Madhvacharya's Dvaita Vedanta and translation of Sarvamoola containing Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads, and Brahmasutra.

Bhagavad Gīta Bhāshya

अर्जुन उवाच -

अथ केन प्रयुक्तोऽयं पापं चरति पूरुषः। अनिच्छन्नपि वार्ष्णेय बलादिव नियोजितः ॥३६॥

arjuna uvāca -
atha kēna prayuktō'yaṁ pāpaṁ carati pūruṣaḥ। anicchannapi vārṣṇēya balādiva niyōjitaḥ ॥36॥

Arjuna said:
O Krishna, now, impelled by what the person commits sin, even without desiring, as if driven by force?

The question stems from the statement - "One should not come under their sway" (3.34).

Many actions and causes exist such as the anger, desire, etc. Among them, which has more strength? So asks in 'atha' verse.

The word 'atha' shows a change of context. The question stems from the statement - "One should not come under these twos sway" (3.34).

बहुचित्रजगद्बहुधाकरणात् परशक्तिरनन्तगुणः परमः ।
सुखरूपममुष्य पदं परमं स्मरतस्तु भविष्यति तत्सततम् ॥
"The one who has created this variegated vast universe with varied forms has infinite power and is of infinite auspicious qualities. He certainly bestows the highest state of bliss to those who meditate on his ever happy essence." -Dwādasha stōtra 4.3
