3.13
यज्ञशिष्टाशिनः सन्तो मुच्यन्ते सर्वकिल्बिषैः ।
भुञ्जते ते त्वघं पापा ये पचन्त्यात्मकारणात् ॥
యజ్ఞశిష్టాశినః సన్తో ముచ్యన్తే సర్వకిల్బిషైః ।
భుఞ్జతే తే త్వఘం పాపా యే పచన్త్యాత్మకారణాత్ ॥
yajñaśiṣṭāśinaḥ santo mucyante sarvakilbiṣaiḥ |
bhuñjate te tvaghaṃ pāpā ye pacantyātmakāraṇāt ||
About chapter 3
Arjuna asks why he should act at all if knowledge is higher than action. Krishna explains that no one can stay without acting even for a moment; the right way is to act selflessly, as an offering (yajña). Leaders must set an example for others. The chapter ends by naming desire and anger as the enemy that clouds wisdom, and how to conquer it.
