Verse 104.19
क्षेत्राणि संयम केवलानि दिव्यं मानुषं यं च ब्राह्मं क्षेत्रं ।
स सर्वमूलक्षेत्रबन्धनात् प्रमुक्तो क्षेत्रज्ञो तायि प्रवुच्चति तथत्वा ॥ १९ ॥
kṣetrāṇi saṃyama kevalāni divyaṃ mānuṣaṃ yaṃ ca brāhmaṃ kṣetraṃ |
sa sarvamūlakṣetrabandhanāt pramukto kṣetrajño tāyi pravuccati tathatvā || 19 ||
He who has control over all fields, of devas, of men and of Brahma, and is freed from every bond that lies at the root of the fields, such an one is truly called a knower of the field. (19)
