1.01 Bhagavad Gita Shlok 1.1 | Dhritarashtra’s First Question on the Battlefield of Kurukshetra
## English Description Bhagavad Gita Chapter 1 begins with the blind king Dhritarashtra asking Sanjaya what happened on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. The Pandavas and Kauravas have gathered for the great war, but Dhritarashtra’s question reveals more than curiosity. His words show attachment, fear, and partiality toward his own sons. This first shlok sets the emotional and psychological foundation of the Bhagavad Gita. It reminds us that many conflicts begin not outside, but inside the human mind — through attachment, fear, ego, and wrong judgment.
