The Yoga of Divine Glories

Krishna reveals the liberating power of knowing His true nature. 'Yo mām vetti'—who knows Me. Not just knows about Me, but knows Me truly. What do they know? 'Ajam'—unborn, beyond birth and death. 'Anādim'—beginningless, without origin. 'Loka-maheśvaram'—the great Lord of the worlds. This isn't theoretical knowledge—it's recognition of Krishna's true nature. 'Asammūḍhaḥ'—not deluded, free from confusion. Among mortals (marty eṣu), such a person is freed (pramucyate) from all sins (sarva-pāpaiḥ). This shows the practical outcome: knowing Krishna's true nature liberates from sin. Not because sins are forgiven—because recognizing the Supreme transforms your relationship to everything, including sin.
