Gandiva speaks

Concept art - Bhargav Patel.

Brahma (Creator)
Shiva
Prajapati
Indra
Soma
Varuna
Arjuna

Can you feel the full weight of our heritage? The callings of duty and action, carved by sacrifices. They call us back to the beginning.

An Artifice conceived by Brahma.
Handed over to Shiva
Passed down to Prajapati
Progressed to the realm of Indra
Harboured by Soma
Succeeded by Varuna
Wielded by the mortal Arjuna.

Gandiva Speaks

Rising from the perils of Rannbhoomi
that fluctuates on the essence of Rta
The mighty bearer of Gandiva
His duty paramounts the threefold nature
of worldly affairs. 1.1

The sleepwalking populace on Earth
draped in a veil of darkness
lays extinguished with the opulence of the rising sun
Such is the strength that endures
the bearer of Gandiva into action. 1.2

As the great storms churn
the colossus oceans
Such is the concurrence of the Gandiva Dhari
Leaving for once, the trampling gauches baffled,
only to live eternally as a
tale of champions. 1.3

Recognising the duty
and hallowing forward in the chariot of Agni
With gems of Sri Krishna's touch
where the flag of the Maruti flutters
bursting into chants of righteousness
exterminating the Dasayu in humble submission. 1.4

From obviousness of it to obliviousness of it
The absolution of their karma.
shudders the mclecchas
at the sight of bearer of Gandiva taking aim. 1.5

The votary's path of propitiation is
trodden on ceaselessly by the bearer of Gandiva
Thus rumbling with a roar
that stirs the three worlds into attention. 1.6

About Gandiva Speaks

A divine reward is foremost earned, no man may have the gift of Devas for simply wanting them. It is therefore becomes ardently important to recognise the paradigm of code and conduct which is presented in the The war consciousness series of Not Just an Opinion. This is an invitation of Dharma to shift your allegiance from the activities of your mind to the eternal presence of your being .

Gandhiva speaks is a short repository of the war consciousness series. It presents an injunction of the illustrious manifestation of the cosmic order, outside of the societal framework, into the dharmic ethos that spawns from the greatest war of Dwapar Yuga in Kurukshetra which was fought between the Pandvas and Kauravas.
