Chapter 7<\/a><\/p>\n << Chapter 7 verse 29<\/a><\/p>\n sAdhibhUthAdhidhaivam mAm sAdhiyagyam cha yE vidhu: |<\/em> yE – aisvaryArthis (those who desire worldly wealth) aisvaryArthis (those who desire worldly wealth) should know me as the one with the qualities of adhi bhUtha and adhi dhaiva [these are explained in 8th chapter]; (like the two others [kaivalyArthis (those who desire self-enjoyment) and bhagavath kainkaryArthis (those who desire kainkaryam to bhagavAn)]), they should know (me) as the one with the quality of adhi yagya; these three types of people (who are engaged in me to fulfil their desire) should know me as the one to be remembered while shedding their bodies (to attain their desired goal) [at the time of death].<\/p>\n ‘Those, the others, (have to) know Me as Adhibh\u016bta[1. For Mah\u0101-yaj\u00f1\u0101s, read note 2 for verse 3-8<\/a>.], as Adhidaiva[2. For Mah\u0101-yaj\u00f1\u0101s, read note 2 for verse 3-8<\/a>.], and as Adhiyaj\u00f1a; and all of them (have to) know Me, at time of death, mind-collected.’<\/span><\/p>\n The plural pronoun \u2018ye\u2019 = those, the others,<\/em> is repeated in this verse, in order to show that the pronoun does not relate to the votaries already referred to (in verse 29<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n Though a relative pronoun has invariably the force of referring back to a previously noted subject, yet the pronoun in this verse, viz.<\/em>, \u2018ye\u2019 (those) has an independent sense, inasmuch as it is indicative of another class of votaries viz.<\/em>, those who seek fortune, the ai\u015bvary-\u0101rthi<\/em>, to whom the knowledge of Me as identified with Adhib\u016bta<\/em>, and as identified with Adhidaiva<\/em> are requisites. To him therefore, the preceding verse has no allusion.<\/span><\/p>\n The knowledge of Me as identified with Adhi-yaj\u00f1a<\/em>, is a knowledge which all the three classes of God-worshippers have to acquire, in common; for it is evident that the obligation to perform the Mah\u0101-yaj\u00f1\u0101s[1. For Mah\u0101-yaj\u00f1\u0101s, read note 2 for verse 3-8<\/a>.] etc., in the shape of daily and casual duties, devolves equally on all of them.<\/span><\/p>\n All of them have also, in common, to know Me (i.e.<\/em>, remember Me) at the time of departure or death, the character of that memory of Me being in accordance with the ideal which each class of the votaries (mentioned) has prescribed to itself as its goal.<\/span><\/p>\n That the class who \u2018strive for deliverance from dotage<\/a> and death\u2019 (verse 29<\/a> ante<\/em>) comes in for the above-said memory-requisite at time of death, is indicated by the conjunctive particle \u2018cha\u2019 meaning \u2018and\u2019 (all of them).<\/span><\/p>\n The conclusion from the tenor of the verses above (viz<\/em>., 29<\/a> and 30) is that it is a requisite for the j\u00f1\u0101ni<\/em> (the God-sage also, \u2014compatible with the ideal of his own Goal\u2014 to know Me as identified with Adhi-yaj\u00f1a<\/em>, and have My memory at the time of death.[2.
