GEETA (From  Vedanta- Scripture)
First  Chapter  ( Essence)
(Personal  view)
The  Sloka [couplet]
( Sanskrit - in  Roman- script with phonetic- Spelling  );

Na  cho  sreyo  onuposyaami  hotyaa  swojonom  aahobey |
Na  kaankhe  Bijoyong  Partho , na cho  Raajyo,    sukhaani cho ||
Transliteration :
No prudence I  find  O   krishna in killing  my  kith  and  Keen |
I  want  not  a kingdom , nor  earthly  happiness nor want  to win ||
============================================
My  view :
Here  lies the  state of  confusion in Arjuna .  Even before  he  starts the  fight , he  measures   the result  or  outcome  !
 His  grief is not  for   killing  the   opponent  but  only  those  who  are his  relatives . As if . if they  were not  his  relatives , he would have  enjoyed  this  killing -game !
Arjuna , though  highly  skilled  and unique  in  martial - art, and  a Super-star  hero on the  battle -field   is , as  assessed   by  krishna ,    a  confused  man  in  introspective  and  rational wisdom .
