नवानि गृह्णाति नरोऽपराणि ।

न्यन्यानि संयाति नवानि देही ॥

คำอธิบาย

This is the Gita's best known image for rebirth. As a person sets aside worn-out clothes and puts on new ones, the embodied one (dehin) leaves worn-out bodies and takes on new ones. The image is homely and easy to grasp, and it turns death from an ending into a change of covering. For Arjuna the point is emotional as well as logical: the elders he fears to kill are not destroyed but pass on. The verse prepares the series of descriptions that follow about what cannot be harmed.
