Bhagavad-Gita Lesson 1


This lesson was a little overwhelming with names but out of all that confusion, I understood this. There are these two people, Arjuna and Dhritarashtra, that are about to begin a fight for who is going to have control of the kingdom. Arjuna, the main character, is hesitating about fighting because he wants the best of his people and is in conflict of wether to back out or fight.


Like half of this whole lesson was explaining where the armies and generals were positioned or something like that which was really misleading. From about twenty names mentioned, only two were actually important. The conflict appears to be between fighting or backing out and this might get pretty deep.
