| 40. The Blessed
Lord said:O Partha, neither in this world nor in the next is there destruction
for him ; none, verily, who does good My son, ever comes to grief.He who
has failed in Yoga will not be subject to a lower birth than the present
one either here or hereafter. My son: tata is translated into son ). Tata
in Sanskrit means father because the father propagates (Sk. root tan) himself
in the form of his son. Since thus the father himself is the son, the son
also is called tata. Even a disciple, though not a son, is addressed as
son because he is like a son.What, then will happen to himself |
