Explicación

Krishna now compares the yogi with others. The yogi is greater than ascetics who practise bodily austerity, greater than those learned in scripture, and greater than those devoted to ritual works. Therefore Arjuna should become a yogi. Each of these groups may possess one valuable element, but the yogi integrates discipline, understanding and action in a direct pursuit of the goal. The verse is the chapter's practical call to Arjuna, and it prepares for the final verse, which names the best yogi of all.
