prapatti in Bhagavad Gita

[Guest guest]

Krishna,

 

Though without a doubt the charama sloka (Gita 18.66)

is perhaps the only explicit statement of prapatti as

an independent means to moksha, is not prapatti implicit

throughout, at least according to our acharyas? This

is what I gathered from reading a few stray passages of

some explanations of Ramanuja's Gitabhashya by latter

day acharyas, so my knowledge is by no means thorough.

 

However, the statement "mAm eva ye prapadyante mayAm

etAm taranti te" (those indeed who seek refuge in Me

cross over this mAya) is understood as referring to

prapatti in all its aspects, is it not?
