 Most of us are familiar with the two famous stanzas from the Geeta...it roughly translates as "whenever there is decline in dharma and an increase in adharma I manifest myself ...and for the protection of the virtuous and for the annihilation of the evil doers I incarnate from age to age"

Now let's give a technical twist to this stanza in terms of equilibrium in nature.

I saw a question posed by another person on line elsewhere where he was asking members to translate this stanza as to fit in for his idea of mismanagement of man and resources of nature, everyone had their go in translating it and I myself gave my translation and I am reproducing what I had posted online there.


Here goes:

Whenever there is shift in the plates of law of being and the consequent chaos that spikes, to reinstate equilibrium,nature auto-corrects the causative factors for general well being once again( in other words ..restoring to factory setting from time to time)
