Bhagavad Gita Reflections

✨ Chapter 1: Observing the Armies on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra ✨
Acronym: D.O.U.B.T

D: Dhritarastra & Duryodhana (1-12) Innumerable soldiers have assembled on the battlefield of Kuruksetra due to the selfish, deep-rooted aspirations of these two characters, hell-bent on usurping their cousins’ kingdom. Sitting in his palace, King Dhritarastra inquires about the latest events on the battlefield, while his son Duryodhana is busy firing up his army as it prepares for fratricidal war. Dhritarastra is physically blind, but he and his son are also blinded by greed, envy and material desire.

When one’s mindset revolves around ‘I, me and mine’ engrossed in thoughts of selfish gain and material pleasure, then anxiety, frustration and disappointment are inevitable. Such materially entangled persons become oblivious to the ill-effects of their actions.

O: Ominous Result (13-20) The conchshells resound, signifying the battle will soon commence, much like a referee’s whistle at the onset of a football match. The commentators study the scene and identify hidden signs in them. Despite Duryodhana’s boastful words, the ominous result of this confrontation is made clear from the onset. Too many signs indicate his inevitable defeat at the hands of the Pandavas. 

Those who stand on the side of purity and integrity always emerge victorious, regardless of whether the worldly odds are stacked against them. One who is a carrier of goodness and spirituality is never overcome by evil.

U: Uncertainty (21-27)  Despite his righteous and noble position, Arjuna develops an uncertainty, standing in uncomfortable opposition to his family and teachers. The chariots are readied, arrows are drawn, battle cries are sounded, but Arjuna remains hesitant. He then does the unthinkable! He tells Krishna to drive to the middle of the battlefield – not for strategic warfare purposes, but to step back, hit the pause button and reconsider life. It’s impossible to capture the sheer unexpectedness of Arjuna’s act! Despite being faced with practically every pressure under the sun to dive into action, Arjuna prioritises introspection. Some things are so important that it’s not about having time, it’s about making time.

O Lord, in moments of uncertainty, help me make time to listen within, so that my actions arise from wisdom and not from pressure.

B: Bewilderment (28-30) Foreseeing the suffering and death that is the inevitable consequence of warfare, Arjuna begins to lose his composure. At this stage, bereft of broader spiritual vision, his uncertainty transforms into bewilderment, baffled as to what his next move should be. He is plunged into existential confusion. When one lacks an understanding of his spiritual identity, his relationship with God, and the fundamental purpose behind this world, one inevitably becomes confused and frustrated by events and experiences of life.

O Lord, when my heart loses clarity and the world stops making sense, let not confusion swallow me

 T: Turning Point (31-42) Arjuna looks for immediate relief, offering solid arguments to justify leaving the battlefield: 

- 1) It would be cruel and heartless to prematurely terminate the lives of so many soldiers; 

- ⁠2) Even an unrivaled kingdom would bring no happiness, since he’d be bereft of his near and dear ones;

- ⁠3) One would surely accrue bad karma as a result of such brutal violence; 

- ⁠4) The wholesale killing involved would destroy the family unit and social structure, wreaking havoc for future generations. 

His mind overwhelmed by grief, Arjuna sets aside his weapons and resolves not to fight. Though his points sound convincing, Krishna will soon impart timeless wisdom to seismically shift his paradigms.

O Lord, when my mind builds convincing arguments just to escape discomfort, remind me that immediate relief is not the same as true resolution.

