Acharya Prashant explains that the Bhagavad Gita, though addressed to a person in a particular problematic situation, remains relevant as long as there are similar people facing similar problems. Arjun's core issue was indecisiveness; he did not know what to do. On one hand, he was troubled by attachment and moral concerns, while on the other, he remembered the personal troubles and insults he and his family had faced from the Kauravas, along with the question of who should rightfully rule. These competing factors left him unable to decide. This state of conflict is timeless because the human mind itself has not fundamentally changed. As long as the human mind is sandwiched between competing priorities and buffeted by attachment, greed, fear, anger, lust, and the urge to know the truth, the Gita will remain relevant. The human mind, by its very nature, is prone to ignorant tendencies, and thus every person will need the light of clarifying knowledge. This is not ordinary worldly knowledge about external objects, but knowledge of the self—the perceiver who feels attached, afraid, and does not know what is right. The subject matter of the Bhagavad Gita is the perceiver's identity and the distinction between duty (Kartavya) and righteousness (Dharma). Inwardly, not much has changed over millennia; the deluded ego and battles over power and property persist today. Therefore, the solution applicable to the inward situation then is also applicable now. Acharya Prashant advises that one must distinguish the time-bound, temporal aspects of any scripture from the timeless, transcendental ones. The parts dealing with the fundamental nature of the mind will always be relevant, while contextual details may lose their significance over time.
