Bhagavad Gita - Chapter 2 - Samkhya Yoga - Sloka 6


The entire content of this mail is from Swami Chidbhavananda's translation of  The Bhagavad Gita, published by Ramakrishna Mission.


Arjuna declines to fight against the revered ones - slokas 4-6


Chapter 2 - Samkhya Yoga - Sloka 6





Na cha etat vidhyah katrat nah gariyah yad va jayem yadi va nah jayeyuh I


yaan eva hatva na jijivishamah te ava sthitah pramukhe dhartharashtrah II sloka 6


न च एतत् विद्यः katrat नः गरीयः यद् वा जयेम यदि वा नः जयेयु ।


यान एव हत्वा न जिजीविषामः ते अव स्थिताः प्रमुखे धार्तराष्ट्राः ।। श्लोक 6





Whether we should conquer them or they should conquer us - I dont know which would be better. These very sons of Dhritharashtra stand before us. after slaying whom we should not care to live.
