The nature of the wisdom and realisation
Description
The Lord instructs Arjuna in the Gita on the nature of jnana or wisdom and vijnana or realisation.

This perhaps is why man's propensity to do evil far exceeds his propensity to do good. The Lord explains that He has two types of nature, one immanent (prakriti) and the other transcendental (purusha).

His transcendental form takes the form of individual souls. Read more at: https://www.deccanherald.com/content/424881/nature-wisdom-realisation.html
