Dear Friends,
Lately I have been compiling Mantras from the Bhagvad Geeta to achieve various 'goals'

Mantra from the Bhagvad Geeta

Mantra for steadfastness in devotion

IV/ 5 Chapter 4 Verse 5
Sri Bhagavan uvaacha

Bahoono me vyateetani janmaani tava chaarjuna
Taanyaham veda sarvaani na twam vettha parantapa

The Blessed Lord said:
Many births of Mine have passed, as well of thine, O Arjuna
I know them all but thou knowest not, O Parantapa (scorcher of foes)

One would wonder why this Mantra has been recommended for ‘steadfastness in devotion’…my interpretation would be:
We are immortal Souls…as a Human Being our main aim is to Know that…however it is not an easy task…So if we learn that we continue the journey incarnating again and again and Krishna is with us…how can our Bhakti not yield fruit? We just need to have faith and persevere…like Shirdi Sai Baba recommends: Shraddhaa (Faith) and Saburi and (Patience)
