Lord Krishna tells Arjuna
that HE told this imperishable Yog to Sun to, Sun to Vivasvan, Vivasvan
to Manu and Manu to Ikshavaku.
This knowledge traveled through generations and after a long time,
now it has disappeared from the world. And Since Arjuna is HIS
devotee and friend, HE is is telling this to Arjuna. And this
Yog is secret.
Why is Yog secret?
Lord Krishna told that HE and
Arjuna have gone through may lives, but Arjuna doesn't
remember those while HE remembers. HE comes to earth to protect noble
people and to establish Dharama whenever required. Lord
Krishna also explains prescribed duties as per Vedic
classification.
One who knows the difference between
Karma, Akarma and
Vikrama, gets freedom from cycle
of life and death. These differences are mysterious and hard to
understand. (I will write about differences later)
A focused, self-controlled person with
faith, who performs his Vedic duties achieves the
self-realization. One has to go through the path of Karma to
achieve Jnana! One achieves Moksha after in this state.
Important concepts in chapter 4:
