Paliwanag

Krishna names the cycle of food, rain, sacrifice and action a wheel, cakra, set turning by the creator. Each person is meant to help keep it moving. One who refuses, living only for sense pleasure, is called aghāyu, one whose life is sin, and is said to live in vain. The verse adds weight to the argument against withdrawal. Arjuna's refusal to act, even if well meant, would be a refusal to play his part in the larger order. Every life is meant to contribute to the whole.
