The greatest archer alive raised his bow. Then he saw who he was aiming at.

“The bow was ready. The archer wasn't.”

Arjun asked to see the enemy. He didn't know he was looking at his own family.
Let me see them — these men who stand here eager for war. With whom must I fight? He still thought it was a question about strategy.

— Krishna
