Bhagavad Gita - Setting The Scene
Although widely published and read by itself, Bhagavad Gita originally appears as an episode in the Mahabharata, the epic Sanskrit of the ancient world. The Mahabharata tells of events leading up to the present age of Kali. It was at the beginning of this age, some fifty centuries ago, that Lord Krsna spoke Bhagavat Gita to his friend and devotee Arjuna.
Their discourse-one of the greatest philosphical and religious dialogues known to man-took place just before the onset of war, a great fratricidal conflict between the hundreds of sons of Dhrtarastra and on the opposing sides their cousins the Pandavas, or sons of Pandu.
Now I will Give you a Idea about all eighteen chapters in Bhagavad Gita.
