Chapter 3: Karm Yog
arjuna uvācha
atha kena prayukto ’yaṁ pāpaṁ charati pūruṣhaḥ
anichchhann api vārṣhṇeya balād iva niyojitaḥ || 36||

My Understanding : Kama and Krodha – The three gunas are a part of nature, and it is the soul’s nature to be influenced by them. We often find ourselves doing things we don’t like; even though we may feel bad, we do them to make others happy. Deep down, our heart knows when something is not aligned with our desires, yet we still carry out those actions. Arjuna asked Krishna about this very dilemma.
