Chapter-13
The field and the knower of the field
If we say that you have clarified his meaning admirably, it will only overwhelm you. Therefore we would not say it; but this much we say, that we have thoroughly enjoyed this ride in the boat of knowledge, hearing your discourse. Now tell us promptly what the Lord said further.” Hearing these words of the holy men, Jnanadeva, the disciple of Nivritti said, ‘Hear now what the Lord said’ (855-860). He said, “O Arjuna, the characteristics which you have heard now are of ignorance. You should now turn your back on this ignorance and fix your mind firmly on knowledge. Then you will attain to the knowable (the Supreme) through that spotless knowledge.” Hearing this, Arjuna longed to know it and divining this wish of Arjuna, the omniscient Lord said: I shall tell you now, what that knowable is. |
