श्रीभगवानुवाच | इदं तु ते गुह्यतमं प्रवक्ष्याम्यनसूयवे | ज्ञानं विज्ञानसहितं यज्ज्ञात्वा मोक्ष्यसेऽशुभात्
śrībhagavānuvāca . idaṃ tu te guhyatamaṃ pravakṣyāmyanasūyave . jñānaṃ vijñānasahitaṃ yajjñātvā mokṣyase.aśubhāt
至福主言：然而，对于你这位不吹毛求疵者，我将讲述这至高无上的秘密本身，即与证悟相结合的智，通过了悟它，你将从罪恶中解脱。
The Blessed Lord said However, to you who are not given to cavilling I shall speak of this highest secret itself, which is Knowledge [Jnana may mean Brahman that is Consciousness, or Its knowledge gathered from the Vedas (paroksa-jnana). Vijnana is direct experience (aparoksa-jnana).] combined with experience, by realizing which you shall be free from evil.
“此”（Idam）指代真我（Atman）的知识。智（Jnana）是指通过研习奥义书（Upanishads）获得的梵（Brahman）的理论知识，亦称间接梵智。证悟（Vijnana）是指对梵或真我（Atman）的直接直观感知，亦称直接梵智。唯有此智是脱离罪恶或轮回（Samsara）束缚、摆脱生死的直接途径。真我的知识是至深之秘，难以言喻，只能通过直接经验或灵性直觉来证悟。阿特曼（Atman）或梵，即自性光明、永恒、至高无上的补卢沙（Puruṣa），永远闪耀在人类的心室中。克里希那（Krishna）勋主说：“阿周那（Arjuna）啊，我将把这与证悟相结合的至深秘密知识传授给你，因为你没有嫉妒之心。”由此可见，没有嫉妒心是修行者重要的资质。知识只能在没有各种嫉妒的心中显现，嫉妒会极大地分散心神，并产生强烈的内心痛苦。嫉妒是无明的一种变相，可以通过探究真我（Atman）的本质并培养其反面品质，即高尚、宽广的包容、慷慨和宽宏大量来根除。
Idam (this) alludes to knowledge of the Self.Jnana Theoretical knowledge of Brahman through the study of the Upanishads? also known as Paroksha Brahma Jnana.Vijnana Direct intuitive perception of Brahman or AtmaSakshatkara? also known as Aparoksha Brahma Jnana.This alone forms the direct means of attaining to liberation from evil or the bondage of Samsara? freedom from birth and death.The knowledge of the Self is the most profound secret. It can hardly be described in words. It can be realised only through direct experience or spiritual intuition. Atman or Brahman or the selfluminous? eternal? Supreme Purusha is ever shining in the chambers of the hearts of men. Throughout the ages there have always been a few who have trodden the spiritual path and found out this secret or the spiritual treasure of the precious pearl of the Self. Knowledge of the Self is the only direct means for attaining liberation? Karma Yoga purifies the heart and leads to the dawn of the knowledge of the Self.Lord Krishna says? O Arjuna? I shall teach you this profoundest secret knowledge combined with realisation as you are free from jealousy. From this we can clearly understand that freedom from jealousy is an important alification for an aspirant. Knowledge can only dawn in a mind which is free from all forms of jealousy which causes great distraction of the mind and produces intense heartburning. Matsarya (malicious envy)? Irshya (jealous of others prosperity or happiness) and Asuya (envious or indignant over the merits of another) are all varieties of jealousy. If you superimpose evil alities on a virtuous man who really does not possess these alities on a virtuous man who really does not possess these alities and speak ill of him? this is jealousy (Asuya). To behold evil or to look at a person with the faultfinding evil eye? and to see evil in him who is free from any kind of fault and who is virtuous is Asyua. Jealousy is only pettymindedness. This is a modification of ignorance. It can be eradicated by eniry of the nature of the Self and cultivating its opposite alities? viz.? nobility? broad and universal tolerance? magnanimity and largeheartedness.To thee who does not carp or cavil This implies that Arjuna was endowed with all the virtues of a disciple such as straightforwardness? selfcontrol? restraint of the senses? serenity of mind? discrmination? dispassion? etc. This is the Upalakshana (the truth alluded to where only a part is stated) and Asuya is the Upalakshaka (the hint which alludes to the Upalakshana).
