Bhagwan Krishna says in Gita,
यं यं वापि स्मरन्भावं त्यजत्यन्ते कलेवरम् । तं तमेवैति कौन्तेय सदा तद्भावभावित: ॥ ६ ॥
Yaṁ yaṁ vāpi smaran bhāvaṁ tyajatyante kalevaram. Taṁ tam evaiti kaunteya sadā tad-bhāvā-bhāv
- Gita 8.6
When life leaves the body, ‘tyajaty ante kalevaram.’ ‘Kalevar’ means the body. The life leaves this body; we die. Whatever we are thinking about at that time, ‘yaṁ yaṁ vāpi smaran’. ‘Smaran’ means ‘think, remember’, whatever we are thinking about that time, remember that time. That's what we are going to attain, and where we are going to go. And what are we going to think at that time when life is leaving the body? Bhagwan.
Wherever our mind is attached, that personal object we love, where our mind is attached, that's what we are going to remember at that time. If our mind is attached to Bhagwan, then remember Bhagwan. If our mind is attached to material world, any personal object, we remember that and that's what we are going to attain.
And how do we get attached? How we know we fall in love? We get addicted, we get attached. How does it happen when you just see someone and fall in love? ‘Pyaar ho gaya, na na na (no no no)’.
Bhagwan Krishna says in Gita,
ध्यायतो विषयान्पुंस: सङ्गस्तेषूपजायते |
Dhyāyato viṣhayān puṁsaḥ saṅgas teṣhūpajāyate
- Gita 2.62
When we think again and again, bar bar. Listen carefully! When we think again and again that I will get happiness, I will find happiness in the attainment of this personal object, we get attached and we fall in love.
