अर्जुन बोले - हे वार्ष्णेय ! फिर यह मनुष्य न चाहता हुआ भी जबर्दस्ती लगाये हुएकी तरह किससे प्रेरित होकर पापका आचरण करता है?। अनुभव तब स्पष्ट होता है जब उसे किसी एक घटना का आकस्मिक संयोग न मानकर एक नियम की तरह देखा जाए। यह पंक्ति उसी नियम को इस प्रसंग में रखती है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
