He wonders if he should renounce, and seeks KrishnaâÇÖs counsel, whose answers and discourse constitute TheáBhagavad Gita. Krishna counsels Arjuna to fulfill hisáKshatriyaá(warrior) duty to uphold theáDharma through 'selfless action.'áThe Krishna-Arjuna dialogue covers a broad range of spiritual topics, touching upon ethical dilemmas and philosophical issues that go far beyond the war Arjuna faces.TheáBhagavad Gitaáis the best known and most famous of Hindu texts,áwith a unique pan-Hindu influence.
