╭ chapter thirteen

29

They alone see truly who see that all actions

are performed by prakriti, while the Self remains

unmoved. 30 When they see the variety of

creation rooted in that unity and growing out

of it, they attain fulfillment in Brahman.

31

This supreme Self is without a beginning,

undifferentiated, deathless. Though it dwells in

the body, Arjuna, it neither acts nor is touched

by action. 32 As akasha pervades the cosmos

but remains unstained, the Self can never be

tainted though it dwells in every creature.

33

As the sun lights up the world, the Self dwelling in

the field is the source of all light in the field. 34 Those

who, with the eye of wisdom, distinguish the field

from its Knower and the way to freedom from the

bondage of prakriti, attain the supreme goal.
