4-36

अपि चेदसि पापेभ्यः सर्वेभ्यः पापकृत्तमः ।
सर्वम् ज्ञानप्लवेनैव वृजिनम् सन्तरिष्यसि ॥ ३६ ॥

api cedasi pApebhyaH sarvebhyaH pApakRttamaH |
sarvam jJAnaplavenaiva vRjinam santariSyasi || 36 ||

अपि चेत् [api cet] Even if असि [asi] you are पापकृत्तमः [pApakRttamaH] the most miserable पापेभ्यः [pApebhyaH] among all those who have done wrong, सन्तरिष्यसि [santariSyasi] you will cross over सर्वम् वृजिनम् [sarvam vRjinam] all the misery ज्ञानप्लवेन एव [jJAnaplavena eva] by the boat of knowledge alone.

Even if you have done more wrong than all other wrong-doers, you will cross over the entire sea of your past wrong-doings by the knowledge of the Self alone. It’s like crossing the ocean in a ship.
