Introduction

Minutes to read.

This translation presents the authentic illumination of the entire knowledge of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita, providing an English summary of all 700 verses across 18 chapters. To date, no Hindu religious guru or translator of the Gita has accomplished this. Everyone has misled the innocent Hindu society by teaching them an incorrect interpretation. It is my request to human society to arrange a spiritual dialogue between these false gurus and myself; only then will the distinction between the enlightened and the ignorant be revealed. Read this translation carefully and with an open heart. You will understand for yourself what the reality is. In the creation of the universe and in the summary of the Gita, you will also gain knowledge regarding the parents of Shri Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh (Shiva), and who the husband of Goddess Durga is. Our religious gurus have failed to explain these facts, even though they are written in our own scriptures.

Srimad Bhagavad Gita is a concise form of the four Vedas (Rigveda, Yajurveda, Samveda, and Atharvaveda). In other words, it is "the ocean in a jar." There are eighteen thousand (18,000) verses (mantras) in the four Vedas, which have been distilled into 574 verses in the Gita. Consequently, the Gita contains many symbolic terms. Although there are seven hundred (700) verses in the Gita, 574 were spoken by Kaal Brahm through the medium of Shri Krishna; the remaining verses were spoken by Sanjay and Arjun and are not directly related to the imparting of knowledge.

The religious gurus of Hinduism failed to understand the symbolic words of the Gita. Because of this, they have distorted the meanings of the words. For example, in Gita Chapter 18, Verse 66, there is the word "Vraj." Its meaning is to go, go away, depart, or move far away. However, all translators of the Gita have interpreted "Vraj" as "to come." You may check this verse in the translation of any translator. The ISKCON translators have done something quite extraordinary: in Gita Chapter 18, Verse 66, they first provided the word-for-word meanings and then the translation below. In the word-for-word section, they translated "Vraj" as "Go," yet in the actual translation, they changed it to "Come unto my refuge."

Please see the photocopy of the word-for-word meanings and translation of Gita Chapter 18, Verse 66, published by the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust, Hare Krishna Dham, Juhu, Mumbai-400049, translated by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the Founder-Acharya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON).

This is the photocopy of Gita Chapter 18, Verse 66. In this, you can see that in the word-for-word meanings, they have translated "Vraj = Go," yet in the translation below, they have written, "Surrender unto Me."

Consider this: The meaning of the English word "Go" is to depart or move away. To translate this word as "to come" or "come" is nothing short of foolishness. Similarly, all translators of the Gita published by Gita Press Gorakhpur—such as Shri Jayadayal Goyandka, Shri Ramsukh Das Ji, and those who have received titles like Mahamandaleshwar Gita Manishi Shri Gyananand Ji, Adgadanand Ji, and other dignitaries—have failed to understand the deep secrets of the profound and symbolic words of the Gita. Instead of translating them correctly, they have distorted them, misleading the innocent public with incorrect interpretations.

There should be a ban on the Gita translations performed by them. The dignity of the Gita is being harmed in society by all those who have provided incorrect translations, and the public is not receiving the authentic message of the Gita.

For instance, in Gita Chapter 18, Verse 62, the giver of the Gita's knowledge is telling Arjun to go into the refuge of a Supreme God other than himself. The same context is present in Gita Chapter 18, Verse 66, the translation of which has been done incorrectly by distorting the meaning. Numerous such errors have been made in the translation of the Gita by everyone except Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj.

Translators of the Gita write that Shri Krishna spoke the knowledge of the Gita to Arjun. They consider Shri Krishna to be an incarnation of Vishnu—meaning Vishnu himself born from the womb of Mother Devaki—and they call Shri Vishnu, alias Shri Krishna, immortal (Avinashi). However, the giver of the Gita's knowledge, in Chapter 2, Verse 12, Chapter 4, Verse 5, and Chapter 10, Verse 2, describes himself as being subject to birth and death (perishable). He says, "O Arjun! You and I have had many births." Please see the photocopy of Gita Chapter 4, Verse 5, the translation of which has also been performed by Hindu religious gurus.

