In plain words
You are caught in a pattern right now — reaching for what you want, running from what you don't, and exhausted by the fight. Krishna says: this push and pull is not your fault, but it is the cage you're living in, and recognizing it is the first crack in the door. The moment you see how desire and rejection are running your life, you become free to choose something else.
Word by Word
From the moment of birth, all beings are caught in the web of desire and aversion — the fundamental dance of duality that clouds the mirror of consciousness. The Lord speaks here not in judgment but in compassionate diagnosis: this is the nature of the conditioned mind, caught between wanting and rejecting, forever fragmented.
When you recognize this pattern operating within you — how you chase what feels good and push away what feels bad — you begin to see the chains and the possibility of freedom beyond them.
