Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 4 verse 38


Chapter 4 verse 38

“Certainly, there is no purifier in this world like Knowledge. He, who is himself perfected in yoga finds it in the Self in time”

Yoga is a generic word which stresses on the union of body, mind, intellect and consciousness. When the body, mind, intellect merge into supreme consciousness and acts in unison, Self Knowledge occurs. In this verse, Krishna focuses on Yoga of Knowledge or jnana yoga. One usually starts doing action, graduates to surrendering all actions to the divine and through this meditative state of action, gains faith and devotion to the supreme thereby gaining the ultimate Knowledge of Self. This method is time tested and history is testimony to multiple real life examples of this beautiful journey of the discovery of the Self by the self.