✨ Chapter 2: Contents of the Gītā Summarized ✨

🆎 Acronym: G.I.T.A

Chapter Two is a succinct overview of the Gita’s philosophy. Arjuna approaches Krishna in humility and desperation, inviting Krishna to present the most fundamental truth of spiritual wisdom: the science of the soul. Krishna then explains the practical application of such wisdom, and concludes by describing the symptoms of one who has fully internalised such truths. Krishna thus summarises the spiritual journey from beginning to end. In actuality, there is no ‘end’ to the spiritual journey because it's from this point that real life begins

✨ G: Guru (1-10) ✨

Desiring not to fight, but simultaneously torn and confused, Arjuna approaches Krishna in desperation. “I am in dire need of guidance,” he humbly submits, “please enlighten me and mitigate my miserable misery.” Arjuna teaches us the first fundamental step in spirituality; seeking help from an authentic guru who has mastered the spiritual art and embodies what they teach. Most things in life require a qualified teacher and the spiritual path is no different. Some believe that everything they require for their spirituality is contained within, and while there may be truth to that, we still require help to reawaken that innate spiritual consciousness. As the saying goes, “One who accepts himself as a guru, accepts a fool for a disciple!”

O Lord, Grant me the sincerity to seek guidance from those who see further than I do, and the wisdom to accept instruction without resistance.

✨ I: Identity (11-30) ✨

In response to Arjuna’s confusion, Krishna reveals something simple but profound – “You are not this body” He says, “but an eternal, indestructible spirit soul.” We’re spiritual beings on a human journey! As the bird lives in a cage, and as the driver operates a car, we, the spirit soul, similarly inhabit, animate and utilise this body to and interact with the world. Yet we are different from this body. In ignorance of this, the soul is subjected to the process of reincarnation, accepting unnatural material bodies and the subsequent sufferings and distresses of life in this material world. This is the first teaching that the guru imparts; knowledge of who we really are. While it may seem elementary and basic, such wisdom has rarely been understood and applied. When our decisions factor in this crucial understanding, it re-routes our entire life trajectory, as Arjuna will himself experience.

O Lord, I forget who I really am and get trapped in a body that was never meant to define me. Help me awaken, not just in theory, but in living experience — that I am an eternal soul and Yours alone.

✨ T: Two Duties (31-53) ✨

Knowing our identity helps us clearly define our purpose in life. Dharma loosely translates as “duty” but in a deeper sense refers to intrinsic characteristics and qualities of something that cannot be avoided, neglected or negated under any circumstance. On one hand, the embodied soul has a sva-dharma, a worldly duty which consists of responsibilities towards family, and society. On the other hand, the soul has a sanatana-dharma, an eternal spiritual duty which comprises of one’s relationship with God, nature and all spirit souls. One must execute these two dimensions of dharma side-by-side, finding a life of integration. Krishna beautifully explains the activities and mindset of the spiritualist who is alert to both duties, and who thus leads a balanced and progressive material and spiritual life.

O Lord, when I remember who I truly am, my purpose in this world becomes clearer. Teach me to serve both my duties in life and my eternal duty to You.

✨ A: Atmarama (54-72) ✨

One who learns this art of living elevates their consciousness and becomes an atmarama - a spiritually realised soul who finds pleasure in the self. Arjuna is interested to know how he can identify such a unique soul. Krishna explains that the atmarama is unaffected by happiness or distress, gain or loss, honour or dishonour. Transcending the dualities of this world, such a spiritualist rids himself of qualities such as fear, attachment, and anger, and remains absorbed in spiritual joy and transcendental consciousness. The atmarama ultimately enters into eternity, freeing himself from the imprisonment of the material world.

O Lord, true satisfaction is not found in this world but in resting my heart in You.

✨ Chapter 3: Karma-yoga ✨

🆎 Acronym: T.R.E.E

A tree produces many fruits, but selflessly offers them to others. In all seasons, the tree dutifully offers shade and shelter regardless of mistreatment by man or animal. When a tree is cut, it grows back with determination, strength and fresh vigour, ready to serve the world again. The life and qualities of the tree demonstrates the art of living and functioning in this world with grace, resilience and deep selflessness. When we emulate these qualities and connect our daily work to Divinity, it is known as karma-yoga. This chapter thus echoes the famous Biblical wisdom: “Be in the world but not of it.”
