Erläuterung

The great chariot-fighters, warriors of the highest rank, would conclude that Arjuna fled out of fear. Those who once held him in high regard would think little of him. Krishna anticipates how Arjuna's motives would be misread. Arjuna believes he is acting from compassion, but others would see only cowardice. The verse highlights the gap between inner intention and outer appearance, a theme the Gita takes up later when it teaches that action should spring from clear understanding rather than from emotional confusion.
