Uitleg

Krishna acknowledges that people come to see the self (ātman) by different routes. Some do so through meditation, perceiving the self within by means of the purified mind. Others reach it through sāṃkhya, here meaning the discipline of discerning knowledge, the analysis of what is self and what is not. Still others come to it through the yoga of action, acting without attachment. The verse is generous. It does not rank these approaches but presents them as different doors to the same insight, suited to different temperaments. This openness is characteristic of the Gita.
