Ambidexterity and Bhagavad Gita

Ref: Viswaroopa Darshana Yoga-The Vision of the Universal Form-Bhgavad Gita-Chapter XI- verse 33

I believe that every word has its power

Our ancestors used every word carefully; if at all they used a word, we need a life time to download the intended meaning which may lead to our evolution and learning

Meaning:

Therefore arise and attain fame; by conquering your enemies enjoy a flourishing kingdom;

They have already been killed by me, Oh SAVYASACHIN, you be merely an instrument!

Here our focus of discussion will be SAVYASACHIN—Ambidextrous-

Entrepreneurs who could allocate balanced resources to exploration and exploitation are considered to be ambidextrous—courtesy: SCi Te Press

Above is from entrepreneur’s perspective

Let us look at the traits of an ambidextrous person

Surprisingly two things surprise me; it is the finding that ambidextrous people tend to be more in tune with their physical abilities than their mental ones

Ambidextrous people are more likely to experience a change in their emotions based on their surroundings.

Let us connect; Arjuna is called by Krishna as “ SAVYASACHIN;

So going by the scientific finding Arjuna is expected to exercise his physical skills more than his intellectual skills;

Also we are all aware that Arjuna was so much confused and agitated, that he desired to put down his bow and arrow and wished to quit the battle field;

Now the platform is ready for our conclusion:

Arjuna had physical prowess and Lord Krishna was his consultant, means Arjuna’s brain;

Arjuna being ambidextrous was strong in physical activity-here his archery- and he was equally confused which is his nature due to his ambidexterity.

Okay, we are not challenging the capabilities of ambidextrous people;

Our aim is to see what does this ambidexterity has to do with slaying the enemies when everything is programmed by Krishna; I wish to emphasize that the death of enemies in the hands of Arjuna is pre-planned and destined to happen;

Then why on earth Krishna should be trying so hard to make Arjuna fight?

Yes, we are there!

It is all about experiences and lessons out of experiences, which can happen to anyone with an attitude to learn!

Krishhna wanted Arjuna to undergo this experience of war, and derive appropriate lessons resulting in the elevation of Arjuna’s soul!

So Krishna plays the role of a brilliant teacher and making his love Arjuna undergo the test and wishes Arjuna’s success in this test with His guidance!

Oh my God! We have so much to derive from these things!

I do not know if my this life time is sufficient to even get to know these treasures, leave alone unraveling and learning from them

Will see in another episode

Keep learning! Keep teaching!
