Rāja-Vidyā Rāja-Guhya Yoga (राजविद्या राजगुह्य योग) — The Yoga of Royal Knowledge and Royal Secret
बहूनां जन्मनामन्ते” ज्ञानवान्ः मां प्रपद्यते । वासुदेव: सर्वमिति स महात्मा सुदुर्लभ:
bahūnāṁ janmanām ante jñānavān māṁ prapadyate | vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti sa mahātmā sudurlabhaḥ ||
В конце многих рождений человек, наделённый истинным знанием, предаётся Мне, постигая: «Васудева — всё». Такая великая душа — чьё прозрение завершается всецелым прибежищем и преданностью — встречается чрезвычайно редко.

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that mature spiritual knowledge culminates in surrender: after many lifetimes of growth, the truly wise recognize Vāsudeva (Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme) as all-pervading reality and take refuge in Him; such integrated wisdom-and-devotion is rare.
Within the Bhīṣma Parva battlefield dialogue (the Bhagavad Gītā), the Lord explains to Arjuna the culmination of spiritual pursuit: seekers progress over many births, and the highest realization expresses itself as wholehearted surrender to Vāsudeva as the all.
