Chapter 3 Lesson 15

In the last lesson Krishna taught us that the seat of desires is the senses.
Now Krishna states: if you control your senses, you will be able to win over 'desires' which is the destroyer of knowledge and wisdom.
In verse 42 Krishna states:
1) Senses are superior to the body
2) Mind is superior to the senses
3) intellect is superior to the mind
4) Aatman is superior to the intellect.

My note:
Through meditation and deep awareness we break our false identifications and discover our divine nature. Then we continue to play the game, but without being attached to results.
I am reminded of a song:
Ab saunp diya is jee van ka sab bhaar tumhaare heathon mein
Hai jeet tumhaare heathon mein aur haar tumhaare haathon mien
And thus ends the third discourse.
