The journey of life always starts from childhood. It was not so that after death we are again born from the same level. If souls’ atmans could purify themselves, the need for manifesting a form would not have existed. To work out its karma, every soul atman needs a body.
As everything contained in Bhagavad Gita was symbolic, metaphorical… Lord Krishna denotes presence of soul atman within human body. Of its own it could do nothing, remained inert all the time. A soul atman could act only through a body, prime reason why it needs an Arjuna to exercise its right. Lord Krishna always acts as sarthi (charioteer) guiding the chariot (human body) of Arjuna.
In absence of soul atman within, no human being could cross ocean of Samsara (worldly life) to reach God in present life.
Whatever our stage in present human manifest life, taking support of Lord Krishna within we could easily reach stage of enlightenment and finally moksha salvation. But how many people world over took help of Lord Krishna within? Mesmerized by glare of worldly riches, controlled by a bloated ego most human beings world over indulged in trivialities of life never bothering about Lord Krishna within!
Promptings of Lord Krishna continued all the time. When we were dominated by a bloated ego, we failed to hear the sweet small promptings of soul atman coming from within. From our very childhood Lord Krishna within was prompting us to undertake spiritual journey but we never cared. It is only by traveling spiritual path we finally established absolute control over five senses and mind. Taking control of five senses and mind means killing ego in its roots. The negative forces that sometimes dominated could be extinguished only with help of Lord Krishna within.
I started in search of God when child six years of age. Being an early starter I could easily establish control over five senses and mind within this life. 37 years of age I finally reached God, realized God.
