Chapter 13 verse 13
“I shall now reveal to you that which ought to be known, and by knowing which, one attains immortality. It is the beginning less Brahman, which lies beyond existence and non-existence.”
Arjuna
had asked the question- what is true knowledge at the beginning of this
chapter. Bhagwan wants to now unequivocally answer that question. He starts by
perking the interest up by stating that Brahman is both without beginning and
end, it is also beyond existence and non-existence. We had earlier seen that
Bhagwan is the personal form of that entity for devotees or Bhaktas; paramatma
is the Supreme entity all pervading both in the universe and inside as our
individual soul and Brahman is the Supreme entity which is in the formless,
attribute less form known to the wise only-Jnanis. The Supreme Lord is
accessible to all kinds of human states the way we approach him- through
knowledge, devotion, discipline or selfless effort.
