The idea
The Bhagavad Gita begins with a young man frozen by a hard choice. Arjuna is skilled and brave, but he cannot decide — and he says so honestly. Most of us meet our own version of that moment: a job or a degree, a city or a family, a relationship, money.
Duvidha (Hindi for "dilemma") walks you through five days of reflection. Each day, one verse is applied to your situation, with a question to answer and a small action to try. It never tells you what to choose. Like Krishna in verse 18.63, it hands the decision back to you — clearer.
Who built it
Duvidha was built by Kunal Rustagi, a student at Masters' Union, to help young people think through hard decisions with the Gita — in simple, modern language, open to everyone whatever their background or beliefs.
