Q & A
What is the significance of the chariot described in the script?
-The chariot is a symbol of divine favor and victory, as it was gifted by Agni, the fire god. It also features the image of Hanuman, representing strength and devotion. These elements emphasize the divine blessings Krishna and Arjuna receive as they prepare for battle.
Why does Arjuna ask Krishna to take him between the two armies?
-Arjuna wants to observe the enemy forces and assess their strength. He is also anxious to see who has joined Duryodhana and understand their motivations, especially since they have assembled to fight in the battle. Arjuna is not seeking peace negotiations but is trying to understand the magnitude of the challenge.
How does Arjuna view Duryodhana in the script?
-Duryodhana is described as 'evil-minded,' and his arrogance is emphasized. He refuses peace talks and desires to fight, which Arjuna recognizes. This negative perception of Duryodhana drives Arjuna’s firm decision not to propose peace negotiations.
What does the phrase 'birds of the same feather' imply in the context of the script?
-'Birds of the same feather' implies that those who joined Duryodhana are likely to share his negative and aggressive mindset. Arjuna, by requesting to observe the battlefield, wants to understand who these individuals are and what drives them to fight.
Why is Arjuna confident of victory despite his internal conflict?
-Arjuna feels confident of victory because Krishna, a divine figure, is on his side. The presence of Krishna offers Arjuna reassurance about his ultimate success in the battle, even though he still faces doubts and anxiety about the fight itself.
Why does Arjuna not seek peace talks despite knowing the enemy's strength?
-Arjuna is aware that peace talks are futile because Duryodhana had already rejected them before. Krishna had offered Duryodhana peace negotiations by suggesting they be given five villages, but Duryodhana refused. This solidifies Arjuna’s belief that war is inevitable.
What is the deeper emotional conflict that Arjuna faces in the script?
-Arjuna is torn between his duty as a warrior and his compassion for those fighting on the opposing side. His internal conflict revolves around the moral dilemma of war, which he struggles to reconcile with his sense of righteousness.
How does the script suggest Arjuna's indecisiveness in fighting the battle?

What role does Krishna play in Arjuna’s internal conflict?
-Krishna plays the role of a guide and confidante. Arjuna seeks Krishna's help to navigate his emotional turmoil, and Krishna will later provide him with wisdom to understand his duty and find clarity regarding his actions in the battle.
How does the script set the stage for the philosophical teachings in the Bhagavad Gita?
-The script sets the stage for Krishna’s philosophical teachings by showing Arjuna’s internal conflict and indecisiveness. Krishna’s guidance will soon address Arjuna’s doubts and help him understand the deeper spiritual significance of his duty, which becomes the foundation of the Bhagavad Gita's teachings.
