# Bhagavadgita 3.2

Bhagavadgītā 3.2

- **Language:** Sanskrit

### [3.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.all.gita.3.2)

vyāmiśreṇaiva vākyena buddhiṃ mohayasīva me  
tad ekaṃ vada niścitya yena śreyo 'ham āpnuyām

> Arguna said:  
> If, O Ganârdana! devotion is deemed by you to be superior to action, then why, O Kesava! do you prompt me to (this) fearful action? You seem, indeed, to confuse my mind by equivocal words. Therefore, declare one thing determinately, by which I may attain the highest good.  
> — Kashinath Trimbak Telang 1882, The Bhagavadgîtâ (Sacred Books of the East, vol. 8)
