Paliwanag

Arjuna supports his argument by appeal to what he has heard, the received teaching of elders and texts. Those whose family duties are destroyed, he says, are said to live in hell indefinitely. The phrase we have heard shows that he is relying on tradition rather than on his own insight. This becomes significant later, when Krishna will contrast received opinion with direct understanding. Here Arjuna gathers every authority he can, personal, social and scriptural, to justify the refusal his heart has already made.
