Some look upon this Self as a wonder, another describes it as wonderful, and others hear of it as a wonder. Even after hearing about it very few people know what the Self is.


आश्चर्यवत्पश्यति कश्चिदेन-
     माश्चर्यवद्वदति तथैव चान्यः ।
आश्चर्यवच्चैनमन्यः शृणोति
     श्रुत्वाप्येनं वेद न चैव कश्चित् ॥२- २९॥

O Arjuna, the Self that dwells in the body of all beings is eternally indestructible. Therefore, you should not mourn for anybody. (2.30)

देही नित्यमवध्योऽयं देहे सर्वस्य भारत ।
तस्मात्सर्वाणि भूतानि न त्वं शोचितुमर्हसि ॥२- ३०॥
