Krishna And The Bhagavad-Gita.

Krishna is the eighth avatar of Vishnu and is thought my most Hindus to be the supreme god. In the epic poem Bhagavad-Gita Arjuna, a Hindu prince, is in a great battle against his cousins over the throne. He is accompanied on the battlefield with his charioteer Krishna. As he scans the enemy's lines he notices several of his family and friends are standing there. He realizes that he will have to kill end up …

…actually the great god Vishnu is like the light of a thousand suns in the sky. As Arjuna looks at him, he sees the entire universe and all the gods, he sees Brahman. He gives him his adoration and worship and then beseeches him to return to the form of Krishnu the charioteer because the image is too much for his mind to contain. Finally, giving his total devotion to Krishnu, Arjuna agrees to fight.
