To conclude, Shree Krishna reveals to Arjun that the most confidential-knowledge is to abandon all variations of religiosity and only surrender to God. However, if we get driven by pride and act according to our impulses, we will fail. Then, by His grace, we will easily overcome all difficulties and obstacles. We must take His shelter, think of Him, dedicate all our actions to Him, and make Him our ultimate goal. Thus, He concludes that only through loving devotion one can unravel the secrets of the Supreme Divine Personality. He then reminds Arjun that God dwells in the hearts of all living creatures and directs their movement according to their karmas. He adds that even these perfect yogis find engaging in bhakti transcendental to complete their Brahman-realization. Then, He gives a similar analysis for the intellect, resolve or steadfast will, and happiness.įurther in this chapter, Shree Krishna portrays in detail the attributes of those who have attained perfection in spirituality and realized the Brahman. He describes the kinds of knowledge, types of actions, and categories of performers based on the three gunas or modes of nature. Shree Krishna then explains the reasons for the difference in the motives and actions of individuals.

They are ever detached from the results, thus, free from the karmic reactions of their actions. However, due to their purified intellect, the enlightened do not perceive themselves to be the doer nor the enjoyer of their actions.

He declares that those who see themselves as the only cause of their works are ignorant. He describes each of these factors in relation to the three gunas. Shree Krishna gives Arjun a detailed analysis of the five factors that contribute to action, the three constituents of action, and the three factors that inspire action. One should undertake actions only as a matter of duty without any attachment to their fruits.

He declares that one should never renounce the prescribed acts of duty, sacrifice, charity, penance, etc., as these aid in the purification of even the wisest souls. However, Shree Krishna recommends another type of renunciation. And a tyāgī is one who acts without selfish desires for the rewards of his actions. It starts with Arjun requesting Shree Krishna to educate him on renunciation and explain the difference between these two Sanskrit words sanyās (renunciation of actions) and tyāg (renunciation of desires), as both come from the root words that mean “to abandon.” A sanyāsī (monk) is one who has renounced family and social life to practice sādhanā (spiritual discipline). This last chapter of the Bhagavad Gita is the longest as it explicates many subjects.
