Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 1: Arjuna's Despair
Bhagavad Gita 1.26
तत्रापश्यत्स्थितान्पार्थः पितॄनथ पितामहान् ।
आचार्यान्मातुलान्भ्रातॄन्पुत्रान्पौत्रान्सखींस्तथा ॥
tatrāpaśyatsthitānpārthaḥ pitṝnatha pitāmahān | ācāryānmātulānbhrātṝnputrānpautrānsakhīṃstathā ||
There Arjuna saw fathers and grandfathers standing, teachers, maternal uncles, brothers, sons, grandsons, and friends,
Modern context
A moment ago Arjuna saw 'those who want to fight'. Now he sees fathers, teachers, brothers, sons, friends. Nothing on the field has changed; only the words he sees it through. How we name people decides what we feel able to do to them.
