Thus, it is
very clear that the Bhagavad-Gita gives clear guidance as to what to do when
one has reached a state of depression, boredom, or has got some spare time; but
never should one engage in trivial worldly sensuous life. It is dangerous to
neglect the goal of life and engage oneself in trash collection. This is the
path of salvation. However, this advise does not apply to youngsters to whom
the Lord advises nishkama karma. To all other aged ones, it is bhakti marga,
jnyan marga and dhyana marga advised by the Lord. One must be very clear about
since youngsters should not neglect their duties and take to whole time rituals
and spiritual life, unless one is willing to tread this path willingly as
directed by the Lord, may be , due to purvarjit punya and acquired spiritual
knowledge and habit. Love of God is an exemplary svabhava of some blessed
jivas. It is innate for all persons totally merged in the Lord, blessed souls.
They do not aspire for worldly attainments. There are many such blessed souls
amongst us.
How to
recognize such an attained person? It is very easy. An attained person remains
uninvolved in the happenings around him. He will not be disturbed and he is
established in his Self at all times. He is free from attachments, likes and
dislikes; neither he is in sorrow and anguish in loss, nor is he elated with
joy in success.rAgadvESha vimukta, duHKEshu anudvighna manAh suKEShu

Nothing will
touch him. He is a sthitaprajnya. These are derived from the sayings of Shree
Krishna here (Ch.2). Hence, all names and forms are just vibrations of
electromagnetic waves (cit-shakti). The moment a state of equilibrium is
attained, the person becomes equanimous- of stable mind, a sthitaprajnya.
Different stages of attainments are presented in the Chart below.
