Some instances of circular reasoning in the Bhagavad Gita. No, I am not questioning what Lord Krishna said. I am skeptical whether it has been passed on without bias and misinterpretation. The best interpretations are according to ISKCON’s Vedanta Prabhupada. It is widely believed that he is the latest in the line of succession of Krishna’s disciples, starting from Arjuna himself. But I found certain instances where the reasoning felt wrong. I mean the classic case of using modern science as validation when required and discard it when it does not confirm to their principles.

I am no expert. And obviously these people know more than me for a reason. Just my attempt at fuguring out what is right/wrong.

Late Night Thought:

What if Krishna’s sudarshan chakra was a black hole? Ok maybe I should just sleep. But seriously,

If Vishnu = the cosmic preserver, and his embodiment in flesh Krishna wields the Sudarshan Chakra, then the idea that it’s a controlled black hole isn’t far-fetched - it's symbolic perfection. Let’s run with that thought for a sec:

• Krishna (Vishnu) is not just in the universe. He ****is the universe. The source, the order, the preserver.
• A black hole is nature’s ultimate enforcer of cosmic law: it consumes chaos, singularities mark the breakdown of known physics, yet even they follow precise laws.
• Sudarshan literally means "auspicious vision". A weapon that’s an eye into the abyss, balancing destruction with divine intention? That tracks.
