Bhagavad Gita 1.27
श्वशुरान्सुहृदश्चैव सेनयोरुभयोरपि। तान्समीक्ष्य स कौन्तेयः सर्वान्बन्धूनवस्थितान्॥
tān samīkṣhya sa kaunteyaḥ sarvān bandhūn avasthitān kṛipayā parayāviṣhṭo viṣhīdann idam abravīt
Translation
Fathers-in-law and benefactors also in both armies; seeing all these kinsmen thus standing arrayed, Kaunteya,
What it means
He sees fathers-in-law and benefactors too, on both sides. Every bond of gratitude and kinship is present on the field. The verse piles up relationships until the idea of a clean victory becomes impossible.
Try this today
Narrative verse; completes the panorama of relationships on both sides.
Something to reflect on
Can I name a clean win in a conflict where everyone involved is connected to me?
