In the land where the Dharmas glow, Spoke Dhritarashtra, wanting to know, "O Sanjay, in the field so vast, What do my sons and Pandu's cast?" Sanjay replied with words so keen, "A sight like none you've ever seen! The Pandavas' ranks, strong and tight, Ready for battle, brimming with might. O Teacher, look with your wise eye, At the army, vast under the sky, Warriors bold, with bows so grand, Standing ready, a fearsome band. In their midst, heroes renowned, Names like thunder, their fame unbound, Yuyudhana, Virata, warriors of fame, Drupada, Dhrishtaketu, great in name. On the other side, with equal zeal, Stood our heroes, steel against steel. Drona, Bhishma, Karna, brave, Ready to fight, their honor to save. But in the midst of this grand scene, Arjuna's heart wavered, once so keen. His bow dropped, his skin burned hot, Confusion reigned, his courage forgot. 'O Krishna,' he cried in despair, 'How can I fight? It's too much to bear! To raise my hand against my kin, Brings no joy, only sin.' Thus he sat, downcast and broken, In his chariot, words of sorrow spoken. And as he pondered what to do, The battle waited and tension grew.

In a place of mighty strife, Where valor's tested, life by life, Arjuna stood with tearful eye, Under the sky, his heart did sigh. "Wherefore this dread, O mighty one?" Krishna asked, his tone begun, "In battle's heart, no place for fear, For noble souls, the path is clear." "Arjuna, let not weakness rise, In your heart, beneath these skies. Stand tall, O warrior of renown, Let not your spirit be cast down. How can I fight, Arjuna cried, Against kin, with arms wide? Against my teachers, honor's due, In this war, what path is true? Better to live on begged bread, Than stain my hands with kinfolk dead. For lands and thrones, what use are these, When hearts and souls are ill at ease? In doubt's maze, we wander blind, Not knowing what in war we'll find. Whether victory or defeat, In this fray, what shall we meet? In confusion, I seek your guide, Tell me, Krishna, what's right to side. As your pupil, I ask of thee, Lead me to clarity, set me free. Even with earth's riches at my hand, Or heavens high at my command, Such treasures won't ease my heart, From this sorrow, I cannot part. "Arjuna, see the bigger scene, Life's more than what it might seem. Those who live, those who die, Are but stages in the sky. Like clothes, we change from old to new, Life's cycle, always true. Untouched by fire, wind, or blade, Our essence forever stays. This soul inside, unseen, unfelt, Beyond the blows, life has dealt. Eternal, constant, always there, Beyond all grief, beyond all care. In the face of life's ebb and flow, Stand unmoved by joy or woe. Those who master their inner tide, Find a peace that will abide. So fight, O warrior brave and true, For duty calls and guides you through. In battle's roar, in life's great play, Stand firm, let not doubt sway. For in this cosmic, timeless dance, Each must play their part, take their chance. In the heart of the storm, find your peace, In the midst of war, let your doubts cease." With wisdom deep, Krishna spoke, In Arjuna's heart, hope awoke. In the midst of war's fierce hour, He found his strength and found his power.

In a world where duty calls, Arjuna asks with walls and halls, "O Krishna, wise, with knowledge vast, Why in grim deeds am I cast? Your words twist and turn in my mind, Please, a clear path, help me find. For clarity, I long and yearn, Teach me the way, help me learn." Krishna speaks with voice so calm, "In human realm, two paths form a balm. One of knowledge, one of deed, Both paths to enlightenment lead. Action, Arjuna, is the key, Not by idleness, free you'll be. In every breath, in every chore, Actions define us, forevermore. Controlling senses, mind so bright, Perform your duties, with all your might. For duty done without desire, Lifts the soul ever higher. Sages of old, in tales told, Through actions, their destinies unfold. As they led, so must you, In actions just and duties true. Nature's forces, in us all, Ignorance can be a fall. But wise are those who see the play, Of nature's dance, day by day. In this world, so vast and wide, In actions just, we must abide. For every deed sets forth a chain, Of events, in loss or gain. So, Arjuna, with bow in hand, In duty's call, firmly stand. For in this cosmic, endless dance, Actions define life's romance."

