Chapter X · Śloka 3
यो मामजमनादिं च वेत्ति लोकमहेश्वरम् |
असम्मूढः स मर्त्येषु सर्वपापैः प्रमुच्यते ||
असम्मूढः स मर्त्येषु सर्वपापैः प्रमुच्यते ||
yo mām ajam anādiṃ ca vetti loka-maheśvaram |
asammūḍhaḥ sa martyeṣu sarva-pāpaiḥ pramucyate ||
asammūḍhaḥ sa martyeṣu sarva-pāpaiḥ pramucyate ||
One who knows Me as the unborn, beginningless, the great Lord of all the worlds — that person, among mortals, is undeluded and freed from all sins.
True knowledge of Krishna's nature — as beginningless, uncaused, and sovereign — dissolves karmic bondage. It is not ritual purity but ontological clarity that liberates.
