In the last teaching I forgot to mention a character that is really important who is Krishna, Arjuna's charioteer. He is the one trying to convince Arjuna to fight. In this teaching, Krishna brings up a really important point that is that when one dies, his body is destroyed but his soul is not damaged at all bringing up the idea of eternal life. This idea is actually, in my opinion, one that is bound to create conflict. This is because it in part is dependent in faith but apparently this is taken in mind of in the story as it being real. This is a good attempt to convince Arjuna but the fact that it is family that is going to fought keeps Arjuna in doubt. I am actually interested in seeing until what point will Arjuna hold back.
