Abhinavagupta1.30 1.34 Na ca sreyah, etc., upto mahikrte. Those who are wrongly conceived as object of slaying, with the individualizing idea that 'these are my teachers etc.'8 would necessarily generate sin. Similarly, the act of slaying even of those deserving to be slain in the battle-if undertaken with the idea that 'This battle is to be fought for the apparent results like pleasures, happiness etc.'- then it generates sin necessarily. This idea lurks in the objection [of Arjuna]. That is why a reply is going to be given [by Bhagavat] as 'You must undertake actions simply as your own duty, and not with an individualizing idea'.

Rāmānuja1.26 - 1.47 Arjuna said - Sanjaya said Sanjaya continued: The high-minded Arjuna, extremely kind, deeply friendly, and supremely righteous, having brothers like himself, though repeatedly deceived by the treacherous attempts of your people like burning in the lac-house etc., and therefore fit to be killed by him with the help of the Supreme Person, nevertheless said, 'I will not fight.' He felt weak, overcome as he was by his love and extreme compassion for his relatives. He was also filled with fear, not knowing what was righteous and what unrighteous. His mind was tortured by grief, because of the thought of future separation from his relations. So he threw away his bow and arrow and sat on the chariot as if to fast to death.

A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaArjuna has addressed Lord Kṛṣṇa as Govinda because Kṛṣṇa is the object of all pleasures for cows and the senses. By using this significant word, Arjuna indicates that Kṛṣṇa should understand what will satisfy Arjuna’s senses. But Govinda is not meant for satisfying our senses. If we try to satisfy the senses of Govinda, however, then automatically our own senses are satisfied. Materially, everyone wants to satisfy his senses, and he wants God to be the order supplier for such satisfaction. The Lord will satisfy the senses of the living entities as much as they deserve, but not to the extent that they may covet. But when one takes the opposite way – namely, when one tries to satisfy the senses of Govinda without desiring to satisfy one’s own senses – then by the grace of Govinda all desires of the living entity are satisfied. Arjuna’s deep affection for community and family members is exhibited here partly due to his natural compassion for them. He is therefore not prepared to fight. Everyone wants to show his opulence to friends and relatives, but Arjuna fears that all his relatives and friends will be killed on the battlefield and he will be unable to share his opulence after victory. This is a typical calculation of material life. The transcendental life, however, is different. Since a devotee wants to satisfy the desires of the Lord, he can, Lord willing, accept all kinds of opulence for the service of the Lord, and if the Lord is not willing, he should not accept a farthing. Arjuna did not want to kill his relatives, and if there were any need to kill them, he desired that Kṛṣṇa kill them personally. At this point he did not know that Kṛṣṇa had already killed them before their coming into the battlefield and that he was only to become an instrument for Kṛṣṇa. This fact is disclosed in following chapters. As a natural devotee of the Lord, Arjuna did not like to retaliate against his miscreant cousins and brothers, but it was the Lord’s plan that they should all be killed. The devotee of the Lord does not retaliate against the wrongdoer, but the Lord does not tolerate any mischief done to the devotee by the miscreants. The Lord can excuse a person on His own account, but He excuses no one who has done harm to His devotees. Therefore the Lord was determined to kill the miscreants, although Arjuna wanted to excuse them.

Swami Chinmayananda।।1.34।। एक ही क्षत्रिय परिवार के लोगों के बीच होने जा रहे इस गृहयुद्ध के विरुद्ध अर्जुन भगवान् श्रीकृष्ण को अन्य तर्क भी देता है। भावाविष्ट अर्जुन अपने कायरतापूर्ण पलायन के लिये अनेक तर्क देकर अपने विचार को उचित सिद्ध करना चाहता है जबकि भाग्य से प्राप्त कर्तव्य करने से वास्तव में वह दूर भाग रहा है।उसने जो कुछ पहले कहा था उसी को वह दोहराता रहता है क्योंकि श्रीकृष्ण अपने गूढ़ मौन द्वारा उसके तर्क स्वीकार नहीं कर रहे थे। भगवान् के अधरों की तीक्ष्ण मुस्कान अर्जुन को लज्जित कर रही थी। वह अपने मित्र एवं सारथि श्रीकृष्ण की अपने विचारों के प्रति स्वीकृति और सहमति चाहता था परन्तु न तो उनकी दृष्टि के भाव से और न ही उनके शब्दों से उसे इच्छित सहमति मिल रही थी।

