अजुन उवाच
Yoga—understood as disciplined integration of mind, knowledge, and action—is presented as a higher path than mere austerity, mere intellectual learning, or action pursued for personal gain; Arjuna is urged to cultivate this yogic steadiness.
In the midst of the Kurukṣetra setting, Kṛṣṇa is instructing Arjuna on the hierarchy of spiritual disciplines, emphasizing that the yogin’s inner balance and integrated practice surpass isolated austerity, scholarship, or result-driven work, and he exhorts Arjuna to adopt yoga.
