Meaning of the #Shlok

Feeling surprised on seeing his extremely disillusioned mind, Krishna is telling Arjuna, who is repeatedly citing the scriptures and expressing his concern over heaven-hell, that all these talks are filled with worldly-attachment. And because right now you are trapped in the attachments of the outcome of the war, you are getting attracted towards such thoughts! But whenever your understanding transcends above such attachments of life, at that time on your own, you will separate yourself from these possessions and promises related to earth-heaven which you have heard or happen to hear. Because then you will know that heaven and hell are merely a state of mind. If a human being is trapped in attachments then at that very point in time he is enduring hell; and if he is living with a mind free from attachments, then in this life itself he is surely experiencing the pleasures of heaven. And when you will understand this truth, then you will not worry at all about the after-death imaginary heaven-hell.
– Deep Trivedi
