– Dhrutarashtra asked Sanjaya – After having assembled at the holy Kurukshetra, what are my sons and pandu’s sons are doing?
Arjuna was confused whether to fight or not against his Pithamaha Bheeshmacharyaru, Gurugalu Dronacharyaru, Brothers Duryodanaadigalu, and other elder Kauravas in Kurukshetra. He decided not to fight and asked suggestion of Geethacharya – Srikrishna.
Then Srikrishna gave him Vishnuroopa Darshana and gave a good lecture – Srimadbhagavad Geetha.
