Verse 18.70

Verse 18.70: “And those who will study this our Dialogue concerning Duty, by that ‘sacrifice’ (in the form) of knowledge, I shall be-such is My thought-(amply) worshipped. (1524)

Commentary called Jnaneshwari by Jnaneshwar:

And one who would recite without analysing the words of the stanzas the dialogue between yourself and myself, containing all-round (universal) knowledge; and which while getting developed gives birth to the philosophy leading towards liberation, will have kindled the blazing sacrificial fire of knowledge and given therein oblation of primeval Nescience and thereby propitiated Me, Supreme Soul, Oh you Good Talent. Whatever could be attained by the learned and the wise by research of the Gita teachings-that very thing would also be secured by those that simply repeat it (Gita). Thus the one simply reciting the Gita will secure the same fruit as the one knowing its interpretations does. The mother-the Gita teachings-makes no distinction between a knowing child and an infant.
