Karma Yogah - My intelligence is confused by your apparently mixed words. Please tell me the one way by which I may attain the highest good.
व्यामिश्रेणेव वाक्येन बुद्धिं मोहयसीव मे |
तदेकं वद निश्चित्य येन श्रेयोऽहमाप्नुयाम् ||2||

My intelligence is confused by your apparently mixed words. Please tell me the one way by which I may attain the highest good.

  • Śreyaḥ: Ultimate good or the highest good.
  • Mohayasi: Confuse or delude.
  • Buddhi: Intelligence or intellect.

Arjuna requests a clear answer from Krishna, feeling overwhelmed by seemingly contradictory teachings. This sets the stage for Krishna to clarify that knowledge and action are complementary, each enhancing the other.
