Swami Krishnananda. Post-34 ================================================================================ For instance, the whole of humanity was reflected in Arjuna. He was moderate and was considered by Sri Krishna as the best medium for the reception of the highest integrating knowledge. He was not an extreme like Bhima or Yudhisthira. Yudhisthira was an excessively virtuous man, virtue gone beyond limit, whereas Bhima was the opposite. Any extreme is not the law of nature.
