Towards the end of His instruction to Arjuna, Krishna explains the truth that each jivatma is bound by one’s own duty and swabhava or inherent nature, pointed out Asuri Sri Madhavachariar in a discourse. These overpower the individual will and this is the reason why beings act in their personal ways. Here, Krishna explains this esoteric truth through an interesting analogy. Krishna then explains the way to get rid of Maya. What greater fortune for the struggling jivatma than to be thus blessed by the boundless grace of the Supreme Ruler of all?
