Arjuna has got the best opportunity. He's hearing from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He has got the . . . he's so fortunate. He's talking with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, face to face, directly. So our business should be we should follow the footsteps of Arjuna. How to follow the footsteps of Arjuna? As Arjuna understood Bhagavad-gītā, you try to understand in that way. Arjuna accepted Kṛṣṇa the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Paraṁ brahma paraṁ dhāma pavitraṁ paramaṁ bhavān (BG 10.12): "Kṛṣṇa, You are the Supreme Person, Paraṁ Brahman, pavitra, the most pure." So if we, similarly, if we, even if we do not understand Bhagavad-gītā, if we follow that, "Arjuna has understood like this, that Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Brahman, Supreme Personality of Godhead," then you understand everything. This is called paramparā. You don't require to, I mean, to tax your brain, what is Kṛṣṇa. Because now we have got poor intelligence. We cannot do that. But you simply accept what Arjuna says. Then you are perfect. Even I make a . . . I may become a fool number one, but if I accept . . . mahājano yena gataḥ sa panthāh (CC Madhya 17.186). Mahājana, those who are authorities, if you follow the authorities, then you understand.
dharmasya tattvaṁ nihitaṁ guhāyam. It is very difficult to understand what is religion, what is the process of religion. People are very much puzzled. But if we follow the great personalities . . . they are also mentioned in the śāstras: Svayambhu, Śambhu, Kumāra, Kapila, Manu. So if we follow their footsteps . . . just like Arjuna. That, that is, really we understand.
