Review of “Arjuna’s Despair”

Acknowledgements These notes are based on Purna Vidhya, Vedic Heritage Teaching Programme. This material covers pages of “Introduction to the Bhagavad Gita” Part 12, written by: Swamini Pramananda Saraswati and Sri Dhira Chatanya. Slides prepared by: V. “Juggy” Jagannathan.

Current Context and World Affairs and Relevance of Gita Do not yield to unmanliness”, exhorts Krishna, “O Partha. It does not befit you. Give up this lowly weakness of heart and get up, Arjuna” Klaibhyam maa sma gamah Paartha naitattvayyupapadhyate Ksudhram hrdayadaurbhalyam tyaktvottishtha paranthapa Bhagvad Gita Nonviolence is not a cover for cowardice, but it is the supreme virtue of the brave. Exercise of nonviolence requires far greater bravery than that of swordsmanship. Cowardice is wholly inconsistent with nonviolence. Mahatma Gandhi

Egypt Wael Ghonim, Google marketing executive for the Middle East and North Africa, who was detained and blindfolded for 12 days amidst the chaotic events in Egypt, credits the internet, and social networking websites in particular, for liberating the Egyptian government.Google People power, non-violent movement makes history!

In this manner having spoken to Lord Krishna Arjuna scorcher of foes

I shall not fight thus saying to Lord Govinda (Krishna) indeed became silent

Verse 9 Discussion Gudaakesha (conqueror of sleep, given in childhood itself, after he started practising archery skills in the dead of night) [Source: ] This shows that Arjuna was always fully aware of himself and his prowess and not given to negligence any time. Sanjaya said this perhaps to remind to Dhrathrashtra of the glory of Arjuna. Paranthapa – scorcher of foes; One who strikes fear in the hearts of his enemies Hrishikesa – HE is the master of all emotions and feelings Sreyas – relative & absolute Topical problem transforming into a fundamental problem

To him, said Krishna as though laughing (smiling), Bharata (Arjuna)

in the middle of both armies one who is sad he said this

Verse 10 Discussion Why was Krishna smiling? The reason for this was, 1. This was what exactly the Lord intended to happen, 2. It was the smile of the father to his child who talks as an adult to impress him. 3.It is a derisive smile of the wise to an ignorant who talks like the wise. Source: What is the cause of Arjuna’s sorrow? How does Lord Krsna first respond to Arjuna’s conflict?
