Shrimad Bhagavad Gita 1.22,1.23,1.24 and 1.25

यावदेतान्निरीक्षेऽहं योद्धुकामानवस्थितान्।

कैर्मया सह योद्धव्यमस्मिन्रणसमुद्यमे।।1.22।।

1.23 I wish to see those gathered here ready to fight in this battle in order to please the evil-minded son of Dhrtarastra.

योत्स्यमानानवेक्षेऽहं य एतेऽत्र समागताः।

धार्तराष्ट्रस्य दुर्बुद्धेर्युद्धे प्रियचिकीर्षवः।।1.23।।

1.23 These who have assembled here and want to accomplish in the war what is dear to the perverted son of Dhrtarastra, I find them to be intent on fighting.

सञ्जय उवाच

एवमुक्तो हृषीकेशो गुडाकेशेन भारत।

सेनयोरुभयोर्मध्ये स्थापयित्वा रथोत्तमम्।।1.24।।

भीष्मद्रोणप्रमुखतः सर्वेषां च महीक्षिताम्।

उवाच पार्थ पश्यैतान्समवेतान्कुरूनिति।।1.25।।

1.24 1.25 Sanjay said O scion of the line of Bharata (Dhrtararastra), Hrsikesa, being told so by Gudakesa (Arjuna), placed the excellent chariot between the two armies, in front of Bhisma and Drona as also all the rulers of the earth, and said, 'O Partha (Arjuna), see these assempled people of the Kuru dynasty.'

Here comes the most awaited moment of the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita when a despondent Arjun feels hapless and dejected at watching his own kith and kin standing poised to combat him. Watching his teachers and beloved ones standing against him in this splendid battle gnaws Arjun incessantly and this forces him to make this unwonted move in the war. He wants to see the face of every person who was once very dear to him and is now standing in the arena in order to trounce him, he wants to see Pitamah Bhisma, against whose shoulders he would have snuggled when he was a child but is now forced to wrestle with them, he wants to look at Acharya Dhron who carved out a brilliant warrior in Arjuna but is now ready to pierce Arjuna's army with his insurmountable weapons. Arjuna is countenancing a cornucopia of misery which is making his heart bleed tears of dejection, and this is the capstone moment when he will start confabulating with the Lord regarding the apprehensions that are pinioning him from participating in the battle.
