THE RAM GITA - THE CREST JEWEL OF VEDANTA
Sage Vasistha, pleased with Ram’s persistent quest for liberation, revealed to him the four gateways to the realm of Moksha – Self Control, Spirit of Enquiry, Contentment and Good Company (Satsanga). He revealed that realizing the Supreme Being by treading through these gateways, with a pure heart, will break the vicious chain of birth and death. He, who remains unbound by samsara has nothing to acquire and nothing to reject. Such a person remains unaffected by past tendencies as well.
Those who disregard scriptures and the holy men will be bereft of self-knowledge and will reach a state that is more harmful than all illnesses in this world.
Self-Control
Being averse to the Atma and getting pulled into the material world, causes immense suffering and ultimately causes destruction. When the mind is completely rested in the Eternal being, abstained from worldly bonds, it is said to have Self-control, which softens the pain caused by life. Tending towards infinity is possible only by conquering the mind and by cultivating wisdom.
