meanings:
"Cancalam Hi Manah Krsna
Pramathi Balavaddrdham
Tasyaham Nigraham Manye Vayoriva Suduskaram"
This Sloka states that the Individual self is the
traveler in the chariot of the material body and the intelligence is the
driver. Mind is the driving instrument and the senses are the horses.
Thus, the self is the enjoyer or sufferer in the relationship of the
mind and senses.
"Balam Balavatam Caham
Kamaragavivarjitam
Dharmaviruddho Bhutesu Kamo'smi Bharatarsabha"
The Sloka says that God is detached and passionless
strength of the dominant and the virtuous craving in men.
Ye Caiva Sattvika Bhava
Rajasastamasasca Ye
Matta Everti Tanviddhi Na Tvaham Tesu Temayi
This Shloka tells that God is the only source of all
good (satva), obsessive (rajas) and dark (tamas) elements still, they
are not within the God nor the deity is within them.
"Tribhirgunamayairbhavairebhih
Sarvamidam Jagat
Mohitam Nabhijanati Mamebhyah Paramavyayam"
This Sloka states that the whole world is engrossed
in the three elements of Satva, Raja, and Tama .This is the reason,
people don't recognize the Eternal God who is beyond them.
"Daivi Hyesa Gunamayi Mama
Maya Duratyaya
Mameva Ye Prapadyante Mayametam Taranti Te"
The Shloka states that the celestial maya of God with
its threefold attributes is very complex. Yet, those who worship God are
able to conquer it.
"Na Mam Duskrtino Mudhah
Prapadyante Naradhamah
Mayayapahrtajnana Asuram Bhavamasritah"
This Shloka says that people who are attracted by
maya of God lose their mind. They get fascinated by the baser impulses
and stop worshipping God. These people are stupid and evil who don't
even understand that all these things are part of the web created by the
Almighty.
"Caturvidha Bhajante Mam
Janah Sukrtino'rjuna
Arto Jijnasurartharthi Jnani Ca Bharatarsabha"
This Sloka says that there are four kinds of good
people who worship god, those who desire earthly gains, those who are
suffering, those who seek knowledge and those who possess wisdom.
"Tesam Jnani Nityayukta
Ekabhaktirvisisyate
Priyo Hi Jnanino'tyarthamaham Sa Ca Mama Priyah"
This Shloka tells that out of the devotees, there are
some wise people who want something in return and the people who don't
expect any fruit in return of the worship. God loves the people who
don't expect anything in return as their love towards the god is true.
"Udarah Sarva Evaite, Jnani
Tvatmaiva Me Matam
Asthitah Sa Hi Yuktatma Mamevanuttamam Gatim"
This Sloka states that all those who worship God are
commendable. But the outstanding devotees, who worship God with the
single motive to merge in the God, are the true devotees who have
achieved the highest aim of life.
