Bhagavad Gita Kavacham

Gita: "I have been unable to find the Kavacham online. The one I use is from the edition by ANNIE BESANT and BHAGAVAN DAS: The Bhagavad Gita, Samskrit text, free translation into English, a word-for-word translation, an introduction to Samskrit grammer and a complete word index.

Kavacham means armour but there are Mantra- Kavachams which are incantations used for various purposes. They must surely be protective as the meaning suggests.
The Gita Kavacham takes specific lines from the body of the
Gita and combines them with certain arrangements of the hands. It would be interesting some day to study the neurophysiology of this."

The
Gita Kavacham says:

Thou grievest for those who should not be grieved for yet speakest words of wisdom
Surya renders it as:
Don't worry about things...

You don't know who you are, so why worry?

No difference between old and young.

An eight year old has knee pain.

This is but one of the many bodies in which your "I" sits, like a bird

Biggest
Siddhi = our body (Ramana)
