Chapter XV · Śloka 20
इति गुह्यतमं शास्त्रम्
इदमुक्तं मयानघ ।
एतद्बुद्ध्वा बुद्धिमान्स्यात्
कृतकृत्यश्च भारत ॥
इदमुक्तं मयानघ ।
एतद्बुद्ध्वा बुद्धिमान्स्यात्
कृतकृत्यश्च भारत ॥
iti guhyatamaṃ śāstram
idam uktaṃ mayānagha |
etad buddhvā buddhimān syāt
kṛta-kṛtyaś ca bhārata ||
idam uktaṃ mayānagha |
etad buddhvā buddhimān syāt
kṛta-kṛtyaś ca bhārata ||
Thus I have declared this most secret teaching, O sinless one. Knowing this, one becomes wise and accomplished, O Bhārata.
Kṛṣṇa closes the chapter by affirming that the Puruṣottama Yoga is the most esoteric of all doctrines — the crown jewel of scriptural knowledge. Understanding this teaching alone fulfills all purposes of human existence; the knower of the Supreme Person lacks nothing and has attained everything.
