Om Kshetrajnaya Namah।

Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Gītā Chapter 13 — the locus classicus<br> The entire 13th chapter of the Bhagavad Gītā is dedicated to this theme. ‘"Idaṃ śarīraṃ kaunteya kṣetram ity abhidhīyate / etad yo vetti taṃ prāhuḥ kṣetrajña iti tad-vidaḥ"‘ — "This body, O Kaunteya, is called the field; one who knows it is called the Knower of the Field." The supreme Kṣetrajña is Viṣṇu Himself, who knows every field (every body, every mind, every being) simultaneously and completely. Individual souls are ‘kṣetrajñas’ in a limited sense; Viṣṇu is the universal Kṣetrajña.
