Dread

Dread in the Bhagavad Gita — 2 verses across Chapter 1, including 1.6, 1.19. Sanskrit, Hindi, English. One reel per verse.

v1.6· Duryodhan

Every one of them, he said, is a maharath — a master.

He doesn't dismiss them. He admits: every enemy on that field is a master of war.

When you build your enemies up too big, the fear is the real enemy.

— Krishna
v1.19· Dhritarashtra

The Kauravs used every instrument they had. The Pandavs used names. Who won the sound?

That sound — reverberating through sky and earth — shattered the hearts of Dhritarashtra's sons. The Kauravs made noise. The Pandavs broke hearts.

Noise fills the air. Conviction fills the heart. Only one of them breaks the other.

— Krishna
