Explication
Sattvic understanding knows when to engage in action and when to withdraw, what should be done and what should not, what is to be feared and what is not, and what binds and what liberates. This is discernment in its fullest form. It is practical as well as spiritual, guiding both daily conduct and the highest goal. The verse names exactly the clarity Arjuna lacked when he could not tell whether to fight, and which the dialogue has been trying to restore.