Swami Ramsukhdas।।1.34।। व्याख्या --[भगवान् आगे सोलहवें अध्यायके इक्कीसवें श्लोकमें कहेंगे कि काम, क्रोध और लोभ--ये तीनों ही नरकके द्वार हैं। वास्तवमें एक कामके ही ये तीन रूप हैं। ये तीनों सांसारिक वस्तुओं, व्यक्तियों आदिको महत्त्व देनेसे पैदा होते हैं। काम अर्थात् कामनाकी दो तरहकी क्रियाएँ होती हैं--इष्टकी प्राप्ति और अनिष्टकी निवृत्ति। इनमेंसे इष्टकी प्राप्ति भी दो तरहकी होती है --संग्रह करना और सुख भोगना। संग्रहकी इच्छाका नाम 'लोभ' है और सुखभोगकी इच्छाका नाम 'काम' है। अनिष्टकी निवृत्तिमें बाधा पड़नेपर 'क्रोध' आता है अर्थात् भोगोंकी, संग्रहकी प्राप्तिमें बाधा देनेवालोंपर अथवा हमारा अनिष्ट करनेवालोंपर, हमारे शरीरका नाश करनेवालोंपर क्रोध आता है, जिससे अनिष्ट करनेवालोंका नाश करनेकी क्रिया होती है। इससे सिद्ध हुआ कि युद्धमें मनुष्यकी दो तरहसे ही प्रवृत्ति होती है --अनिष्टकी निवृत्तिके लिये अर्थात् अपने 'क्रोध' को सफल बनानेके लिये और इष्टकी प्राप्तिके लिये अर्थात् 'लोभ' की पूर्तिके लिये। परन्तु अर्जुन यहाँ इन दोनों ही बातोंका निषेध कर रहे हैं] 'आचार्याः पितरः৷৷. किं नु महीकृते'-- अगर हमारे ये कुटुम्बीजन अपनी अनिष्ट-निवृत्तिके लिये क्रोधमें आकर मेरेपर प्रहार करके मेरा वध भी करना चाहें, तो भी मैं अपनी अनिष्ट-निवृत्तिके लिये क्रोधमें आकर इनको मारना नहीं चाहता। अगर ये अपनी इष्टप्राप्तिके लिये राज्यके लोभमें आकर मेरेको मारना चाहें, तो भी मैं अपनी इष्ट-प्राप्तिके लिये लोभमें आकर इनको मारना नहीं चाहता। तात्पर्य यह हुआ कि क्रोध और लोभमें आकर मेरेको नरकोंका दरवाजा मोल नहीं लेना है। यहाँ दो बार 'अपि' पदका प्रयोग करनेमें अर्जुनका आशय यह है कि मैं इनके स्वार्थमें बाधा ही नहीं देता तो ये मुझे मारेंगे ही क्यों? पर मान लो कि 'पहले इसने हमारे स्वार्थमें बाधा दी है' ऐसे विचारसे ये मेरे शरीरका नाश करनेमें प्रवृत्त हो जायँ, तो भी (घ्नतोऽपि) मैं इनको मारना नहीं चाहता। दूसरी बात, इनको मारनेसे मुझे त्रिलोकीका राज्य मिल जाय, यह तो सम्भावना ही नहीं है, पर मान लो कि इनको मारनेसे मुझे त्रिलोकीका राज्य मिलता हो तो भी (अपि त्रैलोक्यराज्यस्य हेतोः) मैं इनको मारना नहीं चाहता। 'मधूसूदन'(टिप्पणी प0 24.2) सम्बोधनका तात्पर्य है कि आप तो दैत्योंको मारनेवाले हैं, पर ये द्रोण आदि आचार्य और भीष्म आदि पितामह दैत्य थोड़े ही हैं, जिससे मैं इनको मारनेकी इच्छा करूँ? ये तो हमारे अत्यन्त नजदीकके खास सम्बन्धी हैं। 'आचार्याः'-- इन कुटुम्बियोंमें जिन द्रोणाचार्य आदिसे हमारा विद्याका, हितका सम्बन्ध है, ऐसे पूज्य आचार्योंकी मेरेको सेवा करनी चाहिये कि उनके साथ लड़ाई करनी चाहिये? आचार्यके चरणोंमें तो अपने-आपको, अपने प्राणोंको भी समर्पित कर देना चाहिये। यही हमारे लिये उचित है। 'पितरः'-- शरीरके सम्बन्धको लेकर जो पितालोग हैं, उनका ही तो रूप यह हमारा शरीर है। शरीरसे उनके स्वरूप होकर हम क्रोध या लोभमें आकर अपने उन पिताओंको कैसे मारें? 'पुत्राः'-- हमारे और हमारे भाइयोंके जो पुत्र हैं, वे तो सर्वथा पालन करनेयोग्य हैं। वे हमारे विपरीत कोई क्रिया भी कर बैठें, तो भी उनका पालन करना ही हमारा धर्म है। 'पितामहाः'-- ऐसे ही जो पितामह हैं, वे जब हमारे पिताजीके भी पूज्य हैं, तब हमारे लिये तो परमपूज्य हैं ही। वे हमारी ताड़ना कर सकते हैं, हमें मार भी सकते हैं। पर हमारी तो ऐसी ही चेष्टा होनी चाहिये, जिससे उनको किसी तरहका दुःख न हो, कष्ट न हो, प्रत्युत उनको सुख हो, आराम हो, उनकी सेवा हो। 'मातुलाः'-- हमारे जो मामालोग हैं, वे हमारा पालन-पोषण करनेवाली माताओंके ही भाई हैं। अतः वे माताओंके समान ही पूज्य होने चाहिये। 'श्वशुराः'-- ये जो हमारे ससुर हैं, ये मेरी और मेरे भाइयोंकी पत्नियोंके पूज्य पिताजी हैं। अतः ये हमारे लिये भी पिताके ही तुल्य हैं। इनको मैं कैसे मारना चाहूँ? 'पौत्राः'-- हमारे पुत्रोंके जो पुत्र हैं, वे तो पुत्रोंसे भी अधिक पालन-पोषण करनेयोग्य हैं। 'श्यालाः'-- हमारे जो साले हैं, वे भी हमलोगोंकी पत्नियोंके प्यारे भैया हैं। उनको भी कैसे मारा जाय! 'सम्बन्धिनः'-- ये जितने सम्बन्धी दीख रहे हैं और इनके अतिरिक्त जितने भी सम्बन्धी हैं, उनका पालन-पोषण, सेवा करनी चाहिये कि उनको मारना चाहिये? इनको मारनेसे अगर हमें त्रिलोकीका राज्य भी मिल जाय, तो भी क्या इनको मारना उचित है? इनको मारना तो सर्वथा अनुचित है।सम्बन्ध-- पूर्वश्लोकमें अर्जुनने स्वजनोंको न मारनेमें दो हेतु बताये। अब परिणामकी दृष्टिसे भी स्वजनोंको न मारना सिद्ध करते हैं।
