Chapter 1Disappointment of ArjunaShloka 42-47

Shrimadbhagavat Geeta

Shloka 43

0 Krishna, maintainer of the people, I have heard by disciplic succession that those who destroy family traditions dwell always in hell.

Shloka 4

Alas, how strange it is that we are preparing to commit greatly sinful acts knowingly, driven by the desire to enjoy royal happiness.

I would consider it better for the sons of Dhritarashtra to kill me unarmed and unresisting, rather than fight with them.

Sanjaya said: Arjuna, having thus spoken on the battlefield, cast aside his bow. and arrows and sat down on the chariot, his mind overwhelmed with grief.

Shloka 47

What was on Arjuna's mind

This part involves the questions burning up inside Arjuna's head before the battle of mahabharat.Shloka 35-41

0 maintainer of all creatures, I am not prepared to fight with them even in exchange for the three worlds, let alone this earth

Shloka 35

hey janardan(krishna) why we will be happy to kill these son of dhratrashtra? Sin will overcome us if we slay such aggressors.

Shloka 36

Therefore it is not proper for us to kill the sons of Dhritarashtra and our friends. What should we gain, 0 Krishna, husband of the goddess of fortune, and how could we be happy by killing our own kinsmen?

Shloka 37

0 Janardana, although these men, overtaken by greed, see no fault in killing one's family or quarreling with friends,

Shloka 38

why should we, with knowledge of the sin, engage in these acts?

Shloka 39

With the destruction of dynasty, the eternal family tradition is vanquished, and thus the rest of the family becomes involved in irreligious practice.

Shloka 40

Bhagvadgeeta

Arjuna became overwhelmed with compassion and spoke dear Krishna, seeing my friends and relatives present before me in such a fighting spirit,

Shloka 28

I feel the limbs of my body quivering and my mouth drying up. My whole body is trembling, and my hair is standing on end.

Shloka 29

My bow Gandiva is slipping from my hand, and my skin is burning.I am now unable to stand here any longer. I am forgetting myself, and my mind is reeling.

Shloka 30

I foresee only evil, 0 killer of the KeSi demon.I do not see how any good can come from killing my own kinsmen in this battle.

Shloka 31

nor can I, Krishna, desire any subsequent victory, kingdom, or happiness. 0 Govinda, of what avail to us are kingdoms, happiness or even life itself.

Shloka 32

when all those for whom we may desire all these(victory, kingdom,or happiness) are now arrayed with leaving the hope for life and wealth in this battlefield ?

Shloka 33

0 Madhusudana, when teachers, fathers, sons, grandfathers, maternal uncles, fathers-in-law, grandsons, brothers-in-law, and all relatives are ready to give up their lives

Shloka 34

and properties and are standing before me, then why should I wish to kill them, though I may survive?0 maintainer of all creatures, I am not prepared to fight with them even in exchange for the three worlds, let alone this earth.

Arjuna felt everything in the war of mahabharata which any human from kalyuga feels on daily basis. 

The ‘Srimad Bhagwal’ itself is believed to be the gem among all the sacred Puranas as it emphasises on the devotion to Lord. Vishnu’s incarnation, Lord Krishna. It is believed to have been authored by the great sage Vedavyasa when he felt a great unrest troubling his soul after authoring the Mahabharat. Although this Purana itself is believed to be a part of Skanda Purana, it is its lyrical beauty and devotion to Krishna that made it most popular. It enlists 22 incarnations of Lord Vishnu, while other sacred accounts of the Sanatana Dharma believe that there were nine incarnations and one is yet to come. Normally in the Purana, the tales or stories frequently overlap with each other giving emphasis on a different point. Owing to paucity of space, many of the stories have been given a brief mention in this work with the footnote guiding to the sources, to get the full story in the other Puranas. There are also certain variations in the details of the stories which have been also marked within parenthesis. Also, many details mentioned in this Puran which may appear uninteresting, have been deliberately left out. Some of the stories which are well- known have been skipped. For example, the Ramakatha or the details about other incarnations popularised by other sacred sources. The main emphasis in culling out the stories has been on those stories that reveal the basic moral fiber of our ethos. These stories have been recreated keeping in mind the comprehension of our young learners and hence making these stories more logical. This work is only an attempt to make our society recapture its roots. That is why the language and style have been used with great care so as to make the stories readable and comprehensive. It is hoped that our discerning readership will accord it a warm welcome. Lastly, the author wishes to record his gratitude to Narenderji of Diamond Pocket Books whose crusade to publish the gems of our cultural and religious ethos has few parallels in the field of publishing.

