Krishna as charioteer from "summary" of Mahabharat Ki Kahaniyan by Harish Sharma

In the great epic Mahabharat, we find a significant event where Lord Krishna takes on the role of a charioteer for Arjuna, one of the Pandava brothers. This momentous occasion occurs on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, where the Pandavas and Kauravas are poised for battle. As the two armies stand ready to engage in a fierce war, Arjuna is filled with doubt and confusion about fighting against his own relatives, teachers, and friends. He is torn between his duty as a warrior and his love for his family members. In this moment of crisis, Arjuna turns to Lord Krishna for guidance and support. Krishna, who is not only a divine being but also a close friend and well-wisher of the Pandavas, offers Arjuna spiritual wisdom and practical advice. He helps Arjuna see beyond the immediate conflict and understand the deeper truths of life, duty, and righteousness. Through his teachings in the form of the Bhagavad Gita, Krishna enlightens Arjuna about the nature of the self, the concept of duty (dharma), and the path to spiritual liberation. He urges Arjuna to fulfill his responsibilities as a warrior and fight for justice without being attached to the outcomes of his actions. Krishna's role as a charioteer symbolizes his support and guidance for Arjuna in navigating the challenges of life and fulfilling his destiny. By driving Arjuna's chariot on the battlefield, Krishna not only provides physical assistance but also serves as a moral compass, leading Arjuna towards the right path.
  1. The concept of Krishna as a charioteer represents the idea of divine intervention in human affairs, the relationship between the individual soul and the Supreme Soul, and the importance of seeking higher knowledge and wisdom to overcome life's challenges. Through his teachings and actions, Krishna guides Arjuna towards self-realization and spiritual enlightenment.
