The second chapter is called Sankhya yoga but actually

it deals entirely with Vedanta. The eternal nature of

the atman and the ephemeral mature of the body is

revealed to Arjuna. "The atman is eternal, immortal,

never born and therefor can never die. It is pure

consciousness and pure existence. That which is

existent can never cease to exist. This is one of the

laws of physics - energy can never be destroyed. it

can only change its form. One body falls and the

jivatman flits to another body through which it can

best fulfill its destiny. Visit: www.vanamaliashram.org
