न रूपमस्येह तथोपलभ्यते

नान्तो न चादिर्न च सम्प्रतिष्ठा ।

अश्वत्थमेनं सुविरूढमूलं

असङ्गशस्त्रेण दृढेन छित्त्वा ॥

الشرح

Krishna admits that from inside the tree its full shape cannot be seen: no one can find where it starts, where it ends or what it rests on. That is why the response he recommends is practical rather than theoretical. The tree is to be cut down with a strong axe, and the axe is non-attachment (asaṅga). The sentence runs on into the next verse, so the cutting is only the first step. The image asks Arjuna to loosen his grip on the world rather than first to explain it completely.
