26: THE THREE SUPERLATIVE SECRETS OF THE GITA
The Lord mentions ‘the superlative secret’ (guhya-tamam) three times in the Gita:
IX -1: idaM tu te guhyatamam pravakshhyAmyanasUnave /
jnAnaM vijnAnasahitaM yad jnAtvA mokshhyase ashubhAt //
XV – 20: iti guhyatamaM shAstraM idamuktaM mayAnagha /
Etat buddhvA buddhimAn syAt kRRitakRRityashca bhArata //
XVIII – 64: sarvaguhyatamaM bhUyaH shRRiNu me paramaM vacaH /
ishhTo.asi me dRRiDhamiti tato vakshhyAmi te hitaM //
We shall take these up in the next three pages:
