Objaśnienie

Arjuna renounces the goals of the war. He wants neither victory nor kingdom nor comfort, and asks what point there is in rule, enjoyment or even life. On the surface this sounds like detachment, the very quality the Gita will later praise. Yet it springs from grief and shock rather than from insight. Many readers see this as an important distinction the dialogue will draw: turning away from the world in despair is different from acting freely without craving. Arjuna's words here are sincere, but their source is sorrow.
