Vertaling

By that very former practice he is borne on in spite of himself. Even he who merely wishes to know Yoga goes beyond the Brahmic word.

Uitleg

The force of earlier practice carries such a person forward almost involuntarily, as though pulled along by a current. Krishna adds that even one who merely wishes to know yoga goes beyond śabda-brahman, the Veda understood as words and ritual formulas. The sincere desire to know is itself powerful enough to lift a person above a purely external religion. The verse honours the beginner's longing, treating even curiosity about yoga as a real step on the path.
