This chapter is called the Royal Knowledge and Royal Secret, as Krishna imparts the Royal knowledge and reveals a Royal secret to Arjuna. He says, He pervades everything in an unmanifested form, yet not limited by them. He compares the wise to the ignorant and talks about their goals and devotion and says the wise with the Supreme knowledge seek the Self, while the ignorant disregarding the Self seek to fulfil lower desires and, therefore, they go through endless cycles of birth and death. He says He dissolves everything at the end of the eon, and everything is born again out of their own nature and karma when a new eon begins.
