बलं बलवतां चाहं कामरागविवर्जितम् | धर्माविरुद्धो भूतेषु कामोऽस्मि भरतर्षभ
balaṃ balavatāṃ cāhaṃ kāmarāgavivarjitam . dharmāviruddho bhūteṣu kāmo.asmi bharatarṣabha
婆罗多族之雄啊！我乃强者之中，那离欲和无执著的力量。在众生之中，我乃不违背达摩（dharma）的欲望。
And of the strong I am the strength which is devoid of passion and attachment. Among creatures I am desire which is not contrary to righteousness, O scion of the Bharata dyansty.
此节解释了奎师那（Krishna）所代表的力量和欲望的本质。他所指的力量是维持身体基本生存所必需的，而非产生感官对象之欲求和执著的力量。同样，他所指的欲望是符合经典教诲或生命职责规范的，例如适度的饮食，这些对于身体的维持和瑜伽（yoga）的修行是必要的。
Kama Desire for those objects that come in contact with the senses.Raga attachment for those objects that come in contact with the senses.I am that strength which is necessary for the bare sustenance of the body. I am not the strength which generates desire and attachment for sensual objects as in the case of worldlyminded persons. I am the desire which is in accordance with the teachings of the scriptures or the code prescribing the duties of life. I am the desire for moderate eating and drinking? etc.? which are,necessary for the sustenance of the body and which help one in the practice of Yoga.
