Word by Word
Krishna reveals the ultimate secret of action: you are never truly the doer. The enemies are already slain in the cosmic design; your role is to move as an instrument of divine will.
This doesn't diminish your responsibility—it liberates you from the crushing weight of personal authorship. When you truly accept that you are merely the bow, not the archer, fear dissolves and right action flows naturally from duty, not from ego's desperate grip on outcomes.
