Educational Q&A

The verse situates human inquiry within a wider moral-cosmic framework by invoking multiple classes of beings—divine, sage, and spirit—implying that dharma and knowledge are not limited to human society but are embedded in a layered universe with recognized orders and authorities.

Arjuna is speaking and enumerating various categories of celestial and supernatural beings—gods, sages, Gandharvas, Piśācas, Yakṣas, and divine leaders—typically as part of a broader question or description that frames the scope of a matter as extending across all realms.
