The Yoga of Knowledge

Krishna's first teaching cuts straight to the heart: You speak wisdom but act from confusion (prajñā-vādāṁś ca bhāṣase). The truly wise grieve neither for the living nor the dead—not because they're cold, but because they see past surface changes to something unchanging. Your grief, however sincere, reveals misunderstanding about what can actually be lost. This verse is the diagnosis before the cure: Arjuna thinks his crisis is moral, but Krishna shows it's about ignorance of the eternal Self. Everything that follows will answer: What do the wise see that we don't?
