00:00Arjun was never guaranteed a victory, but it turned out that Arjun won and Krishna never tells Arjun, not a single
00:07verse in the entire Bhagavad Gita. Arjun, I am with you.
00:10You will definitely win and Krishna could have very easily made that promise, no? Don't you find it surprising? Krishna never makes that promise.
00:16All he says is you have to fight.
00:19You have to fight and I'll not assist you. I'll never pick up weapons. The fight is yours.
00:23You will fight it and you must fight. Fight and he does win. It's possible
00:28he might not have won. Still, the Gita stands its place.
00:32Let's say Arjun was killed. Would that undervalue the Gita? Doesn't matter.
00:37Doesn't matter. Duryodhana won. Arjun got killed. Arjun fought valiantly and was martyred. Fine. Very fine.
00:43So try and don't think too much of the result. The attempt is sufficient. Make it a heartful,
00:49honest attempt in love. Love the fight. That's real love.
