Chapter 13
Kshetra-kshetraaajnyavibhaga Yoga
14 – 15. Having in all the fragments the energy of his hands and feet, eyes, face and ears, He abides enveloping all the places. Though conscious of the attributes of all the sense-organs, He is devoid of all the sense-organs as well, though unattached, enjoys all the things, though without any attributes, He revels in all the attributes.
Bhashya :- Since He envelops the attributes of all the senses, He is conscious of the attributes of all the sense-organs. Later He is said to be devoid of any (gross) sense-organs. Since He is attained by being wise in experience, He is the goal of Wisdom.
16 – 17 – 18. He is inside as well as outside, in the moveable and the immoveable creatures. Being subtle, He is not knowable. He is far as well as closer.Though appearing to exist separate in each of the creatures, He does not exist in that manner. He should be known as the nourisher, destroyer as well as the creator.The light of the lights, He is said to be beyond darkness. Being the Wisdom, the object of Wisdom and the goal of Wisdom, He abides in the heart of all.
Tatparya Nirnaya :- Know one's Self by one's own Self‟, since being wise in Wisdom in this manner, He is the object of Wisdom. It is understood that He is Wisdom through other means, and then the words ज्ञेयं यत् तत् earlier explained will be repeated. Here in the latter statement, He denies the seeming contradiction how the same one could the means as well as the end of the enquiry. Keshava knows Himself through His own Self alone. His knowing, thus, is also not being dependent on anyone else. In certain cases, He comes to be known by others also. But without His grace He cannot be known by others. But in knowing His own Self or in knowing the Self of others, He has no personal goal to be achieved. He is self-illumined; therefore He is the Best of the Persons. For the Jivas, His knowledge is through His grace alone.
