Uitleg
Krishna states the principle behind the social discussion: each person attains perfection (saṃsiddhi) by being devoted to his own work. He then promises to explain how this happens. The verse is a strong affirmation of ordinary duty. Perfection does not require leaving one's place in life for some special religious calling. It can be reached through faithful, wholehearted engagement in the work that suits one's nature.
