Kshetragna

Kshetragna is a term from Indian philosophy, particularly in the Bhagavad Gita, that refers to the "knower of the field"—the individual consciousness or soul. It symbolizes the part of a person that perceives, experiences, and is aware, distinct from the physical body and mind. Just as a person observes the activities happening in a field, the Kshetragna observes the body and thoughts but remains unaffected by them. It represents the true self that witnesses life’s experiences, providing a deeper understanding of identity beyond physical and mental functions.
