Bhagavad Gita 13.27 states that all beings, whether moving or unmoving, are a combination of the field of activities (the body) and the knower of the field (the soul).
* **The Field of Activities (*Kshetra*):** This refers to the material body, which is composed of insentient material energy.
* **The Knower of the Field (*Kshetrajna*):** This refers to the eternal soul, which is the source of consciousness.
According to these teachings, consciousness serves as the evidence of the soul's presence; therefore, wherever consciousness is found, the soul must also be present. This explains how even non-moving entities, such as plants, are considered to have life.
Would you like to explore more about the concept of the "knower of the field" in other chapters of the Bhagavad Gita?
