Random opening of a page:

Note all is said by Krishna, usually to Arjuna, his little buddy and student.
There are 18 Chapters, each with a theme.


As the mighty wind, which is everywhere, dwells eternally
in space; so know clearly that in the same manner,
all beings dwell in Me.

Ch 9 v6

Oh, Krishna is a physical incarnation of Vishnu...part of the trilogy of Brahma, Shiva and Vishnu.
Some say Brahman.

There is nothing that could exist without Me, whether moving or not moving.
Oh Arjuna, I support this entire Universe
with a single fragment of my Myself...




Ch 10 around verse 39

A different translation of Ch 10 v39

I am the seed of all creatures. There is nothing that
could exist without Me, whether moving or not moving.

I am the self, Arjuna! Abiding in the core of all beings,
I am the beginning, middle and end of all beings.


Ch10v20


They who meditate constantly remembering Me, striving
with strong determination, and honoring Me with devotion;
they are ever united with Me.


9v14


Those whose thoughts are directed to Me, whose prana, the breath
is channeled towards Me, are awakening or enlightening
each other, constantly speaking of Me, remaining content and delighted.



Ch10 v9

In the sky, if a thousand suns should rise at once,
such brilliance or splendor would hardly approach
that of the great self.

Ch11v12


"But those who worship the imperishable, the indefinable, the unmanifest,
the omnipresent, the unthinkable, the unchanging, the immovable, the eternal...
By controlling all the senses, maintaining even-mindedness towards everything,
and rejoicing in the welfare of all creatures, will surely attain Me."
-Ch 12 v3-4

O Supreme Lord, you are precisely what you declare yourself to be.
Now I desire to see your divine cosmic form, O greatest of persons.


Ch11 v3 Arjuna said this to Krishna


(Later, Krishna grants Arjuna divine vision and reveals His spectacular
unlimited form as the cosmic universe.)

11v19-

With infinite power, with no beginning, middle or end, with
numberless arms, the moon and the sun as Your eyes,
I see You, the blazing fire as Your mouth, scorching this universe
with Your radiance.


Another translation:

You are the origin without beginning, middle or end.
You have numberless arms, and the sun and moon are among Your great unlimited eyes.
By Your own radiance You are heating this entire universe.

The unmanifest is called the imperishable.
He is also called the supreme goal.
He, who attains that abode of Mine, never goes back.

Ch 8v21

Furthermore, O Arjuna, I am the generating seed of all existences.
There is no being-moving or unmoving-that can exist without Me.


Ch10v39
