Krishna explains human sociology and the desire for quick results. He states that in this human world (iha mānuṣe loke), men intensely desire success and perfection in their material activities (kāṅkṣantaḥ karmaṇāṃ siddhiṃ). Because they want these results quickly, they worship and sacrifice to the demigods or lesser authorities (yajanta devatāḥ). Krishna validates their method: indeed, success born of such material work (siddhir karmajā) happens very quickly (kṣipraṃ hi) in this world.
