Bhagavad-Gita :
Just before the epic battle at Kurukshetra Arjuna is struck with remorse at the thought of regaining his kingdom by
killing his kin. He tells Krishna, his charioteer, he cannot fight. Krishna's advice and
guidance to Arjuna about doing his duty constitute the text of the Bhagavad-Gita.

Mahabharatha :
Ganesha, the elephant-headed god, is believed to have written the MAHABHARATHA to
sage Veda Vyasa's dictation on condition that his pen never stop moving. Sage Vyasa
agreed but specified that Ganesha would only write down the verse after understanding it
completely. So whenever Ganesha paused to consider the verses, Vyasa would use the time to
compose some more verses.

Krishna Leela :
On account of Krishna's persuasion, the villagers had stopped worshipping the gods.
Enraged, the gods showered them with torrential rain for 10 days. They appealed to
Krishna to save them. And he lifted Mount Govardhana as an umbrella to rescue the entire
village. Such similar short episodes form the delightful Krishna Leela. Krishna was the
eighth incarnation of Vishnu. He brought about the doom of the demon king,
Kamsa.
