bhaktyÄ mÄm abhijÄnÄti yÄvÄn yaÅh chÄsmi tattvataįø„
tato mÄį¹ tattvato jƱÄtvÄ viÅhate tad-anantaram
Ch18, V57
Let thy faith in Me be strong
Take Me thou for thy shelter
And ever thee act as My agent
chetasÄ sarva-karmÄį¹i mayi sannyasya mat-paraįø„
buddhi-yogam upÄÅhritya mach-chittaįø„ satataį¹ bhava
Now, over to,
V61
Ä«Åhvaraįø„ sarva-bhÅ«tÄnÄį¹ hį¹id-deÅhe ārjuna tiį¹£hį¹hati
bhrÄmayan sarva-bhÅ«tÄni yantrÄrÅ«įøhÄni mÄyayÄ
The Supreme Lord dwells in the hearts of all living beings, O Arjun. According to their karmas, he directs the wanderings of the souls, who are seated on a machine made of the material energy.
which is contrary to
Ch5, V14
Itās his nature, but not Spirit
Makes man act by wants induced.
na kartį¹itvaį¹ na karmÄį¹i lokasya sį¹ijati prabhuįø„
na karma-phala-saį¹
yogaį¹ svabhÄvas tu pravartate.
Thus, clearly this v61 too is an interpolation as it contravenes the neutrality of the Supreme Spirit in the affairs of man affirmed throughout the text.
Finally, after deliberating upon this proposition, if one comes to the conclusion that the Gita is a work of VyÄsÄās genius rather than Lord Krishna revelation, for after all it is the quintessence of the Upanishads, Brahma Sutras, and the Yoga Sastra ā all works of man- then, its concluding verse meant to impart divinity to it is an interpolation.
Ch18, V78
Wherever yogic Lord Krishna
Joins hands with great PÄrtha
Goddess Victory, spreads carpet
Heaven on earth to set there ever
tach cha sansmį¹itya saį¹smį¹itya rÅ«pam aty-adbhutaį¹ hareįø„
vismayo ye mahÄn rÄjan hį¹iį¹£hyÄmi cha punaįø„ punaįø„
May this āinvocationā paraphrase Krishnaās advice to Arjuna,
Ch18, V63
That thee heard of this wisdom
For task on hand now apply mind
iti te jƱÄnam ÄkhyÄtaį¹ guhyÄd guhyataraį¹ mayÄ
vimį¹iÅhyaitad aÅheį¹£heį¹a yathechchhasi tathÄ kuru,
for it to end,
Having perused all of this
Apply mind to grasp it well
To take a call on what is right

Dedicated to the slighted castes, whose forebear, Krishna, bestowed the invaluable Gita upon the mankind that in due course was fouled by the vested priestly interests.
