Commentary called Jnaneshwari by Jnaneshwar:
Giving this account, Samjaya said “O King, hear what Arjuna said again, getting distressed with lamentations. He regretfully requested Lord Krishna not to press him and told him that he would not at all enter into the fight. Speaking out this ultimatum, Arjuna assumed silence. Lord Krishna was dismayed to see him in that mood.
