The 5th verse of Gitartha Samgraha (गीतार्थसङ्ग्रहः) by Yamunacharya (यामुनाचार्यः) summarises the chapter one of the Gita.<blockquote>अस्थानस्नेहकार्पण्यधर्माधर्मधियाऽऽकुलम् । पार्थं प्रपन्नमुद्दिश्य शास्त्रावतरणं कृतम् ॥ ५ ॥<ref>[http://www.acharya.org/sloka/alavandar/gsa-skt.pdf Sri Gitartha Samgraha]</ref></blockquote><blockquote>asthānasnehakārpaṇyadharmādharmadhiyā<nowiki>''</nowiki>kulam । pārthaṁ prapannamuddiśya śāstrāvataraṇaṁ kr̥tam ॥ 5 ॥ </blockquote>Meaning: Arjuna saw the dear relatives like Bhima, Acharyas (आचार्य-s | Masters) like Drona assembled opposite him to engage in battle with him.  Arjuna's love and daya (दया । compassion) for them overflowed although they had no fitness for that display of affection.  As a result, Arjuna concluded that the righteous war with them befitting his status as a Kshatriya was adharma (अधर्मः । unrighteous).  He was overcome with weakness.  He threw down his bow and arrows and sat down with dejection at the foot of his chariot. Next, Arjuna appealed to Lord, his charioteer, to show him the right way.  With smile on His face, Lord Parthasarathy (पार्थसारथी । Sri Krishna) commenced His upadesha (उपदेशः । teaching) for Arjuna on Jivatma svarupa (जीवात्मस्वरुपः । the real nature of the embodied soul), of the Paramatma (परमात्मा । Supreme Soul or God), the means to reach Paramatma and related esoteric meanings of Vedanta.  Lord's teaching was like nectar for Arjuna and easy to understand (Gita. Samg. verse 5).<ref>http://www.yogakshemam.net/English/IndianPhilosophy/GitarthaSangraha.html#_Toc174119363</ref>
