Amar Chitra Katha The Gita

Description

Gita, short for Bhagavad Gita, ‘the Divine Song’, is a philosophical dialogue in the Mahabharata. The setting is the start of the great war between the Kauravas and the Pandavas. Arjuna, the Pandava hero, finds himself ranged against his elders, close kin, friends and teachers. The thought of piercing them with his arrows disturbs him deeply. Distraught, he breaks down, throws away his bow and declares that he will not fight. There, in the middle of the battlefield of Kurukshetra, Krishna counsels his friend about life as well as his duty as a warrior so that he can fight the war with full moral conviction
