Hindi Translation (हिन्दी अर्थ)
परन्तु जो दोष लगाते हुए मेरे इस मत का पालन नहीं करते — उन समस्त ज्ञान से मोहित, विवेकहीन मनुष्यों को नष्ट (भटके हुए) समझो।
English Translation
But those who, finding fault with this teaching, do not follow it — know them to be deluded in all knowledge, devoid of discrimination, and doomed to ruin.
Commentary (टीका)
Krishna warns that those who reject the teaching of selfless action out of spite or arrogance remain trapped in ignorance. The word 'abhyasuyantah' refers to those who find fault not from genuine inquiry but from ego-driven resistance. Such rejection closes the door to wisdom and perpetuates suffering.
