PURPORT

A kshatriya royal order or a rich man is sometimes visited by persons who are in need of money. When they come for asking such donation it is the duty of the possessor of wealth to give in charity in consideration of the person place and time. If a Kshatriya or richman fails to comply with such obligation he must be very sorry for this discrepancy. Similarly one should not fail to keep up his promise of giving in charity. These discrepancies are sometimes causes of despondecy and thus failing person becomes subjected to criticism with unfriendly and inauspicious words which might be also the cause of Arjuna's plight.
