Uitleg

Having described the field, Krishna turns to knowledge (jñāna), and here he does something unexpected. Instead of defining knowledge as information, he lists qualities of character, a list that continues for several verses. He begins with modesty, lack of hypocrisy, non-violence, forbearance, straightforwardness, serving one's teacher, cleanliness of body and mind, steadiness and mastery of oneself. The message is that true knowledge is not separate from how one lives. Understanding the field and its knower requires a transformed life, not only a sharp intellect.
