Giảng giải

Arjuna reaches the end of his reasoning. He would rather be killed, unarmed and offering no resistance, than fight. This is the strongest possible statement of his refusal: not only will he not kill, he would accept death himself. For a warrior, such words are startling. They show that his crisis is not cowardice in the ordinary sense, since he is ready to die. It is a collapse of purpose, a conviction that any action in this war is wrong, and it sets the problem that Krishna's teaching must address.
