Shreyaan dravya-mayad yajnaj jnana-yajnah parantapa, sarvam karmakhilam partha jnane parisamapyate

O destroyer of the enemy, the sacrifice of knowledge is greater than any material sacrifice. All action, O Partha, in its entirety culminates in knowledge.

  • Knowledge is the supreme form of sacrifice
  • All forms of action ultimately resolve into gnosis
  • Material offerings are stepping stones toward wisdom
