Passage 11

On the Gītā: 7.16

Tap any word for its meaning.

In plain words

Of these four kinds of devotees, the ārta, the arthārthī, the jijñāsu and the jñāni, the first three, the ārta, the arthārthī and the jijñāsu, think of God as remote from them and pray to Him. The jñāni, however, is not so: he knows God directly, as the very form of his own Ātma, and serves Him. Such a one abides always established in God. Those of the first three paths named above use God as a means of gaining what each of them wishes for.
