could do, why do I feel like? saying: "Well, that's too much!"
Like, what is the expectation of our desires when it comes to serving God, (or if you wish to call it: walking more closely a spiritual path, or improving one's self for the greater good)?
this is the closest I can describe this feeling
quote
Deciding to surrender himself to whatever Krishna advised, Arjun said,"O Krishna, I am confused about my duty and have lost all composure due to weakness of heart. Surely I am being consumed by miserly and selfish considerations, but I am not able to overcome them. In this condition I ask you to please tell me what is best for me. Now I am your disciple and a soul surrendered unto you. Please instruct me. I can see no means to drive away this grief. Even winning a prosperious kingdom equal to that of the gods will not assuage my sorrow. O Govinda, I will not fight."
