हे भरतवंशोद्भव अर्जुन ! जैसे एक ही सूर्य सम्पूर्ण संसारको प्रकाशित करता है, ऐसे ही क्षेत्री (क्षेत्रज्ञ, आत्मा) सम्पूर्ण क्षेत्रको प्रकाशित करता है। देह के पदार्थ बदलते रहते हैं, पर जानने का बोध बना रहता है। यह पंक्ति उसी अंतर को कहती है — जो बदलता है वह आवरण है, जो जानता है वह निरंतर है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
