Taking Refuge in Gita
continued....
In Gita, there is a description of various different types of “yogis” - Karmayogi, Jnanayogi, Dhyaanyogi etc. But the Lord has only called Bhaktiyogi, in other words, one who takes refuge in God as rare, great soul -
"Bahunaam janmanaamante jnaanavaanmaam prapadyate,
Vasudevah sarvamiti sa Mahaatmaa sudurlabhah."
(Gita 7:19)
"In the very last of all births (i.e. in the human birth) the man of realization, worships Me, realizing that all is God. Such a great soul is very rare."
(Gita 7:19).
God has called a “Mahatma” as a rarity, but has called Himself as easily attainable -
Ananyachetaah satatam yo maam smriti nityasha
Tasyaahum sulabh paarth, nitya yuktasya yoginah.
"O You Delighter of Prthaa! (the Son of Prthaa!). He who always, exclusively and constantly thinks of Me (remembers Me) with undivided mind, to that Yogi always absorbed in Me, I am easily attainable." (Gita 8:14) i.e. I can be easily attainable by such a Yogi. (continued....)
