Bhagavad Gita in sequence of Bible || Are we crypto Christians

God is having form

Colossians 1:15
The Son is the image of the invisible God

अर्जुन उवाच
एवं सततयुक्ता ये भक्तास्त्वां पर्युपासते ।
ये चाप्यक्षरमव्यक्तं तेषां के योगवित्तमा: ॥12.1॥
Arjuna inquired: Which are considered to be more perfect, those who are always properly
engaged in Your devotional service or those who worship the impersonal Brahman, the
unmanifested?

श्रीभगवानुवाच
मय्यावेश्य मनो ये मां नित्ययुक्ता उपासते ।
श्रद्धया परयोपेतास्ते मे युक्ततमा मता: ॥ २ ॥
The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: Those who fix their minds on My personal form and
are always engaged in worshiping Me with great and transcendental faith are considered by Me to
be most perfect.

How the Lord remains invisible?

मत्त: परतरं नान्यत्किञ्चिदस्ति धनञ्जय ।
मयि सर्वमिदं प्रोतं सूत्रे मणिगणा इव ॥7.7॥
O conqueror of wealth, there is no truth superior to Me. Everything rests upon Me, as pearls are
strung on a thread.

रसोऽहमप्सु कौन्तेय प्रभास्मि शशिसूर्ययो: ।

प्रणव: सर्ववेदेषु शब्द: खे पौरुषं नृषु ॥7.8॥
O son of Kuntī, I am the taste of water, the light of the sun and the moon, the syllable oṁ in the
Vedic mantras; I am the sound in ether and ability in man.

पुण्यो गन्ध: पृथिव्यां च तेजश्चास्मि विभावसौ ।

जीवनं सर्वभूतेषु तपश्चास्मि तपस्विषु ॥7.9॥
I am the original fragrance of the earth, and I am the heat in fire. I am the life of all that lives, and
I am the penances of all ascetics.

Prakriti Purusha Viveka Yoga
Nature, the Enjoyer, and Consciousness

सर्वस्य चाहं हृदि सन्निविष्टो

I am seated in everyone’s heart ||15.15||

सर्वभूतस्थितं यो मां भजत्येकत्वमास्थित: ।

सर्वथा वर्तमानोऽपि स योगी मयि वर्तते ॥6.31॥
Such a yogī, who engages in the worshipful service of the Supersoul, knowing that I and the
Supersoul are one, remains always in Me in all circumstances.

समं पश्यन्हि सर्वत्र समवस्थितमीश्वरम् ।

न हिनस्त्यात्मनात्मानं ततो याति परां गतिम् ॥13.29॥
One who sees the Supersoul equally present everywhere, in every living being, does not degrade
himself by his mind. Thus he approaches the transcendental destination.

NATURE OF LUST
Bhagavad Gita:

How lust begins

ध्यायतो विषयान्पुंसः सङ्गस्तेषूपजायते ।

सङ्गात्सञ्जायते कामः कामात्क्रोधोऽभिजायते
While contemplating the objects of the senses, a person develops attachment for them, and from
such attachment lust develops, and from lust anger arises.

अर्जुन उवाच
अथ के न प्रयुक्तोऽयं पापं चरति पूरुषः ।
अनिच्छन्नपि वार्ष्णेय बलादिव नियोजितः ||3.36||
Arjuna said: O descendant of Vṛṣṇi, by what is one impelled to sinful acts, even unwillingly, as if engaged by force?

श्री भगवानुवाच
काम एष क्रोध एष रजोगुणसमुद्भ‍वः ।
महाशनो महापाप्मा विद्ध्येनमिह वैरिणम् ॥3.37॥
The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: It is lust only, Arjuna, which is born of contact with the
material mode of passion and later transformed into wrath, and which is the all-devouring sinful
enemy of this world.

धूमेनाव्रियते वह्निर्यथादर्शो मलेन च ।

यथोल्बेनावृतो गर्भस्तथा तेनेदमावृत्तम् ॥3.38॥
As fire is covered by smoke, as a mirror is covered by dust, or as the embryo is covered by the
womb, the living entity is similarly covered by different degrees of this lust.

