00:00There is the Mahabharata battle and we are in Kurukshetra.
00:05And the entire Gita has been narrated to Arjun and still he is not fully beyond his feelings
00:16of attachment.
00:19So he is not able to fight Bhishma Pitama with total rigour.
00:24Now what does Krishna do at this moment?
00:28He jumps down from the chariot, picks up an abandoned wheel from the ground and rushes
00:41towards Bhishma to attack him.
00:44This is a clear and unapologetic display of emotion.
00:51But this is great.
00:53Emotions come from Prakriti.
00:55Prakriti is also called as Maya and Krishna is called as Mayapati.
00:59So Krishna is the master of Maya thereby also the master of emotions.
01:06He is not carried away by emotions.
01:09He uses emotions for a higher goal.
01:12What is the higher goal?
01:14The higher goal is that Dharma should win.
01:16And for Dharma should win, Arjun must wholeheartedly fight.
01:22So to make Arjun fight, Krishna has expressed his emotions.
01:30Now such expression is auspicious and most welcome.
