BG 1.12: Then, the grand old man of the Kuru
dynasty, the glorious patriarch Bheeshma, roared
like a lion, and blew his conch shell very loudly,
giving joy to Duryodhan.

Grandsire Bheeshma understood the fear in his
grand-nephew’s heart, and out of his natural
compassion for him, he tried to cheer him by
blowing his conch shell very loudly. Although he
knew that Duryodhan had no chance of victory due
to the presence of the Supreme Lord Shree Krishna
on the other side, Bheeshma still let his nephew
know that he would perform his duty to fight, and no
pains would be spared in this connection. In the
code of war at that time, this was the inauguration of
the battle.

BG 1.14: Then, from amidst the Pandava army,
seated in a glorious chariot drawn by white horses,
Madhav and Arjun blew their Divine conch shells.

Commentary
After the sound from the Kaurava army had
subsided, the Supreme Lord Shree Krishna and
Arjun, seated on a magnificent chariot, intrepidly
blew their conch shells powerfully, igniting the
Pandavas eagerness for battle as well.

Sanjay uses the name “Madhav” for Shree
Krishna. Mā refers to the goddess of
fortune; dhav means husband. Shree Krishna in his
form as Lord Vishnu is the husband of the goddess
of fortune, Lakshmi. The verse indicates that the
grace of the goddess of fortune was on the side of
the Pandavas, and they would soon be victorious in
the war to reclaim the kingdom.

Pandavas means sons of Pandu. Any of the five
brothers may be referred to as Pandava. Here the
word is being used for Arjun. The glorious chariot on
which he was sitting had been gifted to him by Agni,
the celestial god of fire.

Commentary

© Prabir Mishta 28

Arjun was a devotee of Shree Krishna, who is the
Supreme Lord of the entire creation. Yet, in this verse,
Arjun instructed the Lord to drive his chariot in to the
desired place. This reveals the sweetness of God’s
relationship with His devotees. Indebted by their love
for him, the Lord becomes the servant of his
devotees.

ahaṁ bhakta-parādhīno hyasvatantra iva dvija
sādhubhir grasta-hṛidayo bhaktair bhakta-jana-priyaḥ
(Bhāgavatam 9.4.63) [v2]

“Although I am Supremely Independent, yet I
become enslaved by my devotees. They are very
dear to me, and I become indebted to them for their
love.” Obliged by Arjun’s devotion, Shree Krishna
took the position of the chariot driver, while Arjun sat
comfortably on the passenger seat giving him
instructions.
