।।8.1।। अर्जुन ने कहा हे पुरुषोत्तम वह ब्रह्म क्या है अध्यात्म क्या है तथा कर्म क्या है और अधिभूत नाम से क्या कहा गया है तथा अधिदैव नाम से क्या कहा जाता है,
Hari OM! The previous six chapters known as the section on karma yoga or the science of the individual consciousness attaining communion with the ultimate consciousness by selfless actions, the method of acquiring spiritual wisdom was described. Now the next six chapters known as the bhakti yoga section or the yoga of devotion primarily describe the glories and greatness of the Supreme Lord. The words asakta-manah means an extremely attached mental disposition. Utilising this attachment a person takes complete shelter of the Supreme Lord understanding that Lord Krishna is the ultimate controller, the ultimate protector and the ultimate refuge of all living entities. Understanding this reality fully with asamsayam or free from doubt without any reservation is the special meaning here.