Why one more translation of the Gita? This book is a faithful translation of the Gita in simple English. The reader will find that frequent use of comma has made this translation easier to follow. This translator has retained many of the traditional Sanskrit words, like dharma, even in English translation. This is because such words are difficult to translate: the translation in such cases is far from accurate, and, in fact, can even be misleading. To overcome this problem, this translator has given separate explanatory notes for such words, instead of merely giving their “common” translation.The other problem arises from the fact that in Sanskrit, a single word like ‘brahman’ can have several different meanings. Here again, this translation of the Gita faithfully gives different traditional translations and meanings in their proper context and perspective. Lastly, both the Sanskrit text and its Roman transliteration have been presented after separating almost every word by removing all euphonic junctions of final and initial letters (sandhi), also called the phonetic combinations of words. This has increased readability of the text tremendously. Thus, this book takes care of the common as well as special problems that a reader encounters during his study of the Gita. In addition, much useful relevant information given in several helpful indexes and the appendices in this compilation will make reading the Gita easier and more interesting. After all, the Gita is meant to be studied by all.In this book, the original text of the Gita has been reproduced in Sanskrit. For the benefit of the readers who do not read the devanagari (Sanskrit) script, the entire Gita has also been reproduced in Roman transliteration scheme.

SHRIMAD-BHAGAVAD-GITA

Disappointment of Arjun Chapter 1Shloka 12 - 19 description of blowing of conch shells by both the armies

Shrimad Bhagwat Geeta

Then Bhishma, the great valiant grandsire of the Kuru dynasty,, the grandfather of the fighters, blew his conchshell very loudly like the sound of a lion, giving Duryodhana joy.

Shloka 12

After that, the conchshells, bugles, trumpets, drums and horns were all suddenly sounded, and the combined sound was tumultuous.

Shloka 13

On the other side, both Lord Krishna and Arjuna, stationed on a great chariot drawn by white horses, sounded their transcendental conchshells.

Shloka 14

Then, Lord Krisha blew His conchshell, called Panchajanya; Arjuna blew his, the Devadatta; and Bhima, the voracious eater and performer of Herculean tasks, blew his terrific conchshell called Paundra.

Shloka 15

Meaning-King Yudhishthir, the son of Kunti, blew his conchshell, the Anantavijaya, and Nakula and Sahadeva blew the Sughosh and Manipushpak.

Shloka 16

Manipushpak.That great archer the King of Kasi, the great fighter Sikhandi, Dhrashtadyumna, Virata and the unconquerable Satyaki

Shloka 17

Drupada, the sons of Draupad, and the others, O King, such as the son of Subhadra, greatly armed, all blew their respective conchshells.

Shloka 18

The blowing of these different conchshells became uproarious, and thus, vibrating both in the sky and on the earth, it shattered the hearts of the sons of Dhrtarashtra.

Shloka 19

The answers to all the problems one faces in his entire lifetime can be found in the holy Bhagvadgeeta

Disappointment of ArjunaChapter 1

Devoid of eyes which can discriminate between right and wrong, hence blind.Dhrutarashtra asks: O Sanjay! What are my sons and Pandavas, who are eager to fight, doing in the holy battle field of Kursukshethra?

Shloka 1

Sanjay says: After seeing the orderly arranged army of Pandavas, Duryodhana approached his Guru Drona and said.

O Acharya! See this great army of the sons of Pandu, properly arranged by the son of Drupada and your intelligent disciple.

Shloka 3

In this army there are great warriors comparable to Bheem and Arjun, like Yuyudhana (Satyaki), Virata and Drupadha.

Besides these, Drushtaketu, Chekitan, the mighty King of Kasi, Purujit Kunti Bhoj and the great among men Shaibya

Shloka 5

Very powerful Yudhamanyu and mighty Uttamouja, Subadhra ‘s son Abhimanyu and the five sons of Darupadi are all great warriors.

Shloka 6

Hey great Brahmin! You should also understand the leaders who are in your favor. For your information, I tell the commanders of my army.

