Пояснення

Krishna addresses the two ways of thinking that trouble Arjuna: seeing someone as a killer and seeing someone as killed. Both, he says, misunderstand the self, which neither kills nor is killed. The verse does not claim that bodies are unharmed or that actions have no consequences; later the Gita gives careful attention to how one should act. Its point is that the deepest identity of a person stands outside the event of killing. Arjuna's horror rests on treating the self as something a weapon could reach.
