The greatness of this grantha as stated by LORD is summarised in the below thread with some main points (5/n)
#GitaJayanti #GreatnessofGita #VarahaPurana
1) Those who are engaged in the practice of reciting the Gita will not be entangled by their actions - meaning they wont have any kama lepa and thereby will avoid few janmas in future (6/n)
#GitaJayanti #GreatnessofGita #VarahaPurana
2) If one finds books on Gita or ongoing lectures about Gita, it can be considered as the home of all great, sacred rivers and pilgrimage centers in this bhooloka. (7/n)
#GitaJayanti #GreatnessofGita #VarahaPurana
3) The same place can be considered as the place where great sages and yogis reside. The Lord is also guranteed to be residing there which LORD gives as a commitment through this samvaada with Bhoodevi
#GitaJayanti #GreatnessofGita #VarahaPurana
4) The greatness of Gita is derived from the fact that they are the words of the LORD himself (as SriKrishna) with full infinite auspiciousness (9/n)
#GitaJayanti #GreatnessofGita #VarahaPurana
5) One who studies and recites the Gita daily willl attain liberation. This is a commitment given by LORD himself in his own words (10/n)

6) One who utters the word Gita at the time of leaving ones body will reach the LORD. (11/n)

7) Even those who have sinned will be rid of their sins if they have read, analyzed and understood the meaning of the Gita. They too shall achieve liberation (12/n)

8) Great emperors such as Janaka reached higher destinations due to their study of the Gita. This should be another example of understanding the importance of Gita and using this as part of saadhana (13/n)
#GitaJayanti #GreatnessofGita #VarahaPurana
One must study the glory of the Gita after completing the study of the Gita for mximum benefit.
Thus ends the importance of Bhagavat Gita as pronounced by LORD to Bhoodevi in Varaaha Purana
