Description

Acharya Prashant explains that the dialogue between Shri Krishna and Arjun in the Bhagavad Gita is not merely a historical event but a representation of the internal conflict faced by all of humanity. Arjun represents the fragmented, conditioned mind, while Shri Krishna represents the Atman or the center. The conflict Arjun faces—being torn between his duties, emotions, and past memories—is the same struggle every human being experiences daily. Acharya Prashant emphasizes that Shri Krishna is not just an external figure but the very heart of Arjun, and one can only listen to the external Guru when the internal light of grace shines within.
