Spiegazione

Krishna now explains why many people worship other deities. Their understanding is carried away by particular desires, and following particular observances, they turn to the gods suited to those desires, guided by their own nature (prakṛti). The verse describes rather than condemns. People seek what their nature and wishes lead them to seek, and they choose forms of worship accordingly. This prepares for the next verses, in which Krishna says that he himself supports even such faith.
