Chapter 14
Link:- Having heard from Lord Krsna, the truth that the embodied soul, transcending the three guns, attains to immortality, Arjuna became curious to know the characteristics and conduct, of such a person, who has transcended the three guns and also the means of rising above these, and so he puts the question:
arjuna uvaca
kairlingaistringunanetanatito bhavati prabho
kimacarah katham caitarirstringunenativartate
Arjuna said:-
What are the marks of him, who has transcended the three gums (modes), O Lord? What is his conduct like? How does he transcend, the three modes? 21
Comment:-
Kairliidgaistringunanetanatito bhavati prabho:- O Lord, I want to know the characteristics of a person, who has transcended the three modes of nature. What are the symptoms of such a person, by which he can be distinguished, from other common people?
'Kimacarah'—What is his conduct, what is his daily routine, how does he live and what are, his activities? Are they regulated or nonregulated? How are they different, from those of common men?
Katharh caitamstringunanativartate:- What is the means, by which one, can transcend the three modes?
