  Verse 12-15 Dharma defines a thing - what it is? Arjuna’s dilemma is related to choosing between the two rights (dharmas) What makes him Chhatriya, is his duty. There are two rights. War is right; killing his relatives is also right. So context matters when we are at a crossroad of choosing between two right paths of dharma. This makes Arjuna’s emotional drain extraordinary. Discussed why Shankaracharya started from Chapter 2/Verse 11. Why Bhagawan uvaca: why Bhagawan? Shri Krishna can be seen as Krishna. Before Gita, Arjuna considers him as a friend. In Bhagavad Gita, Shri Krishna becomes Bhagawan – implies his status as Bhagawan. Verse 15 Bhagavan Shri Krishna blew His Pancajaya. Arjuna blew his Devadatta. Every conch has different vibrations. It affects your prana shakti – identity chakra; it affects in a different way. Each conch represents different meaning based on its association with the respective warriors. The perception of the manifestation changes with conch’s vibrations. Some conchs are blown to improve the morale of our own army. Other conchs are blown to demoralize the opposing armies. Lord Krishna conch will bring you to the war. OM sound starts from manipura chakra and goes towards upward chakras. Pooja conch affects you for shanti. When my prana goes to the shanti; other vibrations related to fear will not affect me. Example: chanting of “vahe guru vahe guru …” affects 7 chakras of a person due to the type of vibrations created. You can chant Soham Soham Soham…..; Both of these have shraddha angle. Instrument (ear) and interpretation by mind together produces. experience; that affects your chakra; example: calm brings shanti. Enlightened state – mind becomes non-existent. Source of vritti is vasana, this is generated by the tendencies left from the past and current life.
