Answer Arjuna’s crisis on duty and violence with yoga, bhakti, jñāna, and disciplined action (niṣkāma karma).
The Bhagavad Gita is a dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. Arjuna's collapse is not weakness alone; it is a dharmic crisis in which duty, grief, family, violence, and spiritual freedom collide.
Krishna's answer is not one single technique. The Gita integrates karma yoga, jnana yoga, bhakti yoga, meditation, surrender, and disciplined action, giving later Hindu traditions a shared scripture for practice, philosophy, and daily reflection.
