Krishna reinforces the pedagogical rule introduced in Verse 26. He explains that people who are utterly bewildered by the modes of nature (prakṛter guṇa-sammūḍhāḥ) naturally become deeply attached to the actions and results of those modes (sajjante guṇa-karmasu). Because they possess only partial, fragmented knowledge (akṛtsna-vido) and are slow to grasp the Absolute (mandān), the one who possesses complete knowledge (kṛtsna-vin) must not unsettle or violently disturb their minds (na vicālayet).
