Explanation
Vibhuti Yoga is not just a list. It trains the mind to see Krishna everywhere. When perception changes, devotion becomes less fragile and more unwavering.
Read the traditional 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.
