Ramcharitmanas is one of the greatest Hindu Scriptures, where the "story" about Ram (Lord Ram) has been written. It is said: Tulsidas was the reincarnation of great sage Valmiki; Valmiki wrote Ramayana. If we check both Ramcharitmanas and Ramayana, both convey the same story about Ram. If we compare in terms of quantity, Ramcharitmanas can be said the shorter version of Ramayana. Often, Hindu Gurus asked people to read Ramcharitmanas daily, as it supposed to help in spiritual progress.

He was an enlightened master, he was crying … saying "people don’t understand their sufferings," not one, but Guru has seen many enlightened masters crying profusely, they feel others pains as their pains, others happiness as their happiness. Even, they know what has been created by the mind will end up in zero (nothing), every action will be finished in reaction and nothing will remain, apart from the awareness, non-dual identity, self, God or whatever you wish to say only exists. The people who are much mad about only one marg, i.e., sam marg or bam marg, they don’t know their sam marg will end in bam marg and bam marg will end in sam marg. There is nothing like only negative or only positive, things created by the mind end in balancing themselves.
Krishna could have stopped the war, innocent could be saved, Gandhari couldn’t have cursed him – but he didn’t. He let the people die in front of his eyes stabbing each other; even he encouraged Arjuna for killing. Krishna had all the knowledge of peace and love, all the knowledge of self realization and better life, but no one asked him (apart from Arjuna; Arjuna asked coz he got confused with the purpose of his life). And, without asking Krishna didn’t give the teachings. He enjoyed all the pros and cons, all the complexities and disasters – he played his life.
Arjuna asks to Krishna: what are nature, person, field and knower of the field?
Krishna says –
God is in both form and formless state. Worshiping God’s form is referred as- Bhakti Yoga, this is right brain oriented. And Worshiping God in invisible form is left brain oriented. The left brain is rational, analytical and problem solving, etc. The right brain is artistic, intuitive and subjective, etc.
The people who worship God as in invisible form, often says: God is the projection of mind; but the people who worship God in visible form, may take invisible form of God as atheism. But Gita is very clear, let’s carry on what Krishna says. Read More »

Krishna says –
Arjuna used to believe on Krishna; whatever Krishna said to him – he had the firm belief on that. But he was not completely cleared, so he further inquired to Krishna about Karma.
Krishna says –
With much frustration Arjuna surrenders to Krishna, and seeks guidance from Krishna. Here’s one thing of worth noticing – Krishna was with Arjuna from a long time, but he never forced spiritual knowledge to Arjuna – Krishna is only telling to Arjuna this time because Arjuna is seeking.