Other Evidence: Photocopy of the relevant section from the Shrimad Devi Mahapuran, Third Skand, Chapters 4-5, Page 123:

This is the photocopy of Shri Devi Puran. In this, Shri Vishnu Ji himself accepts that I (Vishnu), Shri Brahma, and Shri Shiva undergo "Avirbhav" (birth) and "Tirobhav" (death). It is also proved in this same photocopy that the one who gave birth to these three is Goddess Durga Ji (Ashtangi). The ignorant religious gurus of Hinduism claim that they have no parents. By telling many such mythical stories that are contrary to the scriptures, these ignorant people have ruined the Hindu society.

Hindu religious gurus instruct to worship Shri Vishnu Ji (Satgun), Shri Shiva Ji (Tamgun), and other gods and goddesses, whereas Gita Chapter 7, Verses 12–15 and 20–23 states that those who worship them are fools with a demoniac nature, the lowest among men, who perform evil deeds.

Hindu religious gurus describe Shri Brahma, Shri Vishnu, and Shri Shiva as "Ish" (the Masters of all), whereas in Shri Shiva Mahapuran Part 1, Vidyeshwar Samhita, Pages 17–18, Chapters 9–10, it is clear that Sadashiv (Kaal Brahm) is the father of Shri Brahma Ji, Shri Vishnu Ji, and Shiva Ji. This is the same entity who says in Gita Chapter 11, Verse 32, "I am Kaal." On page 17 of the Vidyeshwar Samhita Part 1, he manifested a pillar of light between the fighting Shri Brahma Ji and Shri Vishnu Ji to stop their battle and said, "You both are fighting over calling yourselves the 'Ish' (Master/Lord) of the world. You are not 'Ish'. All of this is mine. I have one OM (ॐ) mantra for worship, which is formed by the union of five components—A, U, M, Nada, and Bindu—to become the single syllable OM (ॐ)." This same entity, having entered Shri Krishna like a ghost, spoke the knowledge of the Gita. In Gita Chapter 8, Verse 13, he says that for me, Brahm, there is only the one syllable OM (ॐ) for chanting and remembrance.

I shall explain the context of Shri Shiva Puran: In the Vidyeshwar Samhita Part 1 of Shiva Puran, Kaal Brahm—who was present at that time in the guise of his son, Shiva—said, "O sons! I have five duties: Srishti (Creation), Sthiti (Preservation), Sanhar (Destruction), Tirobhav (Concealment/Death), and Anugrah (Grace). O sons Brahma and Vishnu! I have given the duty of Creation to you, Brahma, and Preservation to you, Vishnu, as a reward for your penance. I gave Sanhar (killing ordinary beings) to Rudra and Tirobhav (killing devotees and deities, etc.) to Mahesh; however, no one is capable of attaining the duty of 'Anugrah' (Grace)." (1.12)

This context from Shri Shiva Mahapuran proves that Shri Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva are not the "Ish"—meaning they are not the Masters (Lords) of the world. Their father is Kaal Brahm and their mother is Shri Devi (Durga), as written in the Shri Devi Bhagwat Puran (Devi Puran). Since Hindu religious gurus are not even acquainted with their own scriptures, they are not worthy of the position of a Guru. They have destroyed the human lives of Hindu devotees. By making them perform spiritual practices contrary to the scriptures, they have left them as beggars, thieves, dacoits, bribe-takers, and adulterators.

Gita Chapter 16, Verses 23 and 24 explicitly state that a seeker who abandons the injunctions of the scriptures and acts according to their own whimsical desires—meaning they perform spiritual practices not prescribed in the scriptures—attains neither happiness, nor spiritual power (Siddhi), nor the supreme goal (Gati/Liberation).

