Sw. Chinmayananda has very beautifully explained
the meaning of the common usage ‘Yoga-Kshema’ in our scriptures. In today’s world, all our energies are
dissipated in two main directions – Procuring (Yoga, योग) and maintaining (Kshemam, क्षेमम). We
seem to spend all our effort, energy and time on procuring material pleasures
or benefits and worrying about maintaining them our entire life. Because of this, we do not seem to have the time to engage in spiritual or welfare work
(seva).
However, Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita in
Ch, 9 emphatically says that for those
true seekers who are dedicated in spiritual pursuits and attaining the Self
(HIM), HE (Lord) will take care of the ‘Yoga-Kshema’
work of HIS devotees.
ananyaschintayanta mam ye janah paryupasate
tesham nityabhiyuktanam yogakshemam vahamyaham
Hari Om.
