The Yoga of Knowledge

Krishna reveals Buddhi Yoga's ultimate promise. Those who are 'buddhi-yuktāḥ' (wisdom-endowed) and 'manīṣiṇaḥ' (truly wise), having abandoned attachment to fruits of action, become 'janma-bandha-vinirmuktāḥ'—freed from the bondage cycle. They attain 'padam anāmayam'—the state free from suffering. This 'bondage' isn't just theological rebirth; it's the psychological trap: craving→action→result→craving. Never satisfied, always seeking future happiness. When you act from wisdom, not outcome-dependency, you break free. You're 'anāmayam'—liberated from the disease of perpetual wanting. This freedom is available now through wisdom-led, result-detached living.
