00:00I also have one more confusion so I had a story about Krishna and Arjun like someone
00:08asked them for for some kind of I don't know the exact story but I heard like the guy asked
00:16him they are the guy and the general guy asked them ask them like I want to eat all the jungle
00:25so both Krishna and Arjun killed all the animals from the jungle so if I have to decide on
00:31on the actions of Krishna because we as we discussed about this thing our judgment and
00:38I also believe that action through actions only we can judge so if the story is true and
00:44if I have to see like like even like they might they might be some different message but killing
00:51an animal just to prove another thing is not a first of all would you like to judge your
00:56own action which is the most important document associated with Krishna the Gita instead of
01:08talking about the Gita you want to talk about some story in which Agni Deo comes to Krishna
01:16and says I am you know hungry and I want to eat all the animals of this forest and so
01:23Krishna and Arjun go about burning the forest and slaughtering the animals pretty exciting
01:32story much more exciting than the Gita would you firstly judge yourself right and see what is
01:44it that you are inwardly wanting what if I right now declare that what Krishna did was not only not
01:55godly but even actually inhuman you will get a great pretext to now avoid the Gita Krishna is a bad man he killed all the innocent animals in the forest so now I can safely avoid the Gita that's what you are trying desperately trying
02:14for why else do we want to poke holes I can explain that story to in fact I have already done that a video already exists in which I have explained in detail what all that myth is about I could repeat that entire explanation but before that I want to ask you please when you think of Krishna
02:43do you want to think of Krishna do you want to think of the thousands of stories associated with him or do you want to think of that one document called the Bhagavad Gita and if you are obsessed with those stories does it not tell you that you want to avoid the Gita
03:01Krishna Krishna is a butcher and Acharya Ji is a vegan so now Acharya Ji will have to speak against Krishna see how clever am I
03:23my understanding will be wrong there must be some message why don't you first of all get the message of the Bhagavad Gita sir who will read that message first
03:39why are you so adamant that you would avoid that message maybe after reading the Gita you would be in a better position to understand what separates fact and fiction
04:03what discretion really means how to really read when it comes to spiritual scriptures
04:19you see these are events too too far away from us in history so if you will look at the historicity associated with them
04:47if you will ask for factuality or actuality you will always have enough space for doubt nothing has really been recorded nothing we do not know when he was born we do not even know whether he actually existed you know there is no conclusive indisputable
05:15indisputable evidence
05:17evidence
05:19nothing
05:23so now there is material in front of you
05:27and all the material has the name of Krishna
05:31and there is a lot of material
05:33because the name of Krishna
05:35has passed through innumerable centuries
05:38innumerable centuries
05:40innumerable people
05:42and all people have added something to it
05:44subtracted something to it
05:46this is a vast subcontinent you know
05:50and the myth of Krishna is very very
05:54old
05:56hmm
05:58now all this material is available to you
06:00there are the various purans
06:02devoted to Krishna
06:04there is the Bhagavad Gita
06:06and there is the entire
06:08version of cult
06:10that deals with Vishnu and therefore Krishna
06:14now
06:16the judgment is not upon Krishna
06:26it is upon you
06:28what is it that you want to
06:30pick up from this entire material
06:34the entire material has 20,000 stories
06:38and Bhagavad Gita
06:40and Bhagavad Gita
06:42and the 20,000 stories are about 50 different topics
06:46and everything carries the name of Krishna
06:56now
06:58the jury is out on you
07:02you need to answer why you want to pick up
07:06one piece of material
07:08compared to the other piece
07:10why is it that you want to ignore the Gita
07:12and talk about other miscellaneous things
07:18and I keep facing questions of these kind
07:22there is no answer
07:24if those questions interest you
07:26then stay with those questions
07:28if Krishna was really an avatar
07:30Vyakunti controlled the infighting amongst the Yadavs
07:36his own clan perished
07:42in some kind of a civil war
07:46if he was really so omnipotent
07:50Vyakunti stopped that little hunter
07:54from shooting an arrow into his feet
08:04why did he have to resort to all those things
08:08you know
08:10the killing of
08:20Drona, Bhishma
08:22Jadrat
08:24Duryodhan
08:26all of these were engineered by Krishna
08:28so says the story
08:30Mahabharata that is
08:32and you can
08:38safely say that all of these appear a bit unethical
08:40sometimes grossly unethical
08:42Shikhandi was made to stand in front of Bhishma
08:48Drona was outrightly lied to
08:54Ashwatthamahato
09:00and then even as Ithishthir was saying
09:02Narova Kunjarova
09:04somebody blew his conch
09:06or something
09:10hmmm
09:12against Duryodhan
09:24there was clear
09:30cheating
09:32he was hit where
09:40no warrior can be hit
09:42as per the rules
09:44and Krishna was behind all these things
09:48so you can
09:50keep thinking about all these things
09:52and entertain yourself
09:54it would be good entertainment
09:56or you could simply focus on
09:58the Gita
10:00people
10:10then say
10:12but how do we forget that the same person who told the Gita
10:14is also doing all the other things
10:16then you need not
10:18consider that it is the same person
10:20forget that it is the same person
10:22just focus on the Gita
10:24who is Krishna then?
10:26just the author of the Gita
10:28there
10:30it would certainly have had an author
10:32some author
10:34let the author's name be Krishna
10:36and focus only on Gita
10:38all else is just stories
10:40Gita is not a story you see
10:42Gita is a philosophical document
10:44of the highest order
10:48hmmm
10:50storytelling
11:04this has been the problem with
11:06our country
11:12we are just too obsessed with stories
11:14stories
11:16we are gossip
11:18mongers
11:20just as we love to gossip about our neighbor
11:22we also love to gossip about
11:24the gurus and the gods
11:26we do not want to go into
11:30the Gitas
11:32we want to
11:34indulge and entertain ourselves
11:36with
11:38gossips
11:40when it comes
11:42to a Gita versus gossip
11:44kind of a choice
11:46gossip trumps
11:48ignore Gita
11:50indulge in gossip
11:52what are you doing to yourself?
11:54hmmm
11:56ignore Gita
11:58indulge in gossip
12:00what are you doing to yourself?
12:02hmmm
12:04hmmm
12:06hmmm
12:08hmmm
