This study aims to apply the Flanders Interaction Analysis System (FIAS) to analyze and interpret the dialogues in the Bhagavad Gi?ta?, examining the interaction between K???a and Arjuna to understand the dynamics of their teacher-student relationship. This is a qualitative study employing FIAS to evaluate the conversations in the Bhagavad Gi?ta?, focusing on the socio-emotional climate of the interaction between K???a and Arjuna. The Study was carried out under The University of Burdwan, India during the period from January 2023 to July 2023. Using the FIAS tool, the study quantitatively and qualitatively assesses the verbal interactions between K???a and Arjuna. The analysis categorizes the teacher (K???a) and student's (Arjuna's) verbal behaviors to determine the control dynamics, interaction patterns, and socio-emotional climate of their discourse. The analysis reveals a predominantly teacher-centred approach, with K???a demonstrating high enthusiasm and encouragement, while Arjuna exhibits low participation and initiative. This dynamic reflects a strong teacher influence over the student's behavior and learning process.The interaction between K???a and Arjuna, as analyzed through FIAS, shows a clear dominance of the teacher-centred approach, yet with a supportive and learner-friendly environment. K???a's engagement and facilitation highlight the significant role of the teacher in guiding and encouraging the learner, despite the lower level of student-led participation. This study affirms the crucial impact of teacher behavior on student learning and the overall socio-emotional atmosphere in instructional settings.
