Gyanam teham savigyanam idam vakshyami asheshatah I
Yat gyatva neha bhuyah anyat gyatvyam avashishyate II sloka 2
ज्ञानं तेऽहं सविज्ञानं इदं वiक्ष्यामि अशेषतः ।यत् ज्ञात्वा नेह भूयः अनयत् ज्ञातव्यं अवशिष्यते ।। श्लोक २
I shall teach you in full this knowledge combined with realization, which being known, nothing more here remains to be known.
Whatever is
comprehended with the aid of the senses, mind and intellect is jnana or knowledge. And vijnana is the direct grasp of the reality, come through self-discipline. The former is mediate and latter is immediate. The one is derived through sight and the other through insight. Tuition is needed for the one and intuition for the other. The former is proksha jnanam and the latter is aproksha jnanam. Endowed with both of these, the aspirant gets to know Brahman or truth in its entirety.
