a turn for the betterment and the man is
transformed from a sinner to a devotee. Lord
Krishna's discourse frees Arjuna from his
ignorance, illusion and attachment. Then he
fights the war in order to protect truth, justice,
righteousness and duty. He was in a state of
ignorance and wavering mind, at a loss to
know what to do. As he gained knowledge,
he became active towards realising his duty,
commitment and the aim of life. The
knowledgeable person also performs his duty
and moves ahead towards attaining the goal
of his life. The stage of his life serves as a
model and becomes an inspiring and
fascinating event. Blessed by God, he
achieves the supreme state in his present life
and beyond. This is the simplified version of
Gita's Jnana Yoga.
