consideration of the effects of their actions. Arjun, in The Bhagavad-Gita, exhibits disobedience through his initial decision not to engage in combat on the battlefield; but, Arjun also discards his duties as a warrior through his protest. The Bhagavad-Gita, through Arjun’s rejection of war, reflects the concept of dharma (duty), jnana (knowledge), and yoga (discipline), which are integral components of Hinduism.  Throughout The Bhagavad-Gita, Arjun is constantly reminded of these very concepts through his

In the Hinduism Hit “The Bhagavad Gita”, Buddha Weighs Questions of The Truth Could killing but not being emotionally attached solve a conflict? In The Bhagavad Gita, Krishna encourages Arjuna to kill and not be attached. He says, “If you are killed, you win heaven; if you triumph, you enjoy the earth; therefore, Arjuna, stand up and resolved to fight the battle.” The path of my own teachings has three important instructions: moral precepts, no killing; mental concentration, breath-control meditation;

living bodies in the material world are eventually subject to a thing of the past and have to again develop other bodies. This idea of one life coming after another, continuing an endless cycle of life; allows death to never exist. In the epic Bhagavad Gita by the scribe Veda Vyasa, the theme of reincarnation is portrayed by Lord Krishna, telling a young warrior named Arjuna, to not dwell on the physical nature of this world because it can all be born again.

Genesis, a text in the Hebrew Bible, and The Bhagavad Gita, a dated Hindu poem, are both influential classic texts that tell the accounts of two powerful Gods, who share a similar agenda. Although they are similar deities, each has a different way to influence the world. It is apparent in the text that Krishna seems not to care about what acts one commits in the material world, but rather if one person fulfills his or her spiritual duty to him; his concept of spiritual duty is to have complete

In order for gods to enact their divine plans, they often use mortals as their pawns, either using them as prophets or putting them through suffering to test their faith. However, those who blindly follow deities become nothing more than puppets.
