Arjuna upita: O Kṛṣṇa, kakav je položaj onih koji ne slijede načela spisa, već obožavaju po vlastitu nahođenju? Jesu li u vrlini, strasti ili neznanju?

SMISAO: U trideset devetom stihu četvrtoga poglavlja bilo je rečeno da se osoba vjerna određenoj vrsti obožavanja postupno uzdiže na razinu znanja i dostiže najvišu savršenu razinu mira i blagostanja. U šesnaestom poglavlju bilo je zaključeno da se onaj tko ne slijedi načela spisa naziva asurom, demonom, a onaj tko vjerno slijedi odredbe spisa devom ili polubogom. Međutim, ako netko s vjerom slijedi pravila koja nisu spomenuta u odredbama spisa, kakav je njegov položaj? Kṛṣṇa treba raspršiti tu Arjuninu sumnju. Obožavaju li oni koji stvaraju neku vrstu Boga, birajući ljudsko biće i polažući svoju vjeru u njega, u vrlini, strasti ili neznanju? Dostižu li savršenu razinu života? Mogu li se utemeljiti u pravom znanju i uzdići na najvišu razinu savršenstva? Postižu li osobe koje ne slijede pravila i propise spisa, ali imaju vjeru u nešto i obožavaju bogove, polubogove i ljude, uspjeh u svojim naporima? Arjuna postavlja Kṛṣṇi ova pitanja.
In the Fourth Chapter, thirty-ninth verse, it is said that a person faithful to a particular type of worship gradually becomes elevated to the stage of knowledge and attains the highest perfectional stage of peace and prosperity. In the Sixteenth Chapter, it is concluded that one who does not follow the principles laid down in the scriptures is called an asura, demon, and one who follows the scriptural injunctions faithfully is called a deva, or demigod. Now, if one, with faith, follows some rules which are not mentioned in the scriptural injunctions, what is his position? This doubt of Arjuna’s is to be cleared by Kṛṣṇa. Are those who create some sort of God by selecting a human being and placing their faith in him worshiping in goodness, passion or ignorance? Do such persons attain the perfectional stage of life? Is it possible for them to be situated in real knowledge and elevate themselves to the highest perfectional stage? Do those who do not follow the rules and regulations of the scriptures but who have faith in something and worship gods and demigods and men attain success in their effort? Arjuna is putting these questions to Kṛṣṇa.
