Bhagavad Gita Chapter 1, Verse 21

अर्जुन उवाच | सेनयोरुभयोर्मध्ये रथं स्थापय मेऽच्युत | यावदेतान्निरीक्षेऽहं योद्धुकामानवस्थितान् ||

arjuna uvāca senayor ubhayor madhye rathaṁ sthāpaya me 'cyuta yāvad etān nirīkṣe 'haṁ yoddhu-kāmān avasthitān

Arjuna said: O Krishna, place my chariot between the two armies, so that I may see these warriors arrayed here, ready to fight.

Arjuna takes his first active step, calling Krishna 'Acyuta' (the infallible one) and asking him to position the chariot between both armies. His warrior instinct is alive, but notice his approach: he wants to observe (nirīkṣe) those who are ready to fight. He is not charging in blindly — he is pausing to see clearly before he commits. This teaches us that true strength begins with conscious assessment. Before any major decision, position yourself where you can see the full picture.
