Part 2: Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7
When we realize our Self, we realize that we are Divine and nothing less. Anything we think about ourselves which is lower than this, is low self-esteem, is self-doubt. What Kṛṣṇa says is true for all of us. We are above the energies that constitute us.
We too are the energy that constitutes our body-mind system. All that we lack is the awareness of this Truth.
Our natural state is to know ourselves. Once we realize the Truth that we are God, there is no difference between Kṛṣṇa and us. We are enlightened. That is what Kṛṣṇa came to prove. He has no need to prove that He is God. He doesn't care if we know it or not. His mission was to enlighten Arjuna, and through Arjuna, the rest of humanity. His mission is to prove to us that we too are God
