Its actually a Sanskrit text from the Bhishma Parva of the Mahabharata epic, comprised of 700 verses. It is the conversation between Krishna and Arjun, mostly. It talk about everything in the universe. Bhagavad-Gita means "Song of the Lord"


The Baghavad Gita is part of the much longer epic the Mahabharata. It is Sankrit for "Song of the Lord". The lord refers to Krishna. It is about Krishna and a prince named Arjuna. Faced with battle where Arjuna has to fight his friends and family, he goes to Krishna for advice. Krishna tells Arjuna that a soul can find peace and contentment. ----

Bhagavad Gita is about the symbolic transformation of status quo maintaining Vishnu into Krishna, who symbolizes the positive attitude.

VISHNU - THE PRESERVER:

Vishnu symbolizes the status quo maintaining Semi voluntary force. This maintains our life between our positive (achievement) attitude and negative (satisfaction) attitude.

PARTS OF VISHNU FORCE AND KURUKSHETRA WAR:

1. Negative attitude - Bhishma

2. Positive Self - Kauravas

3. I - Drutarastra

4. Negative Self - Pandavas

5. Positive attitude - Krishna

THE KURUKSHETRA WAR:

The Kurukshetra war is between Pandavas, guided by Krishna and Kauravas guided by Bhishma. In the war every one, except Krishna, die.

KRISHNA - THE SYMBOL OF POSITIVE ATTITUDE:

Positive self and negative attitude give us satisfaction.

Negative self makes us to succeed. However, it is at our positive attitude that we feel like succeeding at all costs.

Thus, Bhagavad Gita symbolically enables us to get rid of every part of the status quo maintaining Vishnu force and just retain the positive attitude, which Krishna symbolizes.
