Chapter 1 · Verse 34
Arjuna Visada Yoga
अर्जुनविषादयोग
In plain words
You are being asked to recognize the painful reality of facing your own family and respected teachers as opponents. When you look closely, you see grandfathers, uncles, and mentors standing against you. This painful sight clouds Arjuna's jnana, or spiritual wisdom, as he struggles to see how his righteous dharma, meaning his duty as a warrior, could ever justify fighting those he loves.
Translation
1.34 Teachers, fathers, sons and also grandfathers, uncles, fathers-in-law and grandsons, brothers-in-law and other kinsmen---
Meaning
