Verse 13.2

श्री भगवानुवाचइदं शरीरं कौन्तेय क्षेत्रमित्यभिधीयते।एतद्यो वेत्ति तं प्राहुः क्षेत्रज्ञ इति तद्विदः।।13.2।।

śhrī-bhagavān uvācha idaṁ śharīraṁ kaunteya kṣhetram ity abhidhīyate etad yo vetti taṁ prāhuḥ kṣhetra-jña iti tad-vidaḥ

Meaning

The Blessed Lord said, "Yo, Arjuna, this body? It's the field, no cap. The person who knows this body? The sages call that person the field knower."

Commentary

Bro, Kshetra literally means field, like, a farming field. This body is called that 'cause it's where you reap what you sow, ya know? Pleasure, pain—it's all a harvest. We're talkin' physical, mental, *and* causal bodies—the whole shebang. It ain't just the physical body, fam. The knower of the field? That's the dude who knows the field and sees it as totally separate from himself. The 'those who know them'? Yeah, that's the sages, the OG wise ones.
