| Yea!
knowing Me the source of all, by Me all creatures wrought, The
wise in spirit cleave to Me, into My Being brought; Hearts fixed on
Me; breaths breathed to Me; praising Me, each to each, So have they
happiness and peace, with pious thought and speech; And unto
these- thus serving well, thus loving ceaselessly I give a mind of
perfect mood, whereby they draw to Me; And, all for love
of them, within their darkened souls I dwell, And, with bright rays
of wisdom's lamp, thei ignorance dispel.
Arjuna. Yes! Thou art Parabrahm! The High
Abode! The Great Purification! Thou art God Eternal, All-creating,
Holy, First, Without beginning! Lord of Lords and Gods! Declared by
all the Saints- by Narada, Vyasa Asita, and Devalas; And
here Thyself declaring unto me! What Thou hast said now know I to be
truth, O Kesava! that neither gods nor men Nor demons
comprehend Thy mystery Made manifest, Divinest!
Thou Thyself Thyself alone dost know,
Maker Supreme! Master of all the living! Lord of Gods! King of the
Universe! To Thee alone Belongs to tell the heavenly excellence Of
those perfections wherewith Thou dost fill These worlds of Thine;
Pervading, Immanent! How shall I learn, Supremest Mystery! To know
Thee, though I muse continually?
