Chapter 13
Kshetra-kshetraaajnyavibhaga Yoga

The Supreme Lord is the Independent cause. the Witness, Ordainer thus has been clarified.Since He is the witness, the overseer on all others, He is known as उपदष्टा. Since according one's own volition, he energizes the mind independently, He is known as अनुमन्ता, Sri Hari is the Lord. Since extremely powerful, He is called Sri Vishnu,. Since He is the supreme among all, He alone is the Ordainer. He alone abides separately within each of all the bodies, having said - know Me to be abiding in all सर्वक्षेत्रेषु , abiding in the bodies. Such assertion shows that He alone IS.
24. He who knows Purusha, Prakriti along with the attributes in this manner, though he performs actions all the while, he is never born again.
Bhashya :- Here the Purusha referred is the Jiva. In पुरूषु प्रकृति, Purusha referred is the Lord. Thus Purusha is spoken both as the Lord as well as the Jiva. In other cases, such important inference is contradicted. The supreme inference has already been clarified thus in Saukayana scripture.- “The immortal, greater than the great, Sri Vishnu being supreme, in His greatness alone is all the scriptural statements are engaged; even otherwise it is the Truth”. No contradiction can be assumed here, Of this there is no doubt. No such thing here is rational nor do the Seers speak of any such evidences. Similarly, neither by rationalization nor by personal experiences such evidences are observed. Therefore, even rationalization cannot disprove what has been established by scriptures. If by rationalization anything is imagined, which is not wisdom, then same should be rejected as obscuring the Truth as revealed in Vedas.
