Commentary (टीका)
Krishna emphatically states that the destination of the path of knowledge and the path of action is identical. The person of true insight perceives the essential unity of both approaches. This verse is a profound statement of spiritual inclusivism, affirming that different paths suited to different temperaments all lead to the same ultimate reality.
