Krishna announces a shift: what he has explained so far is analytical knowledge (Sāṅkhya); now hear the yog of intellect, by which you shall be freed from the bondage of karma. The chapter's second, more practical half begins here.

✨ Devotional Takeaway:Krishna explicitly marks a shift here — from explaining what is true to teaching how to actually live by it.
