CHAPTER 13 The Sphere of Action and Its Knower इति क्षेत्रं तथा ज्ञानं ज्ञेयं चोक्तं समासत:। मद्भक्त एतद्विज्ञाय मद्भावायोपपद्यते ॥18॥ [ “Knowing the truth of what has been briefly said of kshetr, knowledge, and of God, who ought to be known, my devotee attains to my state.’’ ] Krishn now makes use of the terms “nature” (prakriti) and “Soul” (purush) for what he earlier described as kshetr and kshetragya प्रकृतिं पुरुषं चैव विद्ध्यनादी उभावपि। विकारांश्च गुणांश्चैव विद्धि प्रकृतिसंभवान् ॥19॥ [ “Be it known to you that both nature and Soul are without beginning and end, and also that maladies such as attachment, revulsion, and all the objects that are possessed of the three properties are born from nature.’’]
