The first chapter of the Bhagavad Gītā is more beautifully called the "Arjuna Gītā" than the "Kṛṣṇa Gītā". Overpowered by grief and moha, Arjuna laid aside his missiles and weapons and turned away from the war. Seated on the chariot, stationed between the two armies, he gazed steadily this way and that, at both sides, and surveyed all who were his own. Great pity took hold of him. Grieving, he let the Gāṇḍīva slip from his hand; he had no strength left to stand; his mind was in turmoil; he began explaining dharma, karma and the rest, as the Pūrva Mīmāṃsā śāstra sets them out; and then, saying "I will not fight", he fell silent. As soon as Sañjaya told this news to Dhṛtarāṣṭra, the blind king, that king of Ajñāna rejoiced somewhat. He thought the trouble of the war, which stirs up hope, was over. Poor Dhṛtarāṣṭra, who had neither foresight nor divine sight, rejoiced that what he wanted had been done without any effort at all.
