As the story in the Bhagavad Gita comes
to a close, Krishna explains to Arjuna how he (and all spiritual seekers) can
benefit from the wisdom contained in their dialog. Anyone who can set aside
their pre-conceived biases and skepticism about these teachings and applies the
principles with dedicated effort will free themselves from bad habits and wrong
inclinations. That person will work through their bad karma from past actions
and begin building a storehouse of good karma that will take them to a virtuous
place. The very act of studying and learning this valuable knowledge is
equivalent to worshiping God. Once learned, the most priceless service you can
offer to God is to teach this kind of wisdom to others. But you should be
careful not to try to convince anyone of its value, especially if they do not
believe in God or are not inclined to want to serve others. You should refrain
from trying to teach others about this if they appear to be someone who lacks
self-control or even if they just don’t want to hear about it.
