The Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 1, Verse 1
[Gita Post #4] Using the word dharma at the very beginning, poet Vyāsa declares that the subject of the Bhagavad Gita is Brahman.
Dharma
The individuated self is amost always performing the relativistic dharma. The inner urge of a human being to transcend the limitations of the body is the influence of absolute dharma.
Śraddhā
Reading and absorbing teachings of śruti is as beneficial as directly hearing the words of a guru, for they are nothing but the recorded teachings of the ṛshis. Reading them with śraddhā is as good as śravana (listening to a guru).
