Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 10: The Divine Glories
Bhagavad Gita 10.1
भूय एव महाबाहो शृणु मे परमं वचः ।
यत्तेऽहं प्रीयमाणाय वक्ष्यामि हितकाम्यया ॥
bhūya eva mahābāho śṛṇu me paramaṃ vacaḥ | yatte'haṃ prīyamāṇāya vakṣyāmi hitakāmyayā ||
Hear once more, mighty-armed Arjuna, my supreme word. Because you take delight in it, I will speak it for your good.
Modern context
Krishna gives two reasons for going on: Arjuna takes delight in hearing, and Krishna wants his good. A good teacher responds to a student's real interest, and teaches for the student's benefit, not to show off. The relationship has warmed. Arjuna is no longer listening out of crisis; he is enjoying it. Learning that brings joy goes deeper and lasts longer than learning forced by fear.
