अध्याय-१५ पुरुषोत्तमयोग
Chapter - 15 PURUSHOTTAM YOGA
The concept of Kshetra and Kshetrajna is likely to give an idea of separate entities of both but in reality that is not so as like an Ashvatha tree. there is one common source wich supplies nourishment to its different branches and leaves, it is the all prevaling Supreme spirit which has split Himself in to Kshetra and Kshetrajna. This chapter shows cosmic unity and necessity of total surrender to its scheme.

छन्दांसि यस्य पर्णानि यस्तं वेद स वेदवित् ॥ १ ॥ Lord said :
"It is said that there is the Ashvattha tree (Tree called Peepal tree). Its roots are high in Heaven (because it is created by Brahman) and its branches are below. (Though its modes are transitory) it is imperishable. Its leaves are Vedic hyms. He who knows the significance of this allegory knows the Vedas."- 1
