Penjelasan

A second comparison follows, darker than the first. The worlds rush into Krishna's mouths as moths fly at full speed into a flame and perish. The rivers of the previous verse flowed by nature; the moths are drawn by attraction to the very thing that destroys them. Some readers see here an image of beings driven by desire and delusion toward their own end, as the warriors are driven toward the battle. The two images together hold both sides of mortality: the natural return to the source and the blind rush toward ruin.
