No wise man will ever take your problem seriously, believe me. For the wise one, all your problems are bad jokes—not even worthy of a sound laughter. But then he says, "You know, I can see through. You cannot. So, I'll give up my right to laugh at you. I'll instead pretend to be serious." "Yes, yes, yes, of course! We have a problem!" He says, "You know, there was a time I was so much like you. These same things were big issues even to me. But I know they can be outgrown.

Questioner: Salutations, Revered sir. In verse 2.10, Shri Krishna spoke laughingly or smilingly. When I read this verse for the first time, I won't say I liked it. Arjun is dying in grief, and instead of taking him seriously and helping him, Shri Krishna is smiling.
Acharya Prashant: Yes.
Questioner: I also related Shri Krishna's smiling or laughing here with " Hasbulla of Ashtavakra." You mentioned this phrase, " Hasbulla of Ashtavakra." Even Shri Krishna seems to be following that.
I personally hate someone who takes my problems lightly. I want others to take my problems seriously and duly resolve them, not smile or laugh at them. Please help my situation.
