Has this that I have told been heard by you, taken in by listening, Partha, with a one-pointed mind, with attentive thought, that is, without heedlessness? Has the delusion born of ignorance, the delusion that is want of discernment, natural to you, on whose account this toil of yours in listening to the scripture, and My toil in teaching, was undertaken, has it perished, Dhananjaya? Arjuna said.
