Na Enam Chhindanti Shastrani Na Enam Dahati Pawakaha

Na Enam Chhindanti Shastrani Na Enam Dahati Pawakaha Na Cha Enam Kledayanti Aapah Na Shoshayati Marutaha   Sounds familiar, right? Have you ever wondered about its meaning? The literal translation of this  Shloka  will be “A soul can not be killed by weapons, nor can it be burned with a flame. It can not be drenched with water nor can it be dried with air”. Let us see the story behind this. When Arjuna decided not to fight, Lord Krishna, who was his  Sarathi  (Charioteer) in the war, guided him. He gave him many examples and wise words to make him walk on the path he hesitated to take. One such advice was nothing can kill the soul.

Now, try imagining, you can not feel the touch. Can you do that? Impossible, right? This is because we can’t be without this sense. Right now, you are sitting or standing. And thus, you are touching a floor or chain in one way or another. The books you read, the pen used for writing, the remote control you use to handle, and so on. Although we touch things, we tend to ignore this sense.
