Having validated all forms of sacrifice, Krishna introduces a hierarchy. He declares: O chastiser of enemies (parantapa), the sacrifice of Knowledge (jñāna-yajñaḥ) is superior (śreyān) to the sacrifice composed merely of material possessions or wealth (dravya-mayād yajñāj). Why? He gives the ultimate philosophical reason: Because absolutely all actions in their entirety (sarvaṃ karmākhilaṃ), O Partha, eventually culminate, dissolve, and reach their absolute perfection inside Knowledge (jñāne parisamāpyate).