In a land of mystic tales and light, The ancient wisdom took its flight. From sun to kings, it passed with care, A yoga deep, beyond compare. "Oh valiant one," the Lord did say, "This yoga lost in time's decay. But you, my friend, are chosen true, To hear this secret, bright and new." Arjuna puzzled, raised a brow, "Your birth was recent, how tell me how, Did you to sun, in ages past, This yoga speak, so vast and vast?" The Lord replied, "My births are many, Yours too, but you recall not any. I am unborn, undying, still, Master of all, by my own will." "When righteousness does fade, and wane, In darkness, I return again. To save the good, destroy the vile, Restore the balance, for a while." "Know this, Arjuna, my dear friend, On me all beings do depend. All paths they take, lead back to me, In every act, my hand they see." "The wise see action in inaction, In stillness, find the truest action. Free from desire, their work is pure, In wisdom's fire, they're secure." "Doing, not for reward or gain, But as a duty, clear and plain. Controlled in mind, in body too, They act, but sin does not pursue." "Content with what their actions yield, Unmoved by hate, in battle's field. They work, but are not bound by deeds, In every act, no selfish needs." "Thus, those who know the highest truth, In wisdom's fire, renew their youth. All actions in pure knowledge end, In this path, true peace they find." So Arjuna, with doubt in heart, Learns that action plays a part, In reaching truth, in breaking free, From chains of birth, eternally. "Stand up, Arjuna, take your bow, With wisdom's sword, cut doubt and woe. In balance act, and fearless be, In yoga's path, you'll truly see."

In a land where wise Krishna spoke, Arjuna questioned the path to evoke. "Between renouncing deeds and doing right, Which path leads to a brighter light?" Krishna smiled, his wisdom vast, "Both paths lead to peace at last. But in action, one finds greater might, For doing good sets the soul alight." "Those free from hate and desire's flame, Are yogis true, in more than name. Indifferent to the dualities of life, They rise above the worldly strife." The learned see, the foolish part, That action and knowledge are not apart. For he who dwells in wisdom's glow, Embraces all, high and low. In deeds, the yogi finds his way, Pure of heart, in actions sway. Detached in doing, calm in mind, Unity in all, he comes to find. The seeker who finds joy within, Untouched by outer din, In self alone finds bliss so deep, In this truth, his soul does keep. For fleeting joys of sense and sight, Are but the causes of endless plight. The wise, unswayed by such allure, Find in stillness, joy pure and sure. And those who withstand passion's wave, Before the body finds its grave, They are the yogis true and kind, In them, eternal peace we find. In every creature, high and low, The wise see the same divine glow. In this vision, all distinctions cease, In the heart of wisdom, they find peace. So in this tale of ancient lore, The truths of life are at its core. In action, wisdom, peace, and love, We find our path to realms above.

In a world full of hustle and bustle, Hear a tale that's quite a puzzle. It's about work without the cling, For peace, not just for the bling. There's a yogi who knows the way, Not just in words that they say. True yoga isn't just about retreat, It's in the actions and the beat. With a mind clear and heart so light, They see beyond the day and night. For them, the world's a stage so vast, Where each moment is not the last. They're friends with self, not the foe, Guiding their mind, high and low. In the balance of sleep and wake, Their path is clear, no mistake. They see the same in stone and gold, Unswayed by tales of old. In joy and sorrow, heat and cold, Their spirit is brave and bold. They rise above the petty fight, In darkness, they find the light. With every breath, and every stance, They give each soul a fair chance. For them, the world is not a race, Each step is with grace. In yoga, they find their space, In every heart, they leave a trace. So, be like the yogi, strong and wise, See the world through such eyes. In every moment, find the prize, And in your heart, let peace arise.

