Chapter 13 verse 1
“Arjuna said, “O Keshava, I wish to understand what are prakṛiti and puruṣha, and what are kṣhetra and kṣhetrajña? I also wish to know what is true knowledge, and what is the goal of this knowledge?”
The first 6 chapters of Bhagavat Gita is about Karma Yoga and second 6 chapters were about bhakti yoga and the last 6 chapters is going to be about Jnana yoga. Arjuna having heard in detail how to be a true devotee and gain mastery over action without expecting any particular fruit of action is interested in further knowledge of living a meaningful life with understanding of right way of life. Arjuna asks Bhagwan 4 questions:
1. What are prakriti and purusha?
2. What are Kshetra and kṣhetrajña?
3. What is true knowledge?
4. What is the goal of that knowledge?
