Spiegazione

Krishna concludes this survey with a sweeping statement. No being on earth, or even among the gods in heaven, is free from the three qualities born of nature (prakṛti). Everything in the manifest world is shaped by sattva, rajas and tamas in some mix. The verse explains why the analysis matters for everyone, and prepares for the discussion of social duties that follows, where these qualities are said to shape the different kinds of work people do.
