Part I .Bhagawad Gita Dhyanam
(Priminary prayer
to get prepared to read Gita)
Translated by
P.R.Ramachander
(Those who do Parayana of Bhagawad Gita, should
chant this prayer before starting reading Gita. This remarkable
prayer brings out the greatness of Bhagawad Gita
brilliantly. I do not know who is the author of this Dhyanam.)
1.Om Parthaya prathi boditham
bhagawathaa narayanena swayam,
Vyasaena grahitham Purana muninaa madhye
Mahabaratham,
Advaithamrutha varshaneem bhagawtheem ashta
dasa dhyayineem,
Ambaa thwaam anusandadhami bhagwad geethaa
bhava dweshineem.
That which was taught to Arjuna by Lord
Narayana himself,
Which was written by the epic sage
Vyasa in the middle of Mahabaratha,
Oh Mother goddess who showers the nectar of
advaitha called the Bhagawad Gita ,
Which has eighteen chapters , I meditate on
you mother who removes all past karma
2. Namosthuthe Vyasa vishala budhe, phullaravindata
tha pathra nethra,
Yena thwayaa Bharatha thaila poorna
prajjvalitho jnanamaya pradheepa.
Salutations to Vyasa who has immense intellect ,
who has eyes like petals of a lotus flower,
Who has filled up the oil
to the lamp of Mahabaratha , and lighted it to pinpoint
wisdom.
3.Prapanna parijataya , totra vetraika panaye ,
Jnana mudhraaya Krishnaaya geethamritha duhe
nama.
Salutations to Krishna who is a wish giving tree,
who holds a cane to drive the cattle ,
Who also shows the seal of Jnana , and
gave us all the nectar of Gita.
4.Sarvaopanishadho gaavo dogdhaa Gopala Nandana,
Parthoo vathsa sudheer bhokthaa dugdam
Geetamritham mahath.
All the Upanishads are the cows and Krishna is the one
who milks them,
Arjuna is the calf , The devotees are the
consumers of the great nectar of Gita.
5.Vasudeva sutham devam kamsa Chanoora mardhanam,
Devaki paramanandam Krishnam vande Jagat
Gurum.
I salute the teacher of the world , who is the son of
Vasudeva ,
Who killed Kamsa and Chanoora and is the one
who gave divine joy to Devaki.
6.Bheeshma drona thata jayadradha
jalaa , Gandhaara neelothphala,
Shalyaaa grahavathee , kripena vahanee , karnena
Velakulaa,
Aswathama Vikarnaa ghora Makaraa Duryodhana
varthinee,
Sotheerno kalu Pandavai , rana nadhee kaivarthaka Kesava.
Bheeshma and Drona were two banks , Jayadrada was the
water, Sakuni the king of Gandhara was the blue lotus,
Salya was the crocodile , Kripa was the tide , Karna was
the mighty wave,
Aswathama and Vikarna were the dangerous alligators
and Duryodhana was the whirlpool,
And the Pandavas crossed this river of war
with Krishna as their helmsman.
7.Parashrayaa vacha sarojamamalam
Geethartha gandothkatam,
Nanakhyanaka kesaram harikatha sambodhanaa bodhitham,
Loke sajjana shat padairaharaha pepeyamaanam

Bhooyad Bharatha pankajam kali
mala pradhwamsina shreyase.
Let the lotus flower of Mahabharata, which arose from the
water,
Which are the words of son of Parasara, which
has the pollen grains of different stories,
Which is taught in the form of stories of Lord Vishnu ,
That is drunk by the honey bee
of very good people,
Help those who want to remove the ills of
Kali age.
8.Mookam karothi vaachaalam , pankhum
lankayathe girim,
Yath krupa thaham vandhe Paramananda madhavam.
I salute that Madhava of divine joy , whose
graceful mercy,
Makes the dumb as master of words and the lame
to cross the mountain.
9.Yam brahmaVaruna indrua Rudra maruthsthunvanthi divyai
sthavai,
Vedai saang padakrama upanishadair gayanthi yam
SAmaga,
Dhyanasthitha thadgadaina manasa pasyanthi
yam Yogino,
Yasyaantham na vidhu surasura ganaa devaaya thasmai
nama.
I salute him who is worshipped by divine chants
by Brahma, Varuna, Indra , Rudra and Vayu,
Who is pleased by singers of Sama Veda by
singing Vedas and Upanishads by following the word sequence,
Who is seen by yogis who are absorbed in him, with their
mind merging in him,
And whose end is not known even
by the hoards of devas and Asuras.
Part II. Ashta Dasa
Sloki
(a selection of one sloka from each chapter of tyhe Bhagawad gita for daily
Parayana Purpose by a great
divine soul, so that people can do the Parayana of Gita daily)
I saw this great selection
1.na Kamksha vijayam Krishna na cha Rajayam Sukhani cha,
Kim no Rajyena
Govinda kim bhogair jeevithena va 1.32
I do not desire victory Krishna, or country or pleasure,
What is the use in having this country Govinda,
And what is the use in having a pleasure filled life?
For what is the point in having a country or even life 1.32

The differentiation and function of the senses,
Would understand that these senses,

The act of sacrifice is God,
The material that is being sacrificed is God,
This material is being sacrificed in fire which is god,
This sacrifice that is being performed is by God,
And so the one who attains the Samadhi,
By performing actions, attains God. 24

Oh Pandava, the transcended one does not hate,

When these properties come up,
And he does not feel sorry when they cease. 22
