Spiegazione
Krishna draws the consequence of knowing the self as indestructible, eternal, unborn and unchanging. For one who truly knows this, the question of who kills whom loses its usual meaning. The verse is phrased as a question, how could such a person kill or cause killing, which invites Arjuna to examine his own assumptions. Commentators across traditions have noted that the verse speaks of the knower's understanding, and it is not a licence for harm; the Gita grounds action in duty and selflessness elsewhere.
