Bhagavad Gita Gist: 18 important slokas (verses) from 18 chapters

By Dr Debasish Saha, India October 28, 2023

The Bhagavad Gita, sacred scripture, a part of the Mahabharata, contains dialogue between Lord Krishna and Pandava Prince Arjuna, providing profound spiritual and management teachings. It addresses the path to self-realization, duty (dharma), and devotion, emphasizing the importance of performing one's duties with detachment and surrender to the divine for attaining inner peace and liberation (moksha) from the cycle of death and rebirth. The teachings of the Bhagavad Gita took place on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, an ancient battlefield in present-day Haryana, India. Kurukshetra is a historically significant location where the great war between the Pandavas (led by Arjuna) and the Kauravas (led by Duryodhana) is set to take place. Let us summarise Bhagavad Gita through 18 most important slokas from 18 chapters. Chapter 1 Chapter 1, Verse 1 “dhṛtarāṣṭra uvāca dharma-kṣetre kuru-kṣetre samavetā yuyutsavaḥ māmakāḥ pāṇḍavāś caiva kim akurvata sañjaya” "Dhritarashtra said: O ...

As per various life events of Arjuna, it was calculated that his age was 89 at the time of Kurukshetra's war (5480 BC). Unlike today, during Dwapara Yuga, life expectancy was 1000 years or more. Hence he was pretty young at the time of war. 2. Srimad Bhagavad Gita is only one historical Sacred text which is in Question and Answer (Q&A) form. Arjuna's questions/ doubts are getting clarified by Lord Krishna. 3. Bhagavad Gita Wisdom at the battlefield.
