The Gita is profound philosophical knowledge. Arjun's questions and the solutions given by the Blessed Lord have made it easily comprehensible. Even then while studying it, concentration and enquiring attitude are essential! Take this verse, for example:

Even though it has been explained in an easy manner, it will still be necessary to concentrate upon. 'Adhibhutam ch kim proktam'-is the question raised by Arjun. The Blessed Lord answers-'Adhibhutam ksaro bhavah'-all objects which come into existence and are subject to destruction are adhibhuta. The space, fire, water, wind, earth-these Five elements have been called five bhutas. All beings and objects owe their existence to them. The nature which is viewed by the physical eyes, all other living objects are perishable, they come and go, are destructible, ever changing and going towards destruction. Nothing is going to remain ever in the same form, of the same essence and uniform.

'Adhidaivam kimucyate'? What is adhidaiva called? The answer to this question of Arjun needs deep reflection. 'Purusacadhidaivatam'The Being is adhidaiva. Which being?
