The Yoga of Arjuna's Despair

Arjuna diagnoses the enemy: 'lobhopahata-cetasaḥ'—minds overcome by greed. Their inability to see isn't ignorance—it's selective blindness. They 'na paśyanti' (don't see) the fault in family destruction or betraying friends. Why? 'Lobha' (greed) has 'upahata' (impaired) their 'cetasaḥ' (judgment). You don't need to be evil to do bad things—you just need to want something badly enough that you stop seeing clearly. The insight: moral blindness isn't permanent character flaw, it's temporary distortion caused by desire.
