श्रीभगवानुवाच | परं भूयः प्रवक्ष्यामि ज्ञानानां ज्ञानमुत्तमम् | यज्ज्ञात्वा मुनयः सर्वे परां सिद्धिमितो गताः
śrībhagavānuvāca . paraṃ bhūyaḥ pravakṣyāmi jñānānāṃ jñānamuttamam . yajjñātvā munayaḥ sarve parāṃ siddhimito gatāḥ
ஸ்ரீ பகவான் உரைத்தார்: ஞானங்களில் சிறந்ததும், பரமமானதும் ஆகிய ஒரு ஞானத்தை மீண்டும் உனக்குச் சொல்கிறேன். அதை அறிந்து முனிவர்கள் அனைவரும் இங்கிருந்தே பரம சித்தியை அடைந்தனர்.
The Blessed Lord said I shall speak again of the supreme Knowledge, the best of all knowledges, by realizing which all the contemplatives reached the highest Perfection from here.
பகவான், அனைத்து ஞானங்களிலும் மேலானதும், உயர்ந்ததுமான ஒரு ஞானத்தை அர்ஜுனனுக்கு மீண்டும் உபதேசிக்கிறார். இந்த ஞானத்தை அறிந்த முனிவர்கள், இந்த உலகிலேயே இருந்து கொண்டே, பிறப்பு-இறப்பு சுழற்சியிலிருந்து விடுபட்டு, மிக உயர்ந்த முக்தி நிலையை அடைந்தனர்.
Further analysis of the field is made in this chapter.In chapter XIII? verse 21? it has been stated that attachment to the alities is the cause of Samsara or births in good and evil wombs. In this chapter the Lord gives answers to the estions What are the alities of Nature (Gunas) How do they bind a man What are the characteristics of these alities How do they operate How can one obtain freedom from them What are the characteristics of a liberated soulAll knowledge has no reference to the knowledge described in chapter XIII? verse 7 to 10? but it refers to that kind of knowledge which concerns sacrifices. That kind of knowledge which relates to sacrifices cannot give liberation. But the knowledge which is going to be imparted in this discourse will certainly lead to emancipation. The Lord eulogises this knowledge by the epithets supreme and the best in order to create great interest in Arjuna and other spiritual aspirants.Having learnt this supreme knowledge? all the sages who practised Manana or reflection (Munis) have attained perfection after being freed from bondage to the body.Itah After this life after being freed from this bondage to the body.
