INTRODUCTION

In the third verse of the fifteenth chapter there is mention of cutting down this tree with the weapon of detachment (i.e., renunciation of attachment) which is a mark of divine nature. In the fourth verse there is description of the divine nature in the expression, "I seek refuge in the Primal Person." It means that those who don't seek refuge in Him are of demoniac nature. In the nineteenth verse there is the description of divine nature when the Lord declares, "The undeluded person who thus knows Me as the Supreme Person, worships Me with his whole being." It means that those who don't worship Him are of demoniac nature.

Thus Lord Krsna could not get an opportunity to explain in detail the divine and demoniac natures because Arjuna went on putting questions. Now He gets an opportunity to explain the divine and demoniac natures in detail. So He starts the topic.
