Word-by-Word Meaning
Explanation & Commentary
Krishna names the reward of truly grasping His vibhūti (divine glories) and yoga (His mysterious power of manifestation). The crucial word is tattvataḥ — 'in truth,' in essence — not as mere intellectual information but as living conviction that the Divine pervades and sustains all.
Whoever knows this becomes established in avikampa yoga — 'unshakable union.' The image is of a flame that does not flicker, a mind no longer disturbed by the winds of fortune. Krishna seals it with 'there is no doubt' (nātra saṃśayaḥ). When one genuinely perceives the Divine in everything, the heart finds a stability that no circumstance can shake — for it rests not on shifting things but on their eternal Source.
💡 Key Takeaway
Truly seeing the Divine in all things steadies the heart into an unshakable inner union.