In the world of all that's seen and unseen, Said the Lord to the seeker keen: "Devote your heart and you'll know the whole, The mystery deep within your soul." "I'll share the wisdom, complete and vast, Once known, nothing else you'll ask. Among thousands, few strive for the peak, And fewer still my essence seek." "Earth, water, fire, air, sky, Mind, reason, ego – all in I. Beyond these, my nature's higher part, Sustains the world with its beating heart." "From union of both my natures true, All life springs forth, this I tell you. I am the source, the end, the stay, In me all things their roles play." "I am the taste in waters clear, The light in sun and moon so dear. In the sacred Om, my voice does ring, In men, the courage to do anything." "The sweet fragrance in the earth, the fire's glow, The life in all, the ascetic's vow. The seed of all, the wisdom in the sage, In the strong, the strength free of rage." "Affected not by qualities three, Yet in me, all things you see. Hard to surpass is my divine illusion, Reached only by loving devotion." "Some, blinded by material lust, In lower natures place their trust. But my true seekers find the way, In devotion, they do not stray." "Among my devotees, great and small, The wise, in constant love, surpass them all. For they see me in all, and all in me, In unity, their hearts are free." "Many lives it takes to see, The truth of all, in me, be. But rare is the soul who this mystery finds, In me, their heart and mind binds." "People worship gods of every kind, I strengthen faith in their mind. Their desires, through me, fulfilled, But fleeting are the joys they build." "Those who worship other gods with zest, Reach them, but my devotees are blessed. For in me, eternal joy they find, Beyond the limits of the mind." "Blinded by ignorance, some can't see, My unmanifest divinity. Covered by my mystic play, I remain hidden from those astray." "But those who seek with heart and soul, Understand the cosmic role. They see past birth and death's dark night, And find in me eternal light." "Confused by desire and hate, Many in birth and death's cycle wait. But those whose sins are washed away, In devotion, find the true way." "Seeking freedom from age and death, In me, they draw their every breath. Knowing all, the spirit, the law, In the end, my truth they saw." "Those who know the spirit, the divine, And the force of the sacred sign, Even at life's final breath, In me they trust, beyond death."

Arjuna asks with open eyes: "What is Brahman, can you tell? What's Adhyatma, in us dwell? Karma's secret, can you share? Adhibhuta, what is there? And Adhidaiva, please define, In this body, where does it shine? Adhiyajna, who might be, Living inside, secretly? In death's moment, how do you see, Souls departing, where do they flee?" Lord Krishna, in reply, Spoke of truths that never die: "Brahman is the endless quest, Adhyatma, the soul's own zest. Karma, the act that sets life free, Adhibhuta, the physical we see. Adhidaiva, the divine, In your heart, it does entwine. Adhiyajna, that's me indeed, In your actions, in every deed. At life's end, those who think of me, Find my form, forever free. What you ponder as you depart, Shapes the journey, the new start. So remember, in fight or peace, Keep me in mind, never cease. My devotees, with steadfast love, Reach my abode, high above. The realms of life, a cycle's spin, But in my grace, transcendence begin. A day of Brahma, a cosmic sweep, A night as long, a time so deep. Creation wakes, then fades away, In Brahma's night, it cannot stay. Yet beyond this, unseen, untold, Lies the realm that does not fold. The unmanifest, the ultimate goal, The final resting place of the soul. Paths of light and dark are laid, Choose with care, be not afraid. For those who know, no confusion reigns, In yoga's path, wisdom sustains. Above all rites, above all deeds, To my supreme abode, this knowledge leads."

