Uitleg

Krishna adds three more descriptions: the self is unmanifest (avyakta), beyond thought (acintya) and unchanging (avikārya). It cannot be seen as objects are seen, nor grasped as ideas are grasped. Having laid out this picture, Krishna concludes that Arjuna has no reason to grieve. This closes the first line of argument, which rests on the nature of the self. In the next verses Krishna changes approach and argues that grief is unjustified even on a more ordinary view.
