Explication

Krishna lays out the plan of his teaching. He will explain, briefly, what the field is, what its nature is, how it changes, where it comes from, and who the knower is and what powers belong to it. The verse works like a table of contents. Its careful questions show that the teaching here aims at clarity of analysis. Arjuna has seen the cosmic form and heard of devotion; now he is invited to examine his own experience closely, separating the changing contents of body and mind from the awareness in which they appear.
