Even if thou art the most sinful of all sinners, yet thou shalt verily cross all sins by the raft of knowledge.

Even if you were the worst of all sinners, you would cross over all wrongdoing by the raft of knowledge alone.

Krishna offers a powerful assurance. Even someone who has done more wrong than all other wrongdoers can cross the whole sea of evil by the raft of knowledge (jñāna). The image of a boat crossing a river or ocean is common in Indian thought for liberation. The verse is meant to give hope: no past, however dark, places a person beyond the reach of transforming understanding. It may also answer Arjuna's fear of the sin of killing, by showing that knowledge has power greater than any burden of action.
