[ BHAGAVAD GITA · 1.47 · spoken by Arjun ]

47 verses. 47 days. One man raised a bow — then he saw who he was aiming at.

Chapter 1 — Arjun Vishad Yoga — complete. A montage of every beat: the blind king's question, the prince's panic, the shankhas, the bow raised, the names recognised, the body breaking, the Gandiva slipping, the bow dropped, the warrior seated. The Yoga of Arjun's Despondency ends in silence.
