Penjelasan

Arjuna picks up the closing words of the previous chapter, which made scripture the guide for action. He asks about people who do not follow scripture's rules yet worship sincerely with faith (śraddhā). Where do they stand: in sattva (clarity), rajas (passion) or tamas (inertia)? It is a fair and practical question, since many devout people know little of formal injunctions. The question shows Arjuna now thinking actively about the teaching, and it opens a chapter that classifies faith and religious practice by the three qualities (guṇa).
