Krishna says in the Bhagavad Gita that this knowledge was taught to him by the sun god. Krishna then passed it on to Manu, who passed it on to Iksvaku, who passed it on to his disciples. His teachings were lost over the centuries, meaning that Krishna has to explain them again to Arjuna. There are five main topics in the book: the knowledge of God, Jivas, the living entities whose lives are controlled, Prakrti, material nature, time, the duration of the existence of the whole universe and Karma.
