Explicación

Krishna offers a vivid image. When the mind follows the wandering senses, it carries away one's wisdom just as the wind drives a boat off course on the water. A boat without a firm hand at the helm is at the mercy of the wind. In the same way, a mind that gives in to every pull of the senses loses its direction. The image fits Arjuna, who has been swept away by emotion, and every reader who has felt the mind drift.
