Bhagavad Gita – Yoga of knowledge (Chapters 13-18). How is it possible that Krishna, after saying to Arjuna (Bg. 9.1), “I shall impart to you this most confidential knowledge and realization” then says (Bg. 14.1): “Again I shall declare to you this supreme wisdom, the best of all knowledge, knowing which all the sages have attained the supreme perfection”? Is more knowledge than that given in the “bhakti section” (Chapters 7-12) required, or is a repetition of the knowledge required? After discussing the processes of yoga in Chapters 1-6 and after presenting the goal of all yoga processes -bhakti – in chapters 7-12, Krishna reveals how this goal can be achieved. After a section about karma (action) and a section about bhakti (devotion), we come to a section about jnana (knowledge). Please prepare yourself for receiving knowledge, which will help you go home, back to Godhead.
