Uitleg

A second kind of true seeing is named. One who sees that every action is carried out wholly by nature, and that the self is akartṛ, not the doer, truly sees. This follows from the earlier teaching that nature is responsible for doing and the person for experiencing. It does not mean that action does not happen or that one should stop acting. It means that the inmost self is not entangled in the doing. For Arjuna, the insight offers a way to act fully as a warrior while knowing that his deepest identity is not bound by the act.
