My Personal Gita

Dr. S. Sankaranarayan

O son of Prtha, even those who are of sinful birth, women, men of working class, and the members of the fourth caste—even they, having taken refuge in Me, attain the highest goal.

Shri Purohit Swami

For even the children of sinful parents, and those miscalled the weaker sex, and merchants, and labourers, if only they will make Me their refuge, they shall attain the Highest.

Swami Adidevananda

By taking refuge in Me even men of evil birth, women, Vaisyas and also Sudras attain the supreme state.

Swami Gambirananda

For, O son of Prtha, even those who are born of sin-women, Vaisyas, as also Sudras [S.'s construction of this portion is: women, Vaisyas as also Sudras, and even others who are born of sin (i.e., those who are born low and are of vile deeds, viz Mlecchas, Pukkasas and others). M.S. also takes papa-yonayah (born of sin) as a separate phrase, and classifies women and others only as those debarred from Vedic study, etc.-Tr.]-, even they reach the highest Goal by taking shelter under Me.

Swami Sivananda

For, taking refuge in Me, they also, who, O Arjuna, may be of sinful birth–women, Vaisyas as well as Sudras–attain the Supreme Goal!

My Personal Gita

Dr. S. Sankaranarayan

Certainly, it should be so in the case of the pious men of the priestly class and devoted royal seers. Having come to this transient and joyless world, you should be devoted to Me.

Shri Purohit Swami

What need then to mention the holy Ministers of God, the devotees and the saintly rulers? Do thou, therefore, born in this changing and miserable world, do thou too worship Me.

Swami Adidevananda

How much more then the Brahmanas and royal sages who are pure and are My devotees! Having obtained this transient, joyless world, worship Me.

Swami Gambirananda

What to speak of the holy Brahmanas as also of devout kind-sages! Having come to this ephemeral and miserable world, do you worship Me.

Swami Sivananda

How much more easily then the holy Brahmins and devoted royal saints (attain the goal); having obtained this impermanent and unhappy world, do thou worship Me.
