💡 Meaning

The state reached by the followers of Sankhya is also reached by the followers of Yoga. Therefore, he who sees Sankhya and Yoga as one, truly sees.

🔍 Deep Interpretation

Saint Dnyaneshwar emphasizes that the ultimate destination reached by those following the path of knowledge (Sankhya) is the same as that reached by those following the path of selfless action (Yoga). Though the methods differ—one focusing on intellectual realization and the other on detached performance of duties—the spiritual fruit is identical. A person who perceives this fundamental unity possesses true wisdom.

🎯 Practical Application

Whether you are working professionally or meditating, if both are done with a sense of duty and without attachment to results, they lead to the same inner growth. Example: Serving society honestly is as spiritual as formal prayer.

📌 Context

Lord Krishna explains the equality of the path of knowledge (Sankhya) and the path of action (Yoga).

💡 Meaning

Therefore, O Arjuna, do not be deceived by this delusion. Now, cast aside this sorrow and perform your rightful duty.

🔍 Deep Interpretation

In this verse, Dnyaneshwar Maharaj emphasizes that 'Moha' (delusion) acts as a deceptive force that blinds an individual to their true purpose. Arjuna's grief is portrayed not as compassion, but as a mental trap. The instruction to 'discard grief' is a call for emotional mastery. By telling Arjuna to do what is 'Ucita' (right/proper), the text highlights that one's social and moral obligations (Dharma) must take precedence over personal emotional fluctuations.

🎯 Practical Application

This verse is applicable when facing a conflict between personal feelings and professional responsibilities. For example, a judge must deliver a fair verdict based on law, even if the defendant is an acquaintance, by setting aside personal 'Moha'.

📌 Context

Saint Dnyaneshwar explains Krishna's advice to Arjuna to abandon his emotional delusion and perform his righteous duty.

💡 Meaning

Therefore, due to the root of ignorance, this web of doubt has spread powerfully within the heart.

🔍 Deep Interpretation

Saint Dnyaneshwar emphasizes that 'Ajnana' (spiritual ignorance) is the root cause of all mental conflicts and doubts. He compares doubt to a 'web' (Jale) that entangles the human heart. This web is not weak; it is 'Prabala' (mighty), meaning it has the power to cloud one's judgment and prevent spiritual progress. To overcome this, one must cultivate knowledge, which acts as the light to dispel the darkness of ignorance.

🎯 Practical Application

Doubt often stems from a lack of understanding. For example, if you are unsure about a new technology, you might hesitate to use it. By learning how it works (gaining knowledge), you remove the doubt and can use it effectively.

📌 Context

Saint Dnyaneshwar explains that doubt is a product of ignorance residing in the heart.
