Uitleg

Krishna names what must be watched within nature. Each sense has rāga, attraction, and dveṣa, aversion, toward its objects. These reactions arise naturally, but one should not fall under their control, for they are paripanthin, robbers lying in wait on the road. The verse refines the previous one. Nature cannot be crushed, yet one need not be ruled by its pulls and pushes. The task is to act according to one's nature while refusing to be driven by liking and disliking, which distort judgement.
