Reader: “Hey Krishna, What’s This Verse About Anyway?”
Krishna (with a warm smile): “Ah, a curious one, aren’t you? I like that! Well, Chapter 4, Verse 3 of the Bhagavad Gita goes like this:
Sa evāyaṁ mayā te ’dya yogaḥ proktaḥ purātanaḥ
Bhakto ’si me sakhā ceti rahasyaṁ hyetad uttamam
Which means: “The same ancient yoga has been taught to you by Me today because you are My devotee and My friend; this is a supreme secret indeed.”

Reader: “Okay, But…Why Arjuna? Why Not Bhima or Nakula or… Me?”
Krishna (chuckling): “Ah, you’re thinking ahead! Well, let’s break it down. Arjuna was chosen because:
- Devotion & Friendship: Arjuna was devoted to me and genuinely cared—just like a true friend who can handle the truth, even when it’s tough.
- Right State of Mind: He was confused, questioning life’s purpose—basically, having an existential crisis in the middle of a battlefield! Perfect timing, right?
- Desire for Truth: He wasn’t looking for shortcuts or comforting lies. He wanted the real deal, even if it was a hard pill to swallow.
- Ready to Listen: Most people listen to respond, not to understand. But Arjuna was genuinely seeking guidance.
Honestly, anyone who meets these qualities could receive this wisdom—even you!”
Reader: “So, What Does This Mean for Us Common Folk?”
Krishna (with a gentle smile): “Ah, my friend, the Gita isn’t just for warriors or kings. Its wisdom is for everyone! Here’s how you can apply it in your life:
- Stay Devoted to Your Purpose: You don’t need to be in a battlefield to live a life of purpose. Whether you’re an artist, engineer, parent, or student—do your duty with dedication.
- Seek Truth, Not Comfort: Be like Arjuna—ask questions and face life’s challenges head-on. Don’t run away from tough situations.
- Friendship & Humility Matter: Build genuine relationships and approach life humbly. Even the greatest wisdom needs an open heart to enter.
- Guidance Will Come When You’re Ready: The answers you seek often come when you truly need them. Stay patient and keep seeking.
See? The Gita’s wisdom fits even in a modern, busy life.”

- Focus on Universal Values: Love, devotion, selflessness, inner peace—these values are in all faiths. Embrace them.

No monopoly on wisdom here, my friend. Truth is for everyone!”
