abode, the refuge, the friend, the origin, the dissolution, the foundation, the substratum, and the imperishable
seed. (See also 7.10 and 10.39) (9.18)
I give heat, I send as well as withhold the rain, I am
immortality as well as death, I am also both the Sat and the Asat, O Arjuna. (Brahman is everything, See also

The knowers of the three Vedas and the drinkers of the
juice of Soma (or devotion), whose sins are cleansed, worship Me by Yajna for gaining heaven. As a result of
their good Karma they go to heaven and enjoy celestial sense pleasures. (9.20)
