Oh yee of little faith, does it not say in the Gita, "To protect the righteous and destroy the wicked,....I (the Divine)take birth age after age", Gita Ch4vs8. You have an ego my friend, from which you think the whole securtiy of the world depends...such hubris, tut, tut! > In which case the only Good Arjuna would be the adharmic and ungodly Arjuna. The Bhagavad Gita was a goodd story but it doesn't work in real life situations. All it does is reaffirms some vague concept of dharma. Most people don't have the foggiest notion of what dharma even is and so as such, have no notion of what they should do in any circumstance one way or another. Such is the nature of the gunas.... > > I could counter every single paragraph of the Gita with a more rational way of doing things. And that's just stupid me. Agreed! >What of smarter people?
