2013-12 Bhagavad Gita: Divine Wealth - Daivi Sampat [BG16.1-3]
[Here is a very important lesson I learnt from the Bhagavad
Gita [16.1-3] – Divine Wealth. Twenty six [9+11+6 = 26] attributes are listed in the first three slokas of Chapter 16. The more we practice them in
our daily lives, the more do we manifest the Divinity within.]
1Fearlessness [ अभयम् ]
2 Purity of heart [सत्त्व संशुद्धि ]
3 Being established in
knowledge and yoga [ज्ञान योग व्यवस्थिति ]
4 Charity [दानं ]
5 Self Discipline [दम ]
6 Sacrifice [यज्ञ ]
7 Study of Scriptures [स्वाध्याय ]
8 Austerity [तप ]

10 Nonviolence [अहिंसा ]
11 Truth [सत्यं ]
12 Absence of Anger [अक्रोधं ]
13
Renunciation [त्याग ]
14 Peacefulness [शांति ]
