1 Gita Sloka Every Day - Chapter 13 - Kshetra Kshetrajna Yoga - Sloka 34
Varadaraja Perumal |
Kshetra kshetragyoh evam antaram gyana chakshusha I
Bhuta prakriti moksham cha ye viduh yanti te param II sloka 34
क्षेत्र क्षेत्रज्ञः एवं अन्तारं ज्ञान चक्षुषा I
भूत प्रकृति मोक्षं च ये विदुः यान्ति ते परम् II श्लोक 34
Thy who perceive with the eye of wisdom this distinction between the kshetra and kshetrahjna and the deliverance of beings from the prakriti, they go to the supreme.
The doctor has to understand first the nature of the disease and the peculiarities of the patient before he can effect a radical cure. If either the ailment or the ailing person be not properly known, the treatment becomes ineffective to that extent. More earnest and more accurate ought to be the study of the kshetra and kshetrajna by the spiritual aspirant . The distinction between the two has to be clearly understood. Above all, the development of the intuitive faculty by means of a coordinated and devotionally tuned spiritual life is most imperative. For, the divine eye alone opens up the vistas to truth. Mere book learning leads the aspirant nowhere
Whereas the intuitive knowledge makes him constant with the reality. The dream and the delusionof the earth bound life is transcended. That brahman is the eternal verity is realised in samadhi. The prakriti appears and disappears on the substratum of the purusha. The goal of the jivatman is not to get entangles in the prakriti, but to make use of it with an attitude of detachment and gain reunion with the Paramatman
