Ancient Scriptures for Modern Attitudes
-Scriptures are based on philosophical thought that has remained constant through time - though we know the interpretation of scriptures has changed depending on prevailing perception
-Scriptures are a representation of the Truth - hence they were applicable, are applicable and will be applicable
-Faith is essential in learning from scriptures - we should persevere and not let confusion hinder our striving
-Confusion can be a indication of progress - confusion may be that first step away from ignorance and towards knowledge
-We should take the time to understand our scriptures - if we do we will begin to understand how relevant their message is to our present life i.e how Prince Arjuna is really you and i
-We should allow ourselves to understand multiple perspectives - by reinventing our perception we encourage self growth
-Living in the present alone can give true happiness - we should practice being proactive and do our best at all times without worrying about the results
-With right thinking formidable tasks can be made less formidable i.e. by reading 2 shlokas per day we can read the entire Srimad Bhagavad Gita in a year - the same is true for all challenges i.e. losing weight, waking up earlier, cleaning your room, etc.
