That order of Kṛṣṇa comes through disciplic succession from the bona fide spiritual master.

The best advice imparted to Arjuna is to surrender unto the Supersoul seated within his heart. By right discrimination, one should agree to act according to the order of the Supersoul. That will help one become situated constantly in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, the highest perfectional stage of human life.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

He is meant for self-discipline. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu says that the actual position of the living entity is that of eternal servant of the Supreme Lord. Forgetting this principle, the living entity becomes conditioned by material nature, but in serving the Supreme Lord he becomes the liberated servant of God.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
