A conditioned soul is enwrapped in his fruitive activities by the force of eternal time. But the Supreme Lord when He incarnates on the earth, His activities are not enforced by Kala or the material conception of past present and future significances. Such activities of the Lord are eternal and they are a manifestation of His Atmamaya or internal potency. All such pastimes or activities of the Lord are spiritual in nature but to the laymen they appear to be on the same level of material activities. It so appeared that the Arjuna and the Lord were engaged in the battle-field of Kurukshetra as the other party was also engaged: but factually the Lord was executing His mission of incarnation in association with His eternal friend Arjuna. Therefore such apparent material activities of Arjuna did not drive him away from his transcendental position but on the contrary revived his consciousness about the songs of the Lord as He sung it personally. This revival of consciousness is assured by the Lord in the Bhagwat Geeta as follows: (B.G. 18/65)
#dl##dd#Manmana bhava madbhakto madyaji mam namaskuru#/dd#
#dd#Mameva aisyasi satyam te pratijane priosi me.#/dd##/dl#
One should become in the mood of thinking the Lord always and the mind may not be void of His thinking. One should, therefore, become a devotee of the Lord and offer obeisances unto Him. One, who lives in that fashion, becomes undoubtedly endowed with the blessing of the Lord by achieving the shelter of His lotus feet. There is nothing to be doubtful about this eternal truth and because Arjuna was His confidential friend the secret was disclosed to him.
#$p#Arjuna had no desire to fight with his relatives but he fought on the mission of the Lord. He was always engaged in the execution of His mission only and therefore after His departure he remained in the same transcendental position even though it appeared that he forgot all the instructions of the Bhagwat Geeta. One should, therefore, adjust the activities of life in pace with the mission of the Lord and by doing this one is sure to return back to home return back to Godhead the highest perfection of life.
