Translation

BG 8.1-2: Arjun said: O Supreme Lord, what is Brahman (Absolute Reality), what is adhyātma (the individual soul), and what is karma? What is said to be adhibhūta, and who is said to be Adhidaiva? Who is Adhiyajña in the body and how is He the Adhiyajña? O Krishna, how are You to be known at the time of death by those of steadfast mind?

Commentary

At the conclusion of Chapter seven, Shree Krishna had introduced terms like Brahman, adhibhūta, adhiyātma, adhidaiva, and adhiyajña.  Arjun is curious to learn more about these terms, consequently he raises seven questions in these two verses.  Six of these questions relate to the terms mentioned by Shree Krishna.  The seventh question is about the time of death.  Shree Krishna had Himself raised the topic in verse 7.30.  Arjun now wishes to know how one can remember God at the moment of death.
