VICTORY IS SURE

The last sloka of the Gita says, “Yathra Yogeswarah Krishna Yathra Partho Dhanurdharah, Thathra Sreer Vijayo Bhuthi Dhruva Neethir Mathir Mama,” where there is Krishna the supreme Yogi and where also there is Arjuna bearing his bow, there victory for truth and justice is assured.”

This verse assures victory not only when the Mahabharatha Arjuna wields the bow in the presence of Krishna. Every one of you can be Arjuna and wield the bow and achieve victory. For the bow is but the symbol of courage and faith, of high resolve and undaunted action.

And how can you become Arjunas? Arjuna means white, pure, unsullied, without blemish. As soon as you become that and hold the bow (the Upanishads declare that the Pranava or Om is the arrow and God is the target), Krishna is ready with His presence, for He is everywhere at every moment. There is no need to invite Him or install Him. He will answer from your very heart.
