What is action? What is inaction? As to this even the wise are confused. Therefore I shall teach thee such action (the nature of action and inaction) by knowing which thou shalt be liberated from the evil (of Samsara, the wheel of birth and death).

Explicação
Krishna admits that the question he is addressing is genuinely difficult. Even kavis, poets and sages, are confused about what counts as action and what as inaction. It is not obvious, for example, whether sitting in meditation is inaction or whether fighting a battle without desire is action in the binding sense. Krishna promises to explain, and says this knowledge will free Arjuna from aśubha, what is inauspicious or harmful. The verse opens a dense and important section on the nature of action.
