Bhagvad Gita image 1 no-watermark
(49) Beyond un-manifested and manifested, there is something else that always remains unmanifested. It is imperishable. In this, all abide and established. This, the ultimate unmanifested is the highest goal, reaching this, they don’t manifest ever again. It is Kṛṣṇa’s abode.
(50) I am the father, mother, and grandfather, the supporter of the world. I’m the origin, dissolution, witnesses, and the imperishable seed. I’m heat, herb, and rain I’m the immortality, death, sat-asat. I’m three Veda, ritual action, sacrifice, mantra, and the pious syllable Aum.
(51) Kṛṣṇa – There is no end to my extent, I am the ātman in all beings, am the beginning, middle, end of them. I’m the mind and consciousness in all beings. I am Agni, and of mountain peaks, Meru, among immovable, I am Himalaya. I’m knowledge. I’m time, birth, and death.
(52) I’m prosperity, memory, wisdom, patience, forgiveness. I’m the seed of all and there is nothing, movable or immovable, that can exist without me. There’s no end to my divine manifestation. Why such details? Just know that I support this world pervading it with a fraction of myself.
Ksetra, Ksetrajna, Prakrit, Purush
(53) What is Prakriti, Purusha, field, the knower of field, knowledge, and what is to be known? Ṛṣiṣ have sung in various hymns about the field, its nature & origin, and the nature of its modification. It is also mentioned conclusively in well-structured Brahmansutra.
(54) This body is called the field (kṣetra) he who knows this knower. I’m (Kṛṣṇa) the knower of the field in all types of the fields. Knowledge about these two is knowledge to be known.
(55) Five elements, ego, intellect, unmanifested (Prakriti), ten senses, one heart, five objects of sense, and, desire, hatred, pleasure, pain, body, consciousness, fortitude. This is how kṣetra is with its modifications.
(56) Humility, integrity, non-violence, patience, simplicity, service to guru, purity, steadfastness, self-control, indifference to objects of senses, absence of ego, perception of evil in birth, death, old age, sickness, pain, non-attachment, absence of affection to wife and son, home, etc., equanimity in desirable and undesirable happenings, unwavering devotion to me (Kṛṣṇa), one-pointed Yog, abiding in solitary places, distaste for assembly, being established in the knowledge of the highest reality, looking at the highest reality from a philosophical point of view only – all this is knowledge and other than this is not-knowledge, ignorance, conscience.
(59) Both Purusha and Prakriti are ancient, beginning-less. Modifications and guna are born out of Prakriti, and, Prakriti is instrumental in the cause, effect, and sense of I-am-doing this. Purusha is termed as the cause for the experience of pleasure and pain. Purusha, residing in Prakriti, experiences guna born out of Prakriti. This is the cause of births in good and evil wombs. However, the highest Purusha in this body is spectator, perimeter, supporter, experience, and param ātman itself.
