Srimad Bhagavadgita Sadhaka Sanjivani -Swami Ramsukhdas
Chapter 13
Appendix:—These twenty virtues have been called `Jnana' (wisdom) because they enable as to know the difference between `ksetra' and `ksetrajna'. Whatever opposite to it is 'Ajnana' (ignorance). Without following the spiritual discipline (these virtues), a man may learn facts pertaining to knowledge but he can't realize the reality. Therefore without spiritual practice, ignorance (to perceive 'ksetra' and 'ksetrajna' alike) prevails, and so long as ignorance prevails, if a man having learnt the difference between 'ksetra' and 'ksetrajna', discusses it, then in fact he strengthens 'dehabhimana' (identification of the Self with the body). But he who practises these virtues, he becomes able to distinguish between 'ksetra' and 'ksetrajna'.
