Spiegazione

Arjuna concedes that the Kauravas, blinded by greed, cannot see the evil of destroying a family or betraying friends. He does not excuse them; he names their greed directly. But he begins to argue that their blindness does not justify his own. The sentence carries over into the next verse. It is a mature move in his reasoning: one person's wrong does not oblige another to match it. Many readers find this one of Arjuna's most thoughtful points, even though the dialogue will later place it in a wider frame.
