Description

Acharya Prashant explains that the conflict faced by Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita is not merely a historical event between two individuals, but a representation of the internal struggle faced by all of humanity. He emphasizes that Shri Krishna and Arjuna reside within every person, where Shri Krishna represents the heart or the core of one's being. Addressing a questioner's doubts about their spiritual progress and daily routine, he asserts that in the realm of internal well-being, the presence of doubt itself is the disease. Unlike physical health, where a diagnosis might prove a doubt baseless, internal suspicion indicates a lack of certainty and security, suggesting that something is fundamentally amiss.
