Cristiano Buril
This podcast aims to show the eighteen chapters of the scripture as presented by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada as part of the ongoing English practice program imparted by Cristiano Buril at Harpia English.
Arjuna submits to Lord Krsna as His disciple, and Krsna begins His teachings to Arjuna by explaining the fundamental distinction between the temporary material body and the eternal spiritual soul. The Lord explains the process of transmigration, the nature of selfless service to the Supreme and the characteristics of a self-realized person.
As the opposing armies stand poised for battle, Arjuna, the mighty warrior, sees his intimate relatives, teachers and friendsin both armies ready to fight and sacrifice their lives. Overcome by grief and pity, Arjuna fails in strenght, his mind becomes bewildered, and he gives up his determination to fight.
