Acharya Prashant explains that the primary conflict in the Mahabharata is the internal war between Shri Krishna and Arjuna, where Arjuna resists the truth. He emphasizes that human beings possess the inherent choice to resist understanding, and even the most profound discourses fail if the listener chooses to remain closed. Shri Krishna is portrayed as being extra cautious because his direct approach to taking Arjuna to the center of being has failed. Consequently, he provides precautionary advice, detailing the specific reasons why an individual might fail to grasp the message of the Bhagavad Gita, which applies to all seekers who find themselves disinterested or stuck in their patterns.
