Srimad Bhagavad-Gita Chapter 1

Srimad Bhagavad-Gita----Srimad Bhagavad-Gitais one of the most important chapters of Mahabharata war,it is a epic song which is sung by Lord Krishna(who is an incarnation of lord Vishnu) According to My religious Guru ,Srimad Bhagavad-Gita is the Nector of Four Vedas(The Rig Veda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda and Atharva Veda.) The war of Mahabharata has begun after all steps to avoid war has been done by Lord Krishna and others . The blind King (Dhritarashtra) was in Dilemma who will be the victorious in spite of their superior army.The arrowgence of kauravas  has won after all negotiations by Lord Krishna and others to avoid it failed.In Spite of their superior army The blind King (Dhritarashtra) was never very sure about the victory of his sons (Kauravas). Sage Vyasa, the author of Mahabharata, wanted to give the blind king the boon of eyesight so that the king could see the horrors of the war for which he was primarily responsible. But the king refused the offer. He did not want to see the horrors of the war; but preferred to get the war report through his charioteer, Sanjaya. Sage Vyasa granted the power of clairvoyance to Sanjaya. With this power Sanjaya could see, hear, and recall the events of the past, present, and the future. He was able to give an instant replay of the eye witness war report to the blind King sitting in the palace.

 The blind King (Dhritarashtra) who was in Dilemma asked: Sanjaya, please now explain me, in details, what did my sons(the Kauravas) and the son of Pandavas do in the battlefield before the war started? Explanation----Accoring to the first Sloka The blind King (Dhritarashtra)stress on one thing (my sons the Kauravas)and and the son of Pandavas.In simple words The blind King (Dhritarashtra) stressed on Mera aur Tera(mine and yours) who is the root cause of all wars now in ,today also,secondly the word( धर्मक्षेत्रे कुरुक्षेत्रे)is spoken by Dhritarashtra by the divine order to clarify the whole world .It is the (धर्मक्षेत्रे) (dharmshetra) not a place of war ,and Dharm ( धर्म)always wins.The Victory belongs to Pandavas and one who dies in धर्मक्षेत्रे wheather ThePandavas or the Kauravas will go to heaven.
