।।3.2।।अतो व्यामिश्रवाक्येन मां मोहयसि इव इति मे प्रतिभाति तथा हि आत्मावलोकनसाधनभूतायाः सर्वेन्द्रियव्यापारोपरतिरूपाया ज्ञाननिष्ठायाः तद्विपर्ययरूपं कर्म साधनं तद् एव कुरु इति वाक्यं विरुद्धं व्यामिश्रम् एव तस्माद् एकम् अमिश्ररूपं वाक्यं वद येन वाक्येन अहम् अनुष्ठेयरूपं निश्चित्य आत्मनः श्रेयः प्राप्नुयाम्।
3.2 Conseently, it appears to me as if 'you confuse me with statements that seem to contradict each other.' For, firm devotion to knowledge which forms the means for the vision of the self and which is of the nature of stopping the operations of the senses on the one hand, and on the other exhortation to action which is of a nature opposite to it, i.e., knowledge, as a means to the same vision of that Atman - these statements are contradictory and confusing. Therefore tell me clearly the path following which I can take a determined course and win the Supreme Being.
