Bhagavad Gita Chapter 11 - Lesson 1

Powerful Cognition

Kṛṣṇa reveals Himself as not just an Incarnation but as also the very source from which everything flows. He is the Source of all sources, the Cause of all causes, the source of all the worlds and Universes.

evaṁetadyathāttha tvam ātmānaṁ parameśvara | draṣṭumicchāmi te rūpam aiśvaraṁ puruṣottama

O Parameśvara, Lord Supreme, though You are here before Me as You have declared Yourself, I wish to see the Divine Cosmic Form of Yours, Puruṣottama, Supreme Being.

Nara, the man, meets Narayana, the Divine.

manyase yadi tacchakyaṁ mayā draṣṭumiti prabho | yogeśvara tato me tvaṁ darśayātmānamavyayam

O Prabhu, my Lord, if You think it is possible for me to see Your Cosmic Form, then please, O Yogeśvara, Lord of Yoga and all mystic power, kindly show me that Imperishable Universal Self.
