श्रद्धावाँल्लभते ज्ञानं तत्परः संयतेन्द्रियः।ज्ञानं लब्ध्वा परां शान्तिमचिरेणाधिगच्छति ॥

Teachers usually read this idea across several verses together, one shared reflection covers the whole unit.

• 4.34Know that the wise who have realized the truth will instruct thee in that knowledge through long prostration, supplication, and service.
• 4.35Knowing that thou shalt not, O Arjuna, again be deluded like this; and by that thou shalt see all beings in thyself and also in me.
• 4.36Even if thou art the most sinful of all sinners, yet thou shalt surely cross over all sins by the raft of knowledge.
• 4.37As the blazing fire reduces fuel to ashes, O Arjuna, so does the fire of knowledge reduce all actions to ash.
• 4.38Verily, there is no purifier in this world like knowledge. He who is perfected in Yoga finds it within the Self in due time.

• 4.39The one who is full of faith, devoted to it, and has subdued their senses obtains this knowledge; and upon obtaining the knowledge, they attain the supreme peace immediately.

• 4.40The ignorant, the faithless, and the doubting self go to destruction; there is neither this world nor the other, nor happiness for the doubting one.
• 4.41He who has renounced actions through Yoga, whose doubts have been dispelled by knowledge, and who is self-possessed—such a one is not bound by actions, O Arjuna.
• 4.42Therefore, with the sword of knowledge (of the Self), cut asunder the doubt of the self, born of ignorance, residing in your heart, and take refuge in Yoga. Arise, O Arjuna!
