Bhagavad Gita literally means ‘Song of God’. It records the teachings of the great incarnation Bhagavan Sri Krishna, to his disciple Arjuna.
But do you know, Chapter 6, verse 1 of the Bhagavad Gita is the first chapter in which Bhagavan starts talking! Please understand, until then Arjuna was talking and Bhagavan was only responding.
It is like people coming to me with their agitation, doubts, questions. After all their doubts have been answered, they ask, Swamiji, do you have anything else to tell me?
That is when I start talking; advising them, guiding them. Till then, I am only clearing their doubts, their confusions, showing them where they are wrong.
All my conversations, all my answers to your questions and your doubts, are just ways of showing you where you are wrong. Only if I am talking on my own, I am guiding you with what is right.
Please understand, there is a big difference between telling what is wrong and telling what is right.
Only when the disciple is tired of all the questions and doubts, and he says, 'Come on, you tell whatever you want to tell', can the Master begin talking.
