In this shloka, Lord Krishna concludes the Discourse on the Gunas by describing the Prize of transcendence. He states that when the dehi (embodied soul) atitya (transcends) these trin gunan (three modes) which are deha-samudbhavan (born of the body), it is vimuktah (freed) from janma-mrtyu-jara-dukhaih (birth, death, old age, and sorrow) and asnute (enjoys) amrtam—immortality. This analysis presents the Ultimate Freedom of the soul. It tells us that the Goal of human life is to become Guna-atita—beyond the Gunas. By Realizing that the soul is Independent of the material body and its qualities, one Breaks the Cycle of Samsara. In a religious sense, this shloka provides the Definition of Immortality. It is not Life that never ends in a body, but the State of being Untouched by the Limitations of the body. Krishna is Assuring Arjuna that the Pain of the war and the Fear of death are only relevant as long as one is Bound to the Gunas. This verse provides the Logic for the Pursuit of the Supreme. The detailed interpretation emphasizes that amrtam (nectar/immortality) is the Inheritance of every soul that Overcomes its Identification with matter. For a devotee, this is a Promise of Absolute Peace. This shloka thus serves as a Climax, showing the Result of the Knowledge provided in this chapter. It confirms that Liberation is a Reality achievable even while living in the body.
