1.42 English Bhagavad Gita Chapter 1 Shlok 42 | War Can Harm Future Generations

In Bhagavad Gita Chapter 1, Shlok 42, Arjuna says that the breakdown of family order brings suffering to those who destroy the family and to the entire family line. Traditional duties performed in memory of ancestors may also disappear. Arjuna does not see the effects of war as limited to the present. He believes that the destruction will affect ancestors, living families, and future generations.
