Arjun is a prominent character in the ancient Indian epic, the Mahabharata. He is one of the five Pandava brothers and is known for his exceptional skills as an archer and warrior. Arjun plays a crucial role in the epic's central conflict, the Kurukshetra War, where he fights against his own relatives and friends. His character embodies the themes of duty, righteousness, and moral dilemmas.
In addition to his martial prowess, Arjun is also a devoted disciple of Lord Krishna, who serves as his charioteer and guide. Their conversations, particularly during the Bhagavad Gita, explore profound philosophical and ethical questions, making Arjun a key figure in discussions about duty and spirituality in Hindu philosophy.
