Explicación

Sanjaya closes the chapter with an image. Arjuna, having finished speaking, lets go of his bow and arrows and sits down in the chariot, his mind shaken by sorrow. The bow he raised so confidently earlier in the chapter now lies at his side. Krishna has said almost nothing yet. The chapter ends in silence and collapse, and the rest of the Gita is the response to this moment. It is often called the yoga of Arjuna's despondency, because even this despair becomes the ground from which the teaching grows.
