Purport Overview & Key Insights
Arjuna specifically wants to see who has gathered 'to please the evil-minded son of Dhṛitarāṣhṭra' in battle — he is not yet grieving for everyone equally; his eye is still on the men who chose Duryodhana's side.
✨ Devotional Takeaway:Even in doubt, Arjuna starts from a clear sense of who is in the wrong — his crisis is about the cost of fighting them, not about right and wrong itself.
