what is tat paryam of Bhagvad Gita?

Besides removing the doubt in Arjuna's mind whether, or not, to go against his relatives and friends in the battle at Kurukshetra, to also give a clear vision on many other subjects.

For example, the Jnana and Karma cannot and should not be separated. Karma without jnana is like a blind walking and jnana without karma is a person without arms and legs.

Similarly, the salvation is possible either through the path of tyaga (renunciation) or through the path of sanyasa (surrender), but ultimately there is no difference in them. Note, here the reference to tyaga (renunciation) and sanyasa (surrender) is in the sense of Ch. 18 (Gita), i.e. forsaking or giving up the fruit of the action etc. and not the action itself.

In addition, even though the different darshanas (Vedanta, Samkhya, Nyaya etc.) appear to look at and deal with the ultimate reality (comprising Brahman, soul and samsara) differently, they basically in the end complement one another.
