GITA-SHLOKA-4.25 Factual sacrifice means to satisfy the Supreme Lord Krishna, who is also known as Yajna. Such a person (doing factual sacrifice) is the first-class yogi; but he does not lose his individual existence.



TRANSLATION
Some yogis perfectly worship the demigods by offering different sacrifices to them, and some of them offer sacrifices in the fire of the Supreme Brahman.
PURPORT
As described above, a person engaged in discharging duties in Krsna consciousness is also called a perfect yogi or a first-class mystic.

But there are others also, who perform similar sacrifices in the worship of demigods, and still others who sacrifice to the Supreme Brahman, or the impersonal feature of the Supreme Lord.

So there are different kinds of sacrifices in terms of different categories.

Such different categories of sacrifice by different types of performers only superficially demark varieties of sacrifice.

Factual sacrifice means to satisfy the Supreme Lord, Visnu, who is also known as Yajna.

All the different varieties of sacrifice can be placed within two primary divisions: namely, sacrifice of worldly possessions and sacrifice in pursuit of transcendental knowledge.

Those who are in Krsna consciousness sacrifice all material possessions for the satisfaction of the Supreme Lord, while others, who want some temporary material happiness, sacrifice their material possessions to satisfy demigods such as Indra, the sun-god, etc.

And others, who are impersonalists, sacrifice their identity by merging into the existence of impersonal Brahman.

The demigods are powerful living entities appointed by the Supreme Lord for the maintenance and supervision of all material functions like the heating, watering and lighting of the universe.

Those who are interested in material benefits worship the demigods by various sacrifices according to the Vedic rituals.

They are called bahv-isvara-vadi, or believers in many gods.

But others, who worship the impersonal feature of the Absolute Truth and regard the forms of the demigods as temporary, sacrifice their individual selves in the supreme fire and thus end their individual existences by merging into the existence of the Supreme.

Such impersonalists spend their time in philosophical speculation to understand the transcendental nature of the Supreme.

In other words, the fruitive workers sacrifice their material possessions for material enjoyment, whereas the impersonalist sacrifices his material designations with a view to merging into the existence of the Supreme.

For the impersonalist, the fire altar of sacrifice is the Supreme Brahman, and the offering is the self being consumed by the fire of Brahman.

The Krsna conscious person, like Arjuna, however, sacrifices everything for the satisfaction of Krsna, and thus all his material possessions as well as his own self—everything—is sacrificed for Krsna.

Thus, he is the first-class yogi; but he does not lose his individual existence.

Vinod Agarwal Bhajan lyrics गोविंद चले आओ, गोपाल चले आओ

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOiAi42cdlE

गोविंद चले आओ, गोपाल चले आओ


गोविंद चले आओ, गोपाल चले आओ, हे मुरलीधर माधव, नंदलाल चले आओ

हे आनंद घन मोहन रसराज चले आओ,


अखियाँ भर भर आई सांवरिया, भीगी जाए मोरी चुनरिया

प्यारे काली घटा भी झूमके बरसे, मैं कैसे आऊं तेरी नगरिया 


पनघट पे मैं जब भी जाऊँ, राह तकूँ पर चैन  पाऊं,

सखियां मेरी हंसी उड़ाएं, पांव फिसल के छलके गगरिया,


सपनों में भी  आकर तुम, दिल को जलाते हो हरदम,

पू जैसे जल बिन मछली, हाय लेकिन ली ना तुमने खबरिया,

राह तकूँ पर  नहीं पाऊं, सारी दुनिया जाग रही है ,

काली रात है डर भी लागे, छम छम बैरन बोले पायलिया

गोविंद चले आओ, गोपाल चले आओ, हे मुरलीधर माधव, नंदलाल चले आओ, 


तू नहीं मेरा मगर, तुमसे मोहब्बत है, तो है

अगर यह रस्मो रिवाजों से बगावत है, तो है

सच को मैंने सच कहा जब कह दिया तो कह दिया

यह जमाने की नजर में यह हिमाकत है तो है (हिमाकत =Foolishness)

क्यों दुनिया की नजर में प्यार करना किसी मूर्खता से कम नहीं है और जो बुद्धि का इस्तेमाल करें वो प्यार कर भी नहीं सकता



कब कहा मैंने कि वह मिल जाए, मैं उसे

लेकिन दूर ना हो जाए वह इतनी हसरत है तो है

गैर ना हो जाए वह इतनी हसरत है तो है


जल गया परवाना तो शम्मा की इसमें क्या खता

रात भर जलना जलाना उसकी किस्मत है, तो है

यार बनके जालिमों सा वह सताता है मुझे

फिर भी उस जालिम पर मरना अपनी फितरत है, तो है



दूर थे और दूर है हरदम जमीन और आसमान

दूरीयों के बाद भीदोनों में कुरबत है तो है

(वो कौन सा पल है जब ज़मीन और आसमान आमने सामने नहीं होते)

(कुरबत ,i.e., सामीप्य, nearness)



मेरा शौक देख, इंतजार देख, मेरे अरमान देख, कह क्या रहे हैं यह

काश मेरे नसीब में एक और मुलाकात होती, फिर वही बात हो फिर वही रात हो

 जाओ ओ रस पूरीत सावन मेरी प्रीति की जीवन मोरी (base)

सब व्यवधान समेट लो मनहर अब नेक रखो ना दूरी (व्यवधान=problems, नेक =even a little)


हे मेरे चिरंतन धर्म, अंतर स्थित के मर्म, चितहू के नागर चोर (चितहू =heart)

तुम बिन सुना है सब ओर

दिल की हस्ती भी अजीब हस्ती है, यह लूटने वाले को ही तरसती है

इस विरह निशा में मेरे सुधाकर (moon), तुम ज्योति सुधा सरसा

प्राणों की पीड़ा को हर लो हे सुरभित यौवन

(सुरभित यौवन = Fragrant ever Youthful)

आओ मेरे मोहन हीए के फूल, मत जाओ भूल, आओ मम मधुमत मन के भ्रमर

(हीए=heart, मम =mine, मधुमत =honey)

प्रिय तुम बिन सूना है सब ओर

गोविंद चले आओ



प्रीतम को कब लाएगा यह मेरा इंतजारे सनम

राहों में ही बीत रहा यह जीवन हसीन तोहफा सनम

प्यारे आओ तो फिर से हो जाए यह जीवन उमंगों का संगम

क्षण क्षण प्रतीक्षा में बीत रहा कब होगा खतम इंतजारे सनम

मरने से पहले आंखें मेरी चाहें तेरा दीदारे सनम


जाती बार वो कह गए अब हम सिर्फ ख्वाबों में आएंगे

ए सखी जा कर कह दे उन्हें कि वह वादा तो करें, हम जिंदगी भर के लिए सो जाएंगे

तेरी जगह कोई और होता तो कहां उसका मेरे दिल पर कोई जोर होता

अपनी अदा पे तुम्हें बहुत गरूर है, आंखों के तीर सहना भी हमको मंजूर है

लेकिन एक बात तुमसे कहनी जरूर है कि इश्क में तुमसे मिलना रस्में फितूर है”


गोविंद चले आओ गोपाल चले आओ, हे मुरलीधर माधव, नंदलाल चले आओ
