Resing not allowed. It's a discussion thread. So start questioning already 😛

Is it just an ancient relic?

Gadhi PM toh karti. I will ask my questions tomorrow. I have to compile them all.

P.S. Will the discussion strictly be on mythological and religious in nature or we'll discuss the anthropological and historical progression as well?

And Sru, you didn't update my banner here!

The Gita can never lose its relevance, irrespective of what Yuga we live in.

All that He says, everything, is as relevant today as it was in Dwapar, when He spoke them to Arjuna.

He talks of Dharma and Karma, and as you rightly pointed out, Dharma and Karma converging is where ultimately one should want to be. 

The Gita is relevant every second of life. If you understand the way of Gita, and understand the Gita, you will learn to live life correctly.

Thank you so much for opening this thread Di!

Okay, so what are significance of using certain numbers during religious ceremonies?
Like for an aarti we need to make the circle 3/5/7... times?

Also, why does a number keep repeating itself in the texts?
Like, in MB it's like Krishna is the 8th avatar of Vishnu born as the eighth son, on the eight day of Shravan (Bhadra, in the Bengali calendar)
Then, MB itself has 18 parvas, Geeta has 18 adhyayas and the Battle lasted 18 days.

And also the repetition of 108 in various contexts?

I'd be glad if anyone could help out?
