Shloka 1
🌟 Sanskrit:
सञ्जय उवाच |
तं तथा कृपयाविष्टमश्रुपूर्णाकुलेक्षणम् |
विषीदन्तमिदं वाक्यमुवाच मधुसूदनः || 2.1 ||
🌟 Transliteration:
sañjaya uvāca |
taṁ tathā kṛpayāviṣṭam aśru-pūrṇākulekṣaṇam |
viṣīdantam idaṁ vākyam uvāca madhusūdanaḥ ||
🌟 Meaning:
Sanjaya said: To him who was thus overcome with compassion, with his eyes full of tears and bewildered, and who was sorrowing, Madhusudana (Krishna) spoke these words.
🌟 Explanation:
Sanjaya sets the scene for Krishna's first words. He describes Arjuna as completely overwhelmed by pity (kṛpayā), with tear-filled eyes, and lost in sorrow. It is to this utterly dejected soul that Krishna, the slayer of the demon Madhu, begins to offer his divine counsel. 💧
Shloka 2
🌟 Sanskrit:
श्रीभगवानुवाच |
कुतस्त्वा कश्मलमिदं विषमे समुपस्थितम् |
अनार्यजुष्टमस्वर्ग्यमकीर्तिकरमर्जुन || 2.2 ||
🌟 Transliteration:
śrī-bhagavān uvāca |
kutas tvā kaśmalam idaṁ viṣame samupasthitam |
anārya-juṣṭam asvargyam akīrti-karam arjuna ||
🌟 Meaning:
The Supreme Lord said: My dear Arjuna, how has this impurity come upon you? It is not at all befitting a man who knows the value of life. It does not lead to higher planets, but to infamy.
🌟 Explanation:
Krishna finally breaks his silence, not with soft words of sympathy, but with a sharp, almost scolding tone. He calls Arjuna's grief an "impurity" (kaśmalam) that is unworthy of an honorable person (an Ārya). He points out that this weakness is disgraceful, will ruin his reputation (akīrti), and will not lead him to heaven (asvargyam). This is a form of spiritual "shock therapy" to shake Arjuna out of his despair. ⚡
Shloka 3
🌟 Sanskrit:
क्लैब्यं मा स्म गमः पार्थ नैतत्त्वय्युपपद्यते |
क्षुद्रं हृदयदौर्बल्यं त्यक्त्वोत्तिष्ठ परन्तप || 2.3 ||
🌟 Transliteration:
klaibyaṁ mā sma gamaḥ pārtha naitat tvayy upapadyate |
kṣudraṁ hṛdaya-daurbalyaṁ tyaktvottiṣṭha paran-tapa ||
🌟 Meaning:
O son of Pritha, do not yield to this degrading impotence. It does not befit you. Give up such petty weakness of heart and arise, O chastiser of the enemy!
🌟 Explanation:
Krishna's rebuke continues. He directly tells Arjuna not to give in to "impotence" or "unmanliness" (klaibyam). He calls his emotional state a "petty weakness of heart" (kṣudraṁ hṛdaya-daurbalyam) and commands him to cast it aside. By addressing him as "Parantapa" (chastiser of the enemy), Krishna reminds Arjuna of his true nature as a powerful and heroic warrior, urging him to rise and fight. 🔥
Today’s Takeaway
Sometimes, we need a reality check. When we are drowning in self-pity, gentle sympathy may not be what we need. A true friend or guide will sometimes offer a sharp dose of truth to shake us from our stupor and remind us of our inner strength. Don't mistake tough love for a lack of compassion; often, it's the most compassionate act of all. 💪❤️
JAI SHRI KRISHNA💕💖💞💝🙏🙏🙏