Shloka 7

You Dronacharya and Pitamah Bhishma and Karna and victorious Kripacharya and likewise Ashwatthama, Vikarna and Bhurishrava son of Somadatta.

Shloka 8

And many knights who have given up hope of life for me, are equipped with many weapons and all are smart in war.

Shloka 9

Our army guarded by Bhishma Pitamah is invincible in every way and this army of these people protected by Bhima is easy to win.

Shloka 10

Therefore, while keeping their place on all fronts, you all undoubtedly protect Bhishma Pitamah from all sides.

Morale stories from Mahabharat's Character Abhimanyu's life.

From Mahabharat To You

The thought of revenge only brings destruction. People with intention of killing other's should start digging a grave for themselves too. Revenge, the root cause of Mahabharata. It brought nothing but death and destroyed Kaurva's. Pandavas also lost many of their loved ones. Only Yudhishthir survived on the way to heaven.

Revenge Is Best Not Served At All

Life is a Chakravyooh. To enter is our responsibility and get out of it is our destination. We have no control on afterlife, not yesterday, not today and not tomorrow. Work is worship. We know how we enter in Chakravyooh of life we struggle to find a way out of it. So fight hard and stand strong till the end.

Against All Odds 

Abhimanyu learnt to enter the Chakravyooh but had no knowledge about how to exit it. Always gain complete knowledge about anything. Half knowledge is trouble on the way.

Just The Half Of It-Not Enough

It takes courage to stand strong against the evil in the society. Do not fear if no one is with you, keep fighting till your last breath. The Mahabharata war teaches us about sacrificing our lives for the safety of truth and our loved ones.

Fear Has No Place

No matter how tough the situation is deal with it without fear. Trust your knowledge and use it wherever necessary. Make a dent in the universe. Always try to make an impact with your good deeds. Live for a purpose and not just for eating and earning money. Be a reason for someone's happiness and make people around you feel safe with you.

Be A Hero In Real Life

During the Mahabharat war, Abhimanyu was stranded alone inside the Chakravyooh with enemies on all sides. He knew his time has come, yet he took his sword in one hand and the wheel of his chariot in another and fought till his last breath like a brave soldier. The Mahabharat War teaches us to never let fear overpower our thoughts no matter how worst the situation is. People who do not trust themselves usually are more worried about winning and loosing.

Believe In Yourself

Failure is not wrong, it's not the end. Life is a journey and it's obvious that winning and loosing has a part to play in it. Don't lose hope of winning the war just because you lost a battle. Learn to accept defeat with respect and keep on trying. During the War of Mahabharat Abhimanyu fought till the last breath and then accepted his defeat, but he did it with so much courage that the enemies were feeling ashamed about what they did to him and their eyes were filled with tears and shame.

It's All Point Of View

Be obsessed to gain knowledge. The things you learn in your life live with you until the end. Do everything with passion to learn not just for the sake of completing it. Abhimanyu the warrior of Mahabharata started learning before he was born and kept learning the art of war his entire life. His learning helped him getting into the Chakravyooh and fight against all odds till his last breath. Just like that if you are passionate about your work nothing can stop you from achieving your goals. History has it that many great wars were fought and won with passion to win in the soldiers mind.

Knowledge Is Power

It's said that everything is fare in war. In the war of mahabharat Shri Krishna knew Pandavas needed Arjuna to win the war. Not saving Abhimanyu in the Chakravyooh and not using any weapon in the war was all strategy of lord Shrikrishna.

Always Strategies To Win

Mahabharata

The eternal truth of humanity and it's relationship with every living and non living organism in the universe.

What Do We Learn

Don't mind if someone is pointing out mistakes in your art work. Never let pride takeover you.

1. Consumed By Pride

We live a life of delusion, we think if we can get a certain something we will be happy thereafter. But this is a neverending appetite.

2. Never-ending Greed

When tough times knock at our doors, self confidence is the first one to leave out the window. Ironically, that's what we actually need the most to fight back and survive. People who consume your time, energy and focus are all around you, find them and stay as far away as possible.

3. Self Confidence, Time & Energy

When you vent anger on someone, it hurts them pain, It brings pain in their life whenever they remember you.

4. Reflection On Our Anger

The one who act's gets the best. The one who sit's thinking for a long time, get what's left. Stagnant water gets dirty overtime, river contains fresh water.
