Without faith in dharma,men fail to reach me,Arjuna;they return to the cycle of death and rebirth.
Despite Krishna's advice,Arjuna holds back at a crucial moment of the battle.The day is saved when Krishna jumps into the fray and sends his spinning chakra,a flat disk with a razor-sharp edge,slicing through the advancing army of the Kauravas.The poem ends with the words:
Where Krishna is lord of discipline and Arjuna is the archer,there do fortune,victory,abundance,and morality exist,so I think.
The Mahabharata is an exciting narative,a beautiful poem,and an important source of religious teaching.But it is also a historical document that tells us a lot about the Vedic communities at the end of the Vedic Era.For example,in the final battle,the warriors ride in magnificent chariots covered with gold and gems,with tinkling bells and iron-rimmed wheels,calling each other to battle with trumpets made of conch shells.“Tumult echoed through heaven and earth,”says the Mahabharata.That passage tells us that the Vedic people had horses and chariots,that their artisans knew how to work with iron and gold,and that they had reestablished trade with the coastal villages that collected conch shells.The place names in the poem also remind us that India was being settled along the Ganga and Yamuna River valleys and in the Punjaa.Krishna,for example,was from the city of Mathura,on the Yamuna,while the Kaurava brothers were from the city of Hastinapura,on the Ganga.
