To answer this Arjuna is saying even if they intend to slay him he will not slay them.
Srimad bhagavad gita chapter 1 free#
If it is put forth that although Arjuna out of compassion might not wish to slay his enemies but it is certain that his enemies will surely slay him to keep the kingdom free from thorns. One can desire a kingdom for the happiness of ones kinsman even at the cost of ones own life but in this battle when the destruction of ones kin is certain it is a fruitless desire to engage in battle. are given in the second half of verse 32 beginning: yesam arthe. The reason for not desiring the kingdom etc. Kim nu mahikrate = then why for this lands.īy Arjuna addressing Lord Krishna as Govinda expresses that since Lord Krishna is the knower of all the functions of the senses, Lord Krishna is also the knower of his mind.

Na kamkshe vijayam krishna na ca rajyam sukkani ca, ( O Govinda, of what avail to us are kingdoms, happiness or even life itself when all those for whom we may desire them are now arrayed in this battlefield? O Madhusūdana, when teachers, fathers, sons, grandfathers, maternal uncles, fathers-in-law, grandsons, brothers-in-law and all relatives are ready to give up their lives and properties and are standing before me, then why should I wish to kill them, though I may survive? O maintainer of all creatures, I am not prepared to fight with them even in exchange for the three worlds, let alone this earth.)
