Sanskrit
इति क्षेत्रं तथा ज्ञानं ज्ञेयं चोक्तं समासतः । मद्भक्त एतद्विज्ञाय मद्भावायोपपद्यते ॥
iti kṣetraṃ tathā jñānaṃ jñeyaṃ coktaṃ samāsataḥ madbhakta etad vijñāya madbhāvāyopapadyate
Translation
Thus the Field, Wisdom and the Object of Wisdom, have been briefly told. My devotee, thus knowing, enters into My Being.
Annie Besant · The Bhagavad-Gita, translated by Annie Besant (4th ed., 1922) — Wikisource · Public Domain
Explanation
This verse closes the chapter’s opening section with the same three terms Arjuna asked about in verse 1 — kshetra, jnana, jneya — now stated to have been covered “briefly.” “My devotee, thus knowing, enters into My Being” quietly folds bhakti back in as the payoff of the entire analytical exercise, echoing verse 11’s inclusion of devotion inside the definition of jnana: the knowledge isn’t presented as an end in itself but as what makes union with Krishna possible.
