Educational Q&A
Even after receiving divine counsel, a person may still feel intense grief; the ethical path is clarified through continued dialogue, honest self-examination, and seeking guidance rather than acting from confusion.
Sañjaya narrates that Arjuna, deeply distressed, responds to Kṛṣṇa (called Puruṣottama/Keśava) after being addressed—signaling a renewed exchange at a critical moment in the war narrative.