This is why, despite performing the arbitrary practices and charities suggested by false gurus with their body, mind, and wealth, seekers find neither peace in their families nor prosperity in their businesses—things every person expects from God's worship. Because the practice is contrary to the scriptures, no benefit is received from God. To compensate for this lack, people resort to crimes like theft, manipulation, bribery, fraud, and adulteration. After some time, they become atheists.

The Hindu society has been ruined by these Hindu gurus who are unfamiliar with scriptural knowledge. I (the author, Rampal Das) possess the authentic knowledge of the scriptures and the true mantras of remembrance as prescribed by the scriptures. These provide the seeker with happiness in the home and family, prosperity in agriculture and business, spiritual power (Siddhi), and complete salvation (Moksha). In this book, "Garima Gita Ki" (The Dignity of the Gita), you will find information regarding the authentic mantras of worship described in those scriptures. The chapters, verses, and page numbers of the scriptures are also provided so that you may verify them against your own scriptures for your satisfaction.

If any person (man or woman) reads these mantras in this book and begins to chant them, they will receive no benefit. Only by taking initiation from me, or through the method of initiation prescribed by me, and by performing spiritual practice while remaining within the lifelong codes of conduct (Maryada), will one receive all benefits and complete salvation (Moksha).

The Srimad Bhagavad Gita is the essence of the four Vedas (Rigveda, Yajurveda, Samveda, and Atharvaveda), and this book, "Garima Gita Ki," is the authentic essence of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita. I have extracted the butter from each chapter and purified it to create the ghee of the Gita-cow. Please read this, become authentically acquainted with the dignity of the Gita, and make yourself and your family blessed. Attain salvation by taking initiation (Naam-Diksha) from me.

All beings in the world are children of the one Supreme God, Kabir Ji—meaning they are souls created by the Almighty—who are enduring birth, death, and numerous sufferings in the realm of Kaal Brahm. Supreme God Kabir Ji desires that my souls recognize me through spiritual knowledge. Then, by performing true spiritual practice, they should go to the Eternal Supreme Abode (Satlok) and live a forever happy life. That Supreme God Himself revealed the true mantras of worship, evidence for which has been found in all scriptures. This has proved the significance of true spiritual practice. My conclusion is:

Jeev hamari jaati hai, Maanav dharm hamara | Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Isai, dharm nahin koi nyaara || (Living being is our caste, Humanity is our religion; Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian—there is no separate religion.)

Please read the divine essence of the Holy Gita in this book "Garima Gita Ki" and teach it to others. Show the path to those who are lost. There is no greater act of virtue (Punya) on this earth. My followers were astonished to see the facts with their own eyes in the scriptures. Accepting the truth, they immediately abandoned false practices and are making their lives blessed by taking initiation for true worship from me, this servant (Rampal Das). Simultaneously, by propagating this unique and authentic spiritual knowledge, they are earning merit by showing the true path to those who have gone astray. They are engaged in this propagation while enduring troubles caused by the innocent public influenced by false gurus. They consider you their brothers and sisters and aim for your welfare. The author’s objective is also the welfare of human society.

Understand the spiritual knowledge explained by me. Investigate it thoroughly. Then join us. Perform worship while staying within the codes of conduct. You will then feel the direct benefits manifest. You will deeply regret the time in your past human life wasted on futile practices. Upon finding the path of true worship and coming into the refuge of Supreme God Kabir Ji, you will offer millions of thanks to those devotees, sisters, and mothers who brought the true knowledge and message of true worship of God to your doorstep through these books. You will feel as one feels when narrowly escaping the jaws of death—safe, yet still sensing the gravity of the danger. You will reflect: "O Supreme God Kabir Ji! Which good deed from our past lives has borne fruit, granting us Your refuge? If we had not read or heard this Tattvagyan, we would have been plundered. Our priceless human life would have been destroyed."

Therefore, without delay, come to your nearest initiation center (Naamdan Kendra) and secure your welfare by taking initiation.
