Penjelasan

The thought begun in the previous verse is completed. If the Kauravas cannot see the harm, Arjuna and his brothers can, and so they should know better than to commit it. Knowledge, he argues, brings responsibility. The appeal to seeing clearly is important, for the whole Gita is concerned with right seeing. Arjuna believes he sees clearly here, and his reasoning is coherent. The teaching that follows will not dismiss his concern for family but will question whether his view of the situation is complete.