आवृतं ज्ञानमेतेन ज्ञानिनो नित्यवैरिणा ।

कामरूपेण कौन्तेय दुष्पूरेणानलेन च ॥3.39॥
Thus the wise living entity’s pure consciousness becomes covered by his eternal enemy in the
form of lust, which is never satisfied and which burns like fire.

इन्द्रियाणि मनो बुद्धिरस्याधिष्ठानमुच्यते ।

एतैर्विमोहयत्येष ज्ञानमावृत्य देहिनम् ॥3.40॥
The senses, the mind and the intelligence are the sitting places of this lust. Through them lust
covers the real knowledge of the living entity and bewilders him.

तस्मात्त्वमिन्द्रियाण्यादौ नियम्य भरतर्षभ ।

पाप्मानं प्रजहि ह्येनं ज्ञानविज्ञाननाशनम् ॥3.41॥
Therefore, O Arjuna, best of the Bhāratas, in the very beginning curb this great symbol of sin
[lust] by regulating the senses, and slay this destroyer of knowledge and self-realization.

इन्द्रियाणि पराण्याहुरिन्द्रियेभ्यः परं मनः ।

मनसस्तु परा बुद्धिर्यो बुद्धेः परतस्तु सः ॥3.42॥
The working senses are superior to dull matter; mind is higher than the senses; intelligence is still
higher than the mind; and he [the soul] is even higher than the intelligence.

एवं बुद्धेः परं बुद्ध्वा संस्तभ्यात्मानमात्मना ।

जहि शत्रुं महाबाहो कामरूपं दुरासदम् ॥3.43॥
Thus knowing oneself to be transcendental to the material senses, mind and intelligence, O
mighty-armed Arjuna, one should steady the mind by deliberate spiritual intelligence [Kṛṣṇa
consciousness] and thus – by spiritual strength – conquer this insatiable enemy known as lust.

Differences between Sanatana Dharma (ISKCON) and Christianity

DEITY WORSHIP
Habakkuk 2:18
“Of what value is an idol carved by a craftsman? Or an image that teaches lies? For the one who makes it trusts in his
own creation; he makes idols that cannot speak.

अनन्याश्चिन्तयन्तो मां ये जना: पर्युपासते ।

तेषां नित्याभियुक्तानां योगक्षेमं वहाम्यहम् ॥9.22॥
But those who always worship Me with exclusive devotion, meditating on My transcendental form – to
them I carry what they lack, and I preserve what they have.

मन्मना भव मद्भ‍क्तो मद्याजी मां नमस्कु रु ।

मामेवैष्यसि सत्यं ते प्रतिजाने प्रियोऽसि मे ॥18.65॥
Always think of Me, become My devotee, worship Me and offer your homage unto Me. Thus you will
come to Me without fail. I promise you this because you are My very dear friend.

एतु प्राणा एतु मन: एतु चक्षुरथो बलम् ।

May life come to this deity; may mind come to this deity; may eyes and strength come to this deity.
(Atharva Veda 5.30.20)

Re-incarnation

1. Matthew 10:28 (ESV): "And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the
soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell."

वासांसि जीर्णानि यथा विहाय

नवानि गृह्णाति नरोऽपराणि ।
तथा शरीराणि विहाय जीर्णा-
न्यन्यानि संयाति नवानि देही ॥2.22॥
As a person puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly accepts new material
bodies, giving up the old and useless ones

जातस्य हि ध्रुवो मृत्युर्ध्रुवं जन्म मृतस्य च ।॥2.27॥

One who has taken his birth is sure to die, and after death one is sure to take birth again.

ते तं भुक्त्वा स्वर्गलोकं विशालं

क्षीणे पुण्ये मर्त्यलोकं विशन्ति ।
एवं त्रयीधर्ममनुप्रपन्ना
गतागतं कामकामा लभन्ते ॥9.21॥
When they have thus enjoyed vast heavenly sense pleasure and the results of their pious
activities are exhausted, they return to this mortal planet again. Thus those who seek sense
enjoyment by adhering to the principles of the three Vedas achieve only repeated birth and
death.
