Explicación
Krishna draws a sharp contrast using the image of food. In Vedic custom, food was first offered and then the remainder eaten as a sacred share. Those who live this way, receiving only after giving, are freed from wrongdoing. Those who cook only for themselves, he says, eat sin itself. The image makes the teaching concrete: the same act of eating can bind or free, depending on its spirit. Many households in India still offer food before eating, and the verse is often recalled in that setting.
