In this episode, we explore the divine vision account from the Bhagavad Gita. After a long collection of extremely dense spiritual teachings, finally Arjuna asks his friend Krishna to see his ultimate form as the Lord of the Universe. Throughout the Bhagavad Gita (The Song of God), Krishna reveals to Arjuna, a warrior, the true meaning and purpose of his existence - to know and be united with Krishna. Although the battlefield is a backdrop, the true subject of the Gita is the war within, israel, the true jihad. As such the dialogue between Arjuna and Krishna is not so much an external one but an internal one concerning the supreme science, the brahmavidya which is the knowledge of self. It is a conversation between our egoic human personality always full of questions, and our deepest self, which is Divine.
