related to the practical realisation of those conditions which can be attained through proper sadhana. We must in this context remember that Arjuna was always having the company of Lord Krishna, in his life. He was one of those fortunate persons. His exposure to Krishna is something that was continuous and constant and it made him a devotee. There was a sadhana going on simultaneously which the Mahabaratha may not talk to us. But if you apply your head and then start thinking, if a person has been living with the Master all the time he could not help at least certain amount of effect of fomentation. There was a sadhana going on. At least he had the wisdom to seek guidance at the appropriate time, and this he has been doing all the time, that viveka is there, that I do not know. He knows more. God knows more. Let us seek his guidance. Babuji said if you are in difficulty why do you think of difficulties, think about me. The difficulty will be over and I will also be there with you. But most of us worry about difficulties during meditation and other times also. At the other times I can understand but why in meditation also. This is what we do. We do not want the company of God though he is very much available. But Arjuna had the wisdom. He was doing his sadhana.
