Spiegazione

Krishna now explains austerity (tapas) in three forms: of body, speech and mind. Austerity of the body includes honouring the gods, the twice-born, teachers and the wise; purity; straightforwardness; continence (brahmacarya); and non-violence (ahiṃsā). This is a gentle and ethical idea of austerity, very different from the harsh self-torment criticised earlier in the chapter. Discipline of the body here means respectful, clean and harmless living rather than punishing the flesh.
