Who will go to Brahma?

अन्नाद्भवति भूतानि पर्जन्यादन्नसंभवः
यज्ञाद्भवति पर्जन्यो यज्ञ कर्मसमुद्भवः
कर्म ब्रह्मोद्भवम् विद्धि ब्रह्माक्षरसमुद्भवम्
तस्मात्सर्वगतम् ब्रह्म नित्यम् यज्ञे प्रतिष्ठितम्
एवम् प्रवर्तितम् चक्रं नानुवर्तयतीह यः

Annadbhavati bhootaani parjanyaadannasambhavaha
yajnyaadbhavati parjanyo yajnya karma samudbhavaha
karma brahmodbhavam viddhi brahmaaksharasamudbhavam
tasmaatsarvagatam brahma nityam yajnye prtishTitam
evam pravartitam chakram naanuvartayateeha yaha

Shloka Meaning:

Life is created because of food and food is created because of rain and water

Rain comes in with the offerings and homage, while the homage is created by the deeds

Karma is destined by the Brahma and Brahma is created by the one non-extinguishable

That is why everything leads to Brahma with homage as the means to reach

Here, this wheel keeps rotating without replicating the same

The is a great shloka from Bhagavadgita where the Lord Krishna answers Arjuna as to what is required for any being to attain Brahma.

Get up O Rama

कौसल्या सुप्रजा राम पूर्वा संध्या प्रवर्तते
उत्तिष्ठ नरशार्दूल कर्तव्यं दैव मान्हिकम्

kousalyaa suprajaa raama poorvaa saMdhyaa pravartatE
uttiShTha narashaardoola kartavyaM daiva maanhikam


Shloka Meaning:

O good son of kausalya the morning twilight has begun in the east
get up the best amongst men duty respected by Gods need to be done

This is a shloka from the 23rd Sarga of Baalakaanda from Valmiki Maharshi's Ramayana. Sage Vishwaamitra brings both Rama and Lakshmana the forest in order to destroy the evils that were destroying their yagnas and the prayers to Gods. Before crossing the river they rested near the River Bank and the next day early morning when the Sun raised in the east, the great sage woke Rama to do his duty that is respected by Gods.

Where exactly is Bhagavadgeeta mentioned in the Mahabharatha

पर्वोक्तं भगवद्गीता पर्व भीष्म वधस्ततः
द्रोणाभिषेकः पर्वोक्तं संशप्तक वदस्ततः

parvOktam bhagavadgeetaa parva bheeshma vadhastataH
drONaabhishekaH parvOktam samshaptaka vadastataH


Shloka Meaning:

This parva has the Bhagavadgeeta and Bheeshma being laid down
Drona being given the army chief and being killed due to an oath are in that parva

This is Shloka No 56 of Adiparva from Sriman Vyaasa Mahabharata. This is where one will see the word "Bhagavadgeetha" in the entire epic. Even in the Bheeshma parva where the actual Bhagavadgeeta is wonderfully knitted in, it is portrayed more like the greatest mentor and a normal mentee session

What do we Learn from Ramayana

पात्यो गेये च मधुरं प्रमाणैस्त्रिभिरन्वितं

जातभिहि सप्तभिर्युक्तं तंत्रीलयसमन्वितं ॥  

इक्ष्वाकुणामिदं तेषां राज्ञां वंषॆ महात्मनां

महादुत्पन्नमाख्यानं रामायणमिति श्रुतं ॥

तदिदं वर्तैश्यामि सर्व निखिलमदितहः

धर्मकामार्थसहितं श्रोतव्यमनुसूयय ॥

paatyO gEyE ca madhuram pramaaNaistribhiranwitam

jaatabhiH saptabhiryuktam taMtreelayasamanwitam

ikShwaakuNaamidam tEShaaM raaj~jaam vaMShE mahaatmanaam

mahaadutpannamaakhyaanam raamaayaNamiti shrutam

tadidam vartaishyaami sarva nikhilamaditaha

dharmakaamaarthasahitam shrOtavyamanusooyaya

Shloka meaning:

 

influenced by the song which is pleasant and imbibes a proof of three aspects

have grown with delight that is created by that which has embodied the seven strings

out of ikshwaaku clan this is about a king known to be a mighty soul in the dynasty

if one has to assert something very clearly, listen to this great one called Raamayana

it will teach the sense of entire livelihood from the beginning

hence with righteousness and wish listen to it without jealousy

These are the compilation of shlokas from the first few sargas (chapters) of Valmiki marharshi's Ramayana. This summarizes that if anyone has to learn anything about life, they need to study Ramayana, if anyone wants to understand what are the three aspects of life, study Ramayana, if anyone wants to understand the song that can be sung using the seven string instrument, study Ramayana, if anyone wants to understand what is righteousness and what and when to make right wishes, study Ramayana but without jealousy.
