mach-chittaḥ sarva-durgāṇi mat-prasādāt tariṣhyasi
atha chet tvam ahankārān na śhroṣhyasi vinaṅkṣhyasi

mat-chittaḥ—by always remembering me; sarva—all; durgāṇi—obstacles; mat-prasādāt—by my grace; tariṣhyasi—you shall overcome; atha—but; chet—if; tvam—you; ahankārāt—due to pride; na śhroṣhyasi—do not listen; vinaṅkṣhyasi—you will perish

mach-chittah sarva-durgani mat-prasadat tarishyasi
atha chet tvam ahankaran na shroshyasi vinankshyasi

Translation

BG 18.58: If you always remember Me, by My grace you shall overcome all obstacles and difficulties. But if, due to pride, you do not listen to My advice, you will perish.

Commentary

Having advised Arjun what to do in the previous verse, Shree Krishna now declares the benefits of following his advice and the repercussions of not following it. The soul should not think that it is in any way independent of God. If we take full shelter of the Lord, with the mind fixed upon him, then by his grace all obstacles and difficulties will be resolved. But if, out of vanity, we disregard the instructions, thinking we know better than the eternal wisdom of God and the scriptures, we will fail to attain the goal of human life, for there is no one superior to God, nor is there any advice better than his.
