II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

हें बहु जें जें जल्पिजेल I तेथें कथेसि फांकु होईल I परि तें स्नेहरूपा न यैल I बोलवरी II 173 II
म्हणोनि विसुरा काय येणें I तो ईश्वरु कवळावा कवणें I जो आपुलें मान नेणे I आपणचि II 174 II
तरी मागिला ध्वनीआंतु I मज गमला सावियाचि मोहितु I जे बलात्कारें असे म्हणतु I परिस बापा II 175 II
अर्जुना जेणें जेणें भेदें I तुझें कां चित्त बोधे I तैसें तैसें विनोदें I निरूपिजेल II 176 II
तो काइसया नांव योगु I तयाचा कवण उपेगु I अथवा अधिकारप्रसंगु I कवणा येथ II 177 II
ऐसें जें जें काहीं I उक्त असे इये ठाईं I तें आघवेंचि पाहीं I सांगेन आतां II 178 II
तूं चित्त देऊनि अवधारीं I ऐसें म्हणोनि श्रीहरी I बोलिजेल ते पुढारी I कथा आहे II 179 II
श्रीकृष्ण अर्जुनासी संगु I न सांडोनि सांगेल योगु I तो व्यक्त करूं प्रसंगु I म्हणे निवृत्तिदासु II 180 II

"However we may try to describe it, it is impossible to portray the longing Lord Krishna had with His beloved Arjun. This is because how can one describe the Supreme Lord who is unable to describe Himself? His incessant urging to Arjun in itself reveals how engrossed He was in His beloved Arjun. Lord Krishna urged Arjun to listen attentively. He said, let me illustrate to resolve your confusion. It will be to enlighten you about the many questions that arise from it like what is the yogic path (Yoga Marga), what is it's use, who holds the authority in this for others to follow etc. With this preamble Lord Krishna began His enlightening discourse. Sant Dnyaneshwar says, let me, the obedient disciple of Sant Nivruttidas describe what Lord Krishna advised to Arjun regarding how one should practice Yog without renunciation or without giving up worldly duties."
