Spiegazione
Krishna closes the chapter with a warning. Whatever is offered, given or done, and whatever austerity is practised without faith (śraddhā), is called Asat, unreal or worthless. It bears no fruit either after death or in this life. This answers Arjuna's opening question from another angle: faith decides the value of practice. Ritual correctness without faith is empty, and faith shaped by sattva gives practice its worth. The chapter thus ends where it began, with the central role of faith.
