Response to The First Teaching of Bhagavad Gita

The first teaching talked about war, the desire to be savage, and the conscience that thinks logically and stops your wild nature. In this first passage, we were able to clearly see what makes our society in order; all the laws and rules that tangle us up; the duty or responsibility as a citizen that we are given; the consciousness of our own reputation. We can see this from page 28, “When the family is ruined, the timeless laws of family duty perish; and when duty is lost, chaos overwhelms the family.” And from page 29, “This discord drags the violators and the family itself to hell; for ancestors fall when rites of offering rice and water lapse.”
These factors are still used successfully in our modern society. However, it seems that this chains that keep us from doing what ever we want, is somehow choking us. I have the impression that they are like a double-edged sword. It is helping kill or destroy our enemy, but also giving the same price to ourselves. I wonder if there is anyway we can live together without the frustration due to the chains that we are keeping ourselves form flying away.
