Bhagavad Gita - Volume 2 By Acharya Prashant Quotes Showing 1-1 of 1
“repeatedly evoked: “Arjuna, you are a Kshatriya and the Kshatriya must fight.” Now both the things are at play here: dharma and swadharma. In what does dharma lie? Dharma lies in fighting Duryodhana. In what does swadharma lie? Swadharma lies in fighting Duryodhana like a Kshatriya. Let’s say, if a Brahmin was present at the battlefield, dharma would remain the same for Arjuna and that Brahmin. Dharma is to fight Duryodhana because Duryodhana is representing adharma. So, dharma is to fight Duryodhana, but swadharma will be different. Arjuna’s swadharma will be to fight Duryodhana like a warrior, and the Brahmin's swadharma will be to fight Duryodhana like a scholar. So, dharma is the same for everybody, but swadharma varies according to the kind of personality you have taken. According to your physical, social, temporal conditions, swadharma”
