Commentary (टीका)
This verse reveals the liberating power of true knowledge about God. Recognizing Krishna as unborn and beginningless, the supreme controller of all worlds, frees one from delusion and sin. The emphasis is on the quality of knowledge — it must be free from confusion (asammudha) — indicating that intellectual understanding must be coupled with conviction.
