Purport Overview & Key Insights
Seeing Arjuna overwhelmed with pity, his eyes full of tears, Kṛiṣhṇa — here called Madhusūdana, 'slayer of Madhu' — finally speaks. The epithet is pointed: the one who destroys demons is about to address a very different kind of enemy, Arjuna's own confusion.
✨ Devotional Takeaway:The teaching begins only after Krishna has fully witnessed Arjuna's grief, not before.
