Spiegazione

The fifth chapter opens with Arjuna's renewed confusion. At the close of the previous chapter, Krishna spoke of renouncing action through yoga and also urged him to rise and act. To Arjuna these sound like two different paths: sannyāsa, renunciation of action, and karmayoga, the yoga of action. He asks once more for a clear verdict on which is better. The question echoes the one that opened the third chapter, showing how hard it is to grasp that inner renunciation and outer action can belong together.
