[amdavadis4ever] Meaningful smile!

 



Whatever Drona had taught his son Aswattama, he had  taught Arjuna too. Arjuna is confused and distressed.

The time to advise him has arrived. One who has no  worries is not willing to listen to advice. But one who is  anxious and unhappy will pay attention if offered  advice.

And so Lord Krishna makes use of Arjuna's  confused frame of mind to teach him the Bhagavad  Gita, which is also His advice for all of us who are  confused about our roles in life, said M.K. Srinivasan,  in a discourse.

When Arjuna drops his bow, the Lord smiles. Whydoes He smile? The people Arjuna is refusing to fight  may be his relatives, but they also happen to be people  who have contributed to Arjuna's misery. Were they  not silent spectators when Draupadi was shamed in  court? Were they not the people who had tried to force  the Pandavas out of hiding so that they could send  them back to exile again? And now when Duryodhana  is going to wage war against the Pandavas they are  with him, although he had been unjust.