In a world so vast and wide, A secret knowledge does reside. Pure and supreme, it stands apart, A sacred truth to fill your heart. This knowledge, the king of all that's known, In righteous acts, its seeds are sown. Easy to follow, hard to see, It sets the boundless spirit free. Those who doubt, they wander far, In life's endless cycle, near and far. But those with faith, they understand, The world is held in a divine hand. All creatures dwell within this might, Yet the divine's beyond our sight. Invisible, yet everywhere, A cosmic dance, beyond compare. Like wind that roams the sky so vast, In the divine, all beings are cast. When time ends, they return to rest, In nature's womb, they are repressed. Creation's cycle, endlessly turns, From divine nature, all life returns. Detached, the divine oversees, Unbound by actions, forever free. All rituals, prayers, and sacred words, In the divine, their echoes heard. The father, mother, eternal seed, In every role, the divine leads. In sun's fierce heat, in death, in life, In joy and sorrow, in peace and strife. The divine plays every part, Holding the universe in its heart. Offerings simple, like leaf or flower, Are cherished gifts of divine power. Every action, every deed, Offer to the divine, be freed. In this offering, find release, From bonds of karma, find your peace. In equality, the divine stays, Loving all in countless ways. Even the lost, when they believe, In their devotion, peace they receive. For in devotion, all are one, Under the vast, eternal sun. So chant my name, with love and grace, In every act, seek my face. With every breath, in every thought, In my love, you'll be caught. For those who seek with heart so pure, To them, my love is ever sure. In this journey, long and steep, In my embrace, your soul I'll keep.

In a world so vast, where mysteries abound, Hear the words of the Lord, profound. Neither gods nor sages know my start, For I am the source, in every heart. Unborn, without beginning, I reign, Freeing souls from sin's dark chain. In me, wisdom, truth, and calmness dwell, From me, all qualities spring and swell. Great sages and ancient beings of might, Born of my thought, shining bright. Understand this, and in meditation deep, The wise worship me, their souls to keep. With minds and lives in me entwined, They find joy in me, peace of mind. To the steadfast, love in worship shown, I grant wisdom's path, to me alone. In their hearts, I light the lamp of truth, Dispelling ignorance, giving eternal youth. Arjuna, you see, in me all is found, Supreme, pure, in mystery bound. Sages, divine Narada, and Vyasa too, All declare this mystery, ever true. Only I know me, in my divine play, Ruler of all, in every way. My glories, countless, pervade all space, In every heart, I hold my place. From the sun to the moon, from fire to sea, In every essence, there you'll find me. From the highest peak to the deepest core, In every hymn, every lore. In the Peepul tree, in the sage's word, In every creature, I am heard. I am time, the wind, the storm, In every form, I transform. In every letter, every sound, In every being, I am found. My glories, endless, a wondrous sight, A part of me in every light. But why ponder every detail and part? I am the whole, in every heart.

In a land far away, in a time untold, Arjuna stood brave and bold. "Reveal to me," he did implore, "The secret truth, the ancient lore." Lord Krishna, with a smile so wide, Revealed the cosmos that resides inside. "Behold my forms, a thousand and more, In colors and shapes never seen before." "From me, all life begins and ends, In my vision, the universe bends. With eyes like suns, and faces galore, A spectacle of wonder, impossible to ignore." Arjuna, awestruck by the sight, Felt his heart filled with light. He saw the world in just one glance, Within Krishna's cosmic dance. "Who are you, in this fearsome form?" Asked Arjuna, weathering the storm. "I am time, the destroyer of all, In my presence, the mighty fall." But fear not, Arjuna, for this is your role, To fight the battle, to reach your goal. For in this play, you're but a part, In the grand design, a work of art. With a bow and arrow in his hand, Arjuna understood the grand plan. In Krishna's grace, he found his way, Ready to face the battle fray. So the story goes, in rhyme and verse, Of the universe, vast and diverse. In Krishna's eyes, the world does spin, A tale of courage, found within.

In a world of faith and views so wide, Devotion's path, where hearts abide. Two paths of worship, clear and bright, One sees the form, the other, light. The first with fervor, they embrace, In constant thought, they seek the grace. The second, formless, vast, unseen, In stillness, depth, where truth has been. Yet seekers of the unseen strain, For formless paths are hard to gain. The faithful, with their hearts so pure, In my embrace, they are secure. "Focus your mind, your heart," I say, "In me, you'll find the brightest day. If steady thought seems far from reach, Let practice be the way I teach." If practice too seems hard to hold, In action find your path of gold. And if in action you're confined, Release your fruits, in peace, you'll find. The wise, who see all life as one, Beyond the hate, the harm, undone. In joy and sorrow, praise and blame, They find in me their lasting aim. Equal in love, in pain and cheer, Detached, serene, they hold no fear. Such souls, in steady wisdom true, Are dear to me, as I am to you. This path of love, of gentle grace, Leads to my heart, a sacred place. So drink this nectar, pure and sweet, In love and faith, we surely meet.

