Commentary
It is a special feature in Hindu tradition that everyactionshouldbe
donewiththeDharmainforefront.Thisiswhyeventheactionsuch
asa terrible war was arranged ina holy placeso thatall who diein
thewarwillgetthemeritofdoingagooddeed.
From God's viewpoint there is no distinction ofmine and your. The

whole universe is made of five great elements. Everyone is given
the samefreedom tousespace,wind, fire, waterandtheearth.But
the human being compelled by ignorance makes divisions such as
these people, village, province,country, space, wateretc.aremine
and those are yours. All quarrelsand fights are createddueto the
idea of mine and your.SoisthecasewithMahabhartawarthatwas

started by Dhritrashtra with this sense of mine (my sons) and

two armies, in front of Bhisma, Drona, and all the kings, said O
Partha(thesonofPratha,Kunti),beholdalltheseKurus,assembled
here.
Comment:
Lord Krishna, by saying Behold all these Kurus (instead of saying
only Dhartarastran) assembled here had adeep insight. By seeing
all as part of one clan, Arjuna may develop kinship (delusion or
moha) towards them. This kinship may lead to attachment and
make him inquisitive for the Divine message. Thus by making
Arjuna asaninstrument,LordKrishnawantstopreachthegospelof
Gita for destroying Arjunas delusion on the outset and have the
Divine message of Gita serve as a benediction for the creatures of
Kaliage.
