ಮೂಲ & ಕಥೆ
Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2, Verse 13 · Spoken by Lord Krishna to Arjuna; recorded by Sage Veda Vyasa in the Mahabharata (Bhishma Parva) · Ancient (part of the Mahabharata, traditionally dated to the Dvapara Yuga)
On the battlefield of Kurukshetra, Arjuna was paralyzed by sorrow at the prospect of fighting and killing his own teachers, elders, and kinsmen. The philosophy of the Gita truly begins here in the second chapter, Sankhya Yoga, where Krishna dispels Arjuna's grief by revealing the true nature of the Self. This verse is among the first and most famous statements of that teaching: the soul is eternal and merely transmigrates from body to body.
