Description

Acharya Prashant explains that Shri Krishna's teachings in the Bhagavad Gita regarding the moment of death are not about physical death or the atma, but rather the death of the mind. Since the mind is constantly changing, death is a continuous process occurring in every moment. Shri Krishna advises that if one remains with Him in the present moment, it becomes easier to remain with Him in the next. He emphasizes that while He cannot be the object of thought, He must be the purpose or foundation of all thoughts. This means that whatever worldly object one thinks of, the intention should be to reach contentment, completion, and liberation.
