Gīta Bhāshya 2.11
The wise grieve neither for the dead nor for the living
प्रज्ञावादान् स्वमनीषोत्थवचनानि। कथमशोच्याः? गतासून् ॥११ ॥
prajñāvādān svamanīṣōtthavacanāni। kathamaśōcyāḥ? gatāsūn ॥11 ॥
[prajñā vādān = Here 'prajñāvādān' means; sva manīṣōttha = based on one's own intelligence; vacanāni = thoughts; katham aśōcyāḥ? = Why should one not worry?; gatāsūn = by the hymn 'gatasoon';]

Gīta Tātparya 2.11
The argument opposed to knowledgeable is 'prajna-avāda'.
प्रकर्षेण जानन्तीति प्रज्ञाः तदवादः प्रज्ञावादः। प्राज्ञमतविरुद्धवादं वदसि। कथम् ? गतासून् ॥ ११ ॥
prakarṣēṇa jānantīti prajñāḥ tadavādaḥ prajñāvādaḥ। prājñamataviruddhavādaṁ vadasi। katham? gatāsūn ॥ 11 ॥
[prakarṣēṇa = Those who can grasp; jānantīti = and understand well; prajñāḥ= are knowledgeable, Wise (jnanins); tad avādaḥ prajñāvādaḥ = The argument opposed them is 'prajñāvādān'; prājñamataviruddhavādaṁ = opposed to the opinion of knowledgeable; vadasi = You are stating; katham ? = Why; gatāsūn = Answer is given by 'gatāsūn' ( 2.11)]
The 'Jnānins' are those who can grasp and understand well. The argument opposed to them is 'prajñāvāda', (So, Krishna says) you are stating an opinion that is opposed to Jnānins. Why? Answer is given by 'gatāsūn'.
