    Chapter 15, Verse 7


    ममैवांशो जीवलोके जीवभूत: सनातन: |

    मन:षष्ठानीन्द्रियाणि प्रकृतिस्थानि कर्षति || 7||


    mamaivānśho jīva-loke jīva-bhūtaḥ sanātanaḥ

    manaḥ-ṣhaṣhṭhānīndriyāṇi prakṛiti-sthāni karṣhati


    The embodied souls in this material world are My eternal fragmental parts. But bound by material nature, they are struggling with the six senses including the mind.

    ____________

    Chapter 15, Verse 8


    शरीरं यदवाप्नोति यच्चाप्युत्क्रामतीश्वर: |

    गृहीत्वैतानि संयाति वायुर्गन्धानिवाशयात् || 8||


    śharīraṁ yad avāpnoti yach chāpy utkrāmatīśhvaraḥ

    gṛihītvaitāni sanyāti vāyur gandhān ivāśhayāt


    As the air carries fragrance from place to place, so does the embodied soul carry the mind and senses with it, when it leaves an old body and enters a new one.

    ____________

    Chapter 15, Verse 9


    श्रोत्रं चक्षु: स्पर्शनं च रसनं घ्राणमेव च |

    śhrotraṁ chakṣhuḥ sparśhanaṁ cha rasanaṁ ghrāṇam eva cha

    adhiṣhṭhāya manaśh chāyaṁ viṣhayān upasevate


    Using the sense perceptions of the ears, eyes, skin, tongue, and nose, which are grouped around the mind, the embodied soul savors the objects of the senses.

  • The Happiness Guarantee: Insights from Vedanta | Dr. Janki Santoke

    The Happiness Guarantee: Insights from Vedanta | Dr. Janki Santoke
    May 4 2026
    Dr. Janki Santoke explores the Vedantic understanding of happiness, explaining that lasting joy cannot be found in external objects, achievements, relationships, or even spiritual institutions, but must be discovered and cultivated within oneself. She defines happiness as the cessation of mental agitation, traces agitation to desire, and shows how Vedanta offers a practical path through karma yoga, bhakti yoga, and jnana yoga to purify the mind, sharpen the intellect, reduce desires, and move toward true peace, self-mastery, and ultimately Self-realization.Dr. Janki Santoke (PhD, Philosophy) is a senior disciple of world-renowned guru, Swami A. Parthasarathy. She has spent more than three decades disseminating the knowledge of Vedanta to the general public, helping enhance the quality of their lives. She facilitates this through online weekly sessions, public talks, workshops, seminars, retreats and written articles.