Oh listen, listen, to what I say, Of the body, the field, where wisdom may lay. The knower of the field, wise and so grand, In every field, I am, understand. This field is complex, made of many a part, With nature and mind, and senses that dart. Feelings like joy and sorrow, they play, In this field they mingle, in every way. Pure of heart, with no pride or show, With forgiveness, kindness, a peaceful glow. Detachment from senses, and from desires, In wisdom's light, the soul aspires. The body and spirit, in dance they twine, Creating life, in forms so fine. Seeing the eternal in all that fades, The wise one sees truth that never degrades. Through meditation, knowledge, or deed, Seeking the soul, from bondage freed. Some learn from others, some find within, Paths to the truth, where freedom begins. So see the body, and spirit within, As separate yet together, in life's great spin. Those who see this, with vision so clear, Reach the highest truth, without any fear.

Hear these words, oh wise and keen, Of truths profound, and sights unseen. Knowledge pure, the sages sought, In this world, where battles fought. Nature's womb, where life takes root, I, the seed, in endless loop. Three qualities, all life they bind, In mortal frames, they weave and wind. Sattva, pure, with light it shines, In wisdom's glow, it intertwines. Rajas drives with passion's fire, Actions call, never tire. Tamas, dark, in shadows cast, Ignorance deep, in slumber vast. These forces vie, in constant play, Guiding life, night and day. Rising high, sattva's grace, To realms serene, its destined place. Rajas to human form returns, While tamas, in darkness, churns. Deeds of good, sattva's seed, Rajas brings sorrow's need. Tamas, in ignorance, steeped, A path where wisdom's rarely reaped. Beyond these traits, the wise aspire, To higher realms, their hearts on fire. Unmoved by light, action, or shade, In equanimity, their paths are laid. In dirt, stone, or gold, the same, Praise or scorn, no claim to fame. Beyond all acts, desires cease, In tranquil heart, they find their peace. Devotion pure, the highest call, Transcends these bounds, breaks every wall. In me, the eternal, all reside, In this truth, let hearts abide.

A tree of life, so vast and grand, Roots reaching up, branches expand. Its leaves are the words of wisdom's flow, Who knows the tree, the truths will know. Branches spread with qualities three, Binding all in life's grand spree. Roots stretch far, in realms unseen, In actions lies their power keen. This cosmic tree, so old and wise, No start or end, a grand disguise. Its form unknown, beyond our sight, Cut it down with truth's sharp light. Then seek the realm beyond the sky, Where souls find rest and never die. To this realm, all creation owes, In this truth, the wise one grows. Free from pride, from delusion clear, Conquering flaws that once were near. In constant union with the divine, Beyond the dualities, they shine. To the light, no sun can reach, Where eternal peace, the sages teach. There lies the ultimate abode, The heart's true home, the final road. In this world, we're but a part, Attracted to nature's art. We move and live, in bodies lent, Guided by senses, wherever sent. Like the wind carries a scent, Soul shifts, in bodies spent. Through the senses, the world we taste, In this journey, no time to waste. Some see the truth, with vision clear, While others lost, in darkness near. But those who seek with heart so pure, Find the divine, their path sure. In sun and moon, the light divine, In fire's glow, it does shine. I am the force that all sustains, In every heart, my spirit reigns. I am the fire that digests all food, In every being, I'm subtly viewed. In hearts I dwell, knowledge I bring, The source of all, the eternal king. In this world, two spirits dwell, One perishable, the other, a constant well. The highest spirit, above them soars, Sustaining all, opening doors. Beyond the transient, I am found, Above the eternal, my name resounds. The Supreme One, in scriptures told, In me, the mysteries of life unfold. He who knows me as the highest one, Worships truly, the eternal sun. Thus, this secret, to you I tell, Know this wisdom, and all is well.

