What happens when someone truly grasps the teaching of this chapter — kshara, akshara, and Purushottama — without confusion? Krishna says that person becomes 'sarvavid,' an all-knower. Not someone who has memorized every fact in the world, but someone who has understood the deepest reality behind everything.
And when that understanding is real, devotion follows naturally. The person worships Krishna with their entire being — 'sarvabhavena.' Like a child who runs to its mother and forgets everything else — no holding back, no second thoughts — that is the quality of this devotion.
Knowledge and bhakti are not separate paths here. They converge. The one who truly knows is also the one who truly loves. Understanding the supreme reality does not create distance — it creates closeness.
