I agree to this to an extent, but even ksatrias, once they wish to transcend

that material varnic position, will need to go deeply into trancsendental

knowledge. Actualy that is not quite right, if one has captured the essence

of spiritual life, service and surrender to a pure devotee, then he will get

mercy from that person in the form of pure understanding, which obviates the

need for intense study.

 

So yes I would agree, if that ksatria understands the process of surrender,

then he would certainly not need to study those books in depth.
