And who is the upamana (object of comparison)? We want those three things clarified. Who is the upameya and who is the upamana? And what is the common attribute between them? A comparison has been made, right? The upama figure of speech has been used, right? Actually, it is called a drashtant (exemplification) figure of speech, but upama is also there.

Tap to open in glossary → It cannot be said that it is definitely good. Why? Wherever good people go, is that not good? The side with which Bhishma Pitamah aligns, and the side with which Dronacharyaji Maharaj aligns, the guru guru A teacher. He will guide you on the path of kalyãn. Tap to open in glossary → If everyone is good, then it is considered good. Huh? If everyone on that side is good, then it is considered good. Where can one find 100% good people, brother? That cannot be found in any single person. But shouldn't the majority be good? So, the majority was there. The leader himself... 'Let Bhishma protect us all,' and so on. Bhishma Pitamah was the leader, wasn't he? And he was good. So, the leadership of the good and the leadership of the weak, you have heard of that, right? That 100 sheep and one lion, and 100 lions and one sheep, but as a leader. An army of 100 lions and its leader is one sheep, and an army of 100 sheep and the leader is one lion, so who wins between the two? Huh? The one where the leader is a lion. Even if there are 100 sheep behind him? So, that lion says that we all have to roar, so the sheep bleat 'baa' all at once. And the lion roars along with them. So, what happens to the opponent? 'Oh my, 100 lions are roaring.' And if that sheep is the leader, it says that you all have to make a sound with me. So, if the sheep bleats 'baa' and those lions all do it, what will those others say? They will only hear that bleating. So, who wins? The lion. Then what if it is Bhishma Pitamah? I am telling you. For that team, the leader... they were lions, right? Duryodhan was doing it. Was Duryodhan a lion? Duryodhan can hardly be called a lion, he ran away. Where did Bhishma Pitamah run away? He lay down on the battlefield. Pierced by arrows. So, he is the one who is called a lion, right? Duryodhan can hardly be called a lion. What do you say, brother? His own intelligence was attached to one place, not attachment but it had become attached. So, we have to infer, it is about a third party in this. What is it? Let Duryodhan and him, let both of them fight. Let us... let Bhishma Pitamah and those two fight. Keep them fighting, then we will watch them fight as long as they do, otherwise we won't vote for them. If we want to deduce something and they all stop fighting, then what happens to us? So, keep them fighting. But the third party thinks that the side which has Bhishma Pitamah on its side, the side which has Dronacharya on its side, the side which has Krupacharya on its side, all of these were grand figures and good men. So, would the side they are on be good or weak? Huh? Sadgun Swami, speak up. Would it be good or weak? Huh? Where great men, great men go to seek advice? Lord Shri Krishna Krishna 1) An avatãr of Bhagvãn. He incarnated in the svarup of a cowherd. This is considered to be a greater avatãr than the others, as Shree Krishna possessed all of the powers of Bhagvãn, whereas other avatãrs possessed less power. Shree Krishna conveyed the message of love and humanity to the world. Also, He recited the epic poem, the Bhagvad Geetã, to Arjun in which He stated: ‘Whenever dharma declines and adharma increases, I shall incarnate myself as a human to save the holy, to destroy the sin of the sinner, and to establish dharma. I come into being from yug to yug’. 2) In the Vachanãmrut, Shreeji Mahãrãj also uses the name “Shree Krishna” to describe Bhagvãn Purushottam Nãrãyan. Tap to open in glossary → What, brother, what do you say? It cannot be said that it is definitely good. Then why did the 11 Akshauhini army gather on that side, and why did only seven remain on the other side? It looks good from the outside. Huh? Generally, it looks good when seen from the outside. Yes. But if one has thought with one's own intelligence, with one's own intelligence once... So, we apply our intelligence to it, we apply the best possible intelligence. I applied a lot of it, thinking that where there are so many great men, whom people follow, they must be good. We applied it. From whose side are you applying it?
