| Summary: | The Bhagavat Gita has been rightly described by Klostermaier as "8 book of crisis."! Sri krishna speaks to Arjuna when the' latter is vtsem« samupasthitam (II. 2) or engulfed in a crisis. Of course, the teaching, though nominally given to Arjuna, is for all mankind. Arjuna's initial questions, like those of ordinary human beings, are framed within the context of narrow personal problems. They have three main elements; namelv, how not to incur sin (piipam), how to obtain release from sorrow (§okam), and how to attain sreyas (the good of the indjvidual; possibly extended to kinsmen, svajanam). |
