Of this, I am certain. The  Bhagavad Gita  concludes with this verse delivering a deep pronouncement. Dhritarashtra was apprehensive of the outcome of the war.

In many Eastern spiritual traditions, the soul is likened to a spark that has the same quality as the flame but is infinitesimally small in comparison. Although the spark is of the same nature as the fire, it does not have the same magnitude of energy and potency. Similarly, the soul shares many divine characteristics with the Supreme, including consciousness, bliss, and eternality, but is limited in quantity and capacity. This helps expl...
