Replica of Geeta - Anugeeta

                                  Replica of Geeta - Anugeeta

This incident happened after the Kurukshetra war. Now Yudhistira is crowned as King. Bheeshma had given Pandavas a true knowledge about administration. Evrything were going right. That time, Arjuna came near Krishna and asked him to tell Geeta which he had told in the battle field and it helped Arjuna to overcome his anxiety. Listening to the request, Krishna was furious.
Krishna told Arjuna that Geeta is not a fiction that can be read as time pass work. Geeta has to be felt within oneself. Arjuna then replied that he has forgotten exactly what Krishna said in battle field. This agitated Krishna even more. He told Arjuna that before telling him Geeta, Krishna had asked Arjuna to remember it completely. But now Arjuna is saying that he has forgotten all .
But as Arjuna begged mercy for his foolishness near Krishna, it is believed that finally Krishna told Geeta to Arguna once again. It is called "Anu-geeta ",

    see below from Wiki:
    The Anugita is part of the Asvamedhikaparva a book of the Sanskrit epic Mahabharata. It contains Krishna's conversation with Arjuna when Krishna decided to return to Dwaraka after restoring to the Pandavas, their kingdom. The main topics discussed are transmigration of souls, means of attaining liberation, description of gunas and ashramas, dharma, and the effects of tapas or austerity.
