Opening Scenerio of

Bhagavadgita in Chapter

-1 is a dramatic conflict

of Arjuna

ARJUNA’S PREDICAMENT

Sense of duty Vs

affection & respect for

Bhisma and Drona

Duty Vs Ethics

Killing was involved

Blood stream to be the result

Both these were no problem for him

As he had waged wars & won all of them

A few days ago – Gograhaïa

war

He had won over all of them

single handed

He was not afraid

THE BACK DROP

He was born with a Silver spoon in his mouth –

Scheming of Duryodhana denied him and the Pandavas the enjoyment

Every thorn he removed from his foot as they moved in the forest with their beloved mother reminded him of the big thorn Duryodhana

The camphor palace

The playing of Dice

Attempt to make Draupadi naked !

Un pardonable act of Duryodhana

Powered by the plots of Ùakuni !

His promise to Yudhiúûhira

Confidence on his own

valour

The divine & most

powerful astras

He was all set to finish the enemies

His unspoken promise to Draupadi

That she will be back to her normalcy

He was educated with values

Unlike the modern education

All to be done according to the values

What is then the root cause for his

predicament ?

Why should he be shattered ?

Why should his body tremble?

Why should his Ganãèva slip down?

Why should his mind become confused?

That is the dramatic back drop of Gita

CONFLICT PRESENTATION

There was no problem until he came to the battle field

He wanted to know as to who all he had to kill Køúïa drives him to the battle front

He sees Døoïa, Bhèsma & Køpa – the acáryás!

That triggers his conflict

He had also seen them in the Gograhaïa battle -

What is special about it now?

Earlier Bhèúma, Droïa & Køpa

did not know that they are

going for a battle with

pandavas

Though they had some inkling

of it!

Now they have clearly sided Duryodhana

The wisdom of Bhiúma was supreme

Arjuna considered him as the wisest

He knew that he was the most beloved disciple, pet student of Droïa

He also has joined the camp of Duryodhana

Køpa, he knew was kula-guru with clear vision of Dharma, values and knew what is right & what is wrong.

They all cannot be wrong

He therefore concluded

He should be wrong!

His intellectual arguments supported him

What is the objective of this war?

Getting kingdom, for wealth!

All selfishness – killing our won people!

ARGUMENT – 1

• Even if we get the kingdom,

• How can we reap the fruits without their most loved and respected ones,

• Without Bhèúma, Droïa, Køpa!

ARGUMENT – 2

• After all wars create bloodshed

• Innocent people are killed for no fault of them

• The society bereft of men, women will have problem -

• Varïa Sankara is obvious!

• A social disaster – we are creating !

ARGUMENT – 3

Are not love, compassion, affection higher values?

Dharma is featured by oeve, o³ee & oceWhat are we doing !

Away from path of Dharma

ARGUMENT – 4

Confusion at mental level

Nervous tremors

Collapsing down unable to stand at body level

RESULT

Brought up in a good family with teachings of yoga & spiritual lore

He knew that there was an answer

He knew Køúïa was a teacher of great wisdom

He seeks the solution taking him as his guru

SOLUTION

THE MESSAGE FOR ALL OF US

Conflicts arise in everyone’s life

It is mandatory to understand the higher secrets of life

Guru’s role comes here

Openness of mind if not total surrender is a must for student

ARJUNA’S LOT IS EVERYONE’S LOT

Many other conflicts also can torture us

Teachings of Gita give us the total wisdom

Teaching – 1

Total knowledge base of our existence

Brahman - Eternal, All pervasive, Beyond words

The layers of our pure consciousness/ existence

Ever changing body

CHAPTER -2 - A SUMMARY OF GITA

What is the relation between the two?

As all

Ornaments are made of Gold

Pots are of Clay

Waves are of H2O

Matter of Energy

Body is made of Brahman

It is only changing of clothes

Is the cycle which all of us go through

Killing is no annihilation not a total destruction

Birth

Life

Death

In our body we are killing

millions of external germs,

Do we grieve for it?

We find it a necessity!

We find a billion cells in our

body destroyed everyday! Do

we grieve for it?

We don’t know the facts!

Creation - sustenance and destruction

Is the law of the COSMOS

Do we know this?

Hence you have no case for

getting melancholy - stuck

for killing the enemies in

front of you!THIS IS THE TOTAL KNOWLEDGE BASE

From this total knowledge

base non can destroy you

and you cannot destroy

others and NONE CAN

DESTROY ANY ONE

WE ALL ARE ETERNAL

TEACHING – 2 DHARMA VIEW POINT

You have no point to shiver even if you look from the point of

Dharma

The dharma for a warrior is to fight and win

The makers of Dharma knew that wars cause bloodshed,

Varna Sankara, etc,

Why did they prescribe wars?

Why immune system is the body wars incessantly?

To keep the body healthy !

To keep the society free from

terrorism

A strong defense is necessary

- war is a must

Do we not punish a murder?

A terrorist?

Do we leave him in the name of

Affection?

Compassion?

Love?

Not only the terrorist but his entire group needs

punishment!

A Bin Laden is not just punished!

Similarly the whole gang of Duryodhana, his supporters whoever have come need

to be won over.

What about the wisdom of Bhiúma, Droïa, & Køpa?

They adhere to their Dharma.

They are indebted to their king.

They have no choice.

At best they can suggest.

The Bush, Supreme

Advisers can advice

As president of US he had the say

To destroy Saddam Hussein

Soldiers, army chiefs all do their duty –

If you win – you enjoy the

fruits of Kingship, wealth, etc.

If you loose and die – you get

JeerjmJeie&

You enjoy in heavens! it is a

Compassion, Love, Affection featured by l³eeie & mesJee Renunciation and service

But we have to go beyond the Guïas and the Dualities

Move from melJe to

efvel³emelJe, eternal good

For that you need to convert all Karma to Karma Yoga

Duty is the basis

Duty is detached action

Hence is higher than Satvic actions in the value system.

Doing duty sincerely without attachment to our own name, fame, money (ego)

Love, compassion, affection (Emotion)

Good & bad, misery or happiness (Intellect)

Body its survival or death (body)

Is the key to become efvel³emelJemLe

Is the higher Dharma

“It is good to be born in a church

but not to die in it”
