Chapter 1: Arjun’s uncontrolled feelings and emotions. He became stagnant physically and mentally. No human development is possible in stagnant life and mind. Flowing water is clean and pure. Chapter 2: Human development is possible only when feelings and emotions are controlled. No animal can control feelings, whatever feelings come they express automatically their feelings in action. But man control feelings, then they try to understand the environment, then adapt oneself to that situation. So, controlling feelings is the first step in thinking, followed by effective action.
