"Unflinching devotion to the Teacher is paramount in the life of a true seeker. To begin with, an external God can be the object of faith. But once the devotee grows to be a seeker, only a Wise Teacher can fulfil his quest.  It is then for the seeker to get purified and enlightened by the words of wisdom from his Guru.  Their bond and attunement put the Teacher on the pedestal of God.  Such an impeccable Guru-sishya bond alone bestows wisdom, strength and fulfillment to the seeker."

<< Chapter 14 Verse 27 >>
< >

ब्रह्मणो हि प्रतिष्ठाहममृतस्याव्ययस्य च ।
शाश्वतस्य च धर्मस्य सुखस्यैकान्तिकस्य च ॥ १४.२७ ॥

brahmaṇo hi pratiṣṭhāham-amṛtasyāvyayasya ca |
śāśvatasya ca dharmasya sukhasyaikāntikasya ca || 14.27 ||

  Audio-BG-14.27
 

Krishna concludes the fourteenth chapter with a brief description of the great, wholesome and causal Self, denoted by the term ‘I’. Even the infinite Brahman rests upon this Self, says Krishna (Brahmaṇo hi pratiṣṭhāham). Immortality, inexhaustibility (amṛtasya avyayasya), eternal dharma (śāśvatasya ca dharmasya) as well as endless happiness (sukhasya ekāntikasya ca) inhere in the same inmost Self (14.27). The focus is now the Self, ātmā.
