Chapter 4: Path of Knowledgeज्ञानकर्मसंन्यासयोग

4:24

Brahman is the offering, Brahman is the oblation poured into the fire of Brahman. Brahman is attained by one who is absorbed in Brahman in action.

Sanskrit

ब्रह्मार्पणं ब्रह्म हविर्ब्रह्माग्नौ ब्रह्मणा हुतम् | ब्रह्मैव तेन गन्तव्यं ब्रह्मकर्मसमाधिना ||

Transliteration

brahmārpaṇaṁ brahma havir brahmāgnau brahmaṇā hutam brahmaiva tena gantavyaṁ brahma-karma-samādhinā

Commentary

This verse describes the ultimate vision: everything is Brahman. The act, the instrument, the offering, the fire, and the goal are all one divine reality. Seeing this is true meditation.
