| 25. Yet others,
not knowing thus worship, having heard from others ; they, too, cross beyond
death, adhering to what they heard.But there are yet others, who, not able
to know the Self described above by any one of the several methods already
pointed out, learn from others; from acharyas or teachers who tell them
Do thou thus meditate upon this ; they then engage in worship, i.e they
contemplate the idea in full faith, Even they cross beyond death, i.e beyond
samsara which is associated with death even they whose best equipment when
commencing to tread the path of moksha consists in what they have heard,
i e who solely depend upon the authority of others instructions and are
themselves ignorant. How much more so, then, those who can independently
appreciate evidence and discriminate. Nothing exists outside the Self. The
nowledge of the identity of Kshetrajna with the Isvaraof the individual
soul with the Lordas taught in xiii. 2 has been spoken of in xiii. 12 as
the means to moksha. For what reason is it so. The Lord proceeds to explain
the reason. |