Fearless hearts, pure in thought, In yoga's strength, wisdom sought. Giving freely, senses tamed, In duty's toil, honor claimed. Speak truth, harm none, let anger go, Worldly desires, let them flow. Kindness reigns, humility's seed, In simple actions, pure in deed. Brightness, patience, cleanse within, No hatred's trace, nor pride's sin. These traits, Arjuna, divine in kind, Guide the noble, enlightened mind. Arrogance, wrath, hardness of heart, These traits, my friend, set us apart. Darkness they bring, a troubled way, In divine virtues, seek to stay. In this world, two natures lie, Divine and dark, beneath the sky. In truth and kindness, find your role, Let noble actions be your goal. False views, misguided minds, In darkness, no truth one finds. Seek the light, the higher way, In righteous actions, every day. Bound by desires, lost in dreams, Caught in illusions, or so it seems. Rise above, let go of greed, In selfless actions, find your need. Three gates to ruin, beware, Lust, anger, greed, don't dare. Turn away, find the light, In righteous path, find your might. Know the truth, let wisdom guide, In sacred texts, let your heart reside. In duty's path, with virtue strong, To higher realms, you'll belong.

Arjuna asks with a curious tone, "What faith guides those who pray alone? Without the scripture's guiding light, To gods, they offer rites so bright." Lord Krishna speaks, his words so wise, "Faith in three forms, before our eyes: Sattvic pure, Rajasic bold, Tamasic dark, in tales old." He continues with a gentle nod, "Faith mirrors the heart, deep and broad. Each soul reflects its inner flame, In faith and deeds, they find their name." The Sattvic, calm and serene, Worship gods, unseen, unseen. Rajasic, with ambitions vast, Seek spirits of a darker cast. Tamasic, in shadows dwell, Haunt with ghosts they know too well. Misled, they stray from righteous path, In ignorance, they face the wrath. Krishna explains the food we cherish, By nature, it will nourish. Sattvic eats what heals and mends, Rajasic, where spice ascends. Tamasic craves the stale, the old, In their choice, their nature told. In yajnas, too, the pattern holds, Threefold paths, as life unfolds. The Sattvic, pure, devoid of lust, In duty, they place their trust. Rajasic seek reward, acclaim, In ritual, they play the game. Tamasic, without heart or creed, In their acts, no holy seed. Krishna tells of penance due, Body, speech, and mind, in view. Speak the truth, harm none, be kind, In these acts, true peace you'll find. With a heart both pure and light, Lead your soul to righteous height. Krishna's words, like a guiding star, Show the path, both near and far. In faith and deed, our spirits soar, Towards a truth worth striving for.

Arjuna asks with humble plea, "Teach me, Krishna, so I may see, The truths of renounce and sacrifice, In your words, lies wisdom nice." Said Krishna with a voice so clear, "Sacrifice is more than it appears, Not just leaving actions behind, But letting go of fruits in mind. Perform your duty, true and bold, Without desire for rewards untold. Such actions cleanse the wise and sage, Freeing them from life's cage. Some actions are never to be shed, Like charity, duty, disciplines led. These purify the heart and soul, And guide us to our ultimate goal. A mind attached to selfish gain, Can never know the inner lane. Only he who acts without desire, Can rise above, ever higher. Actions done with fear or dread, Or for mere pleasure, they've said, Are not the path to wisdom's door, They lead us back, forever more. For every deed and thought we make, A consequence will surely take. But he who acts in wisdom's light, Is freed from this eternal fight. So Arjuna, hear this now and here, Act with wisdom, clear of fear. Dedicate each deed to me, And in that act, you'll truly be free. In the heart of all, I reside, Guiding the chariot we ride. Surrender to me with faith and love, And reach the peaceful realms above." With these words, the lesson ends, Arjuna's heart, now it mends. "I'll follow your words," he declares, "I am free from doubts and snares." Where Krishna guides the chariot's way, And Arjuna fights the righteous fray, There victory, fortune, glory abide, And steadfast dharma will always reside.
