वक्तुमर्हस्यशेषेण दिव्या ह्यात्मविभूतयः। याभिर्विभूतिभिर्लोकानिमांस्त्वं व्याप्य तिष्ठसि।।10.16।।
Transliteration
vaktum arhasyaśheṣheṇa divyā hyātma-vibhūtayaḥ yābhir vibhūtibhir lokān imāṁs tvaṁ vyāpya tiṣhṭhasi
In plain words
You feel lost because you're looking for yourself in the wrong places — in titles, in outcomes, in what others expect. The lesson for you: the same sacred power that holds the stars together is already holding you, already moving through you, already *in* you right now. You don't need to find yourself; you need to recognize you've never been separate from what you're searching for.
Word by Word
Arjuna, overwhelmed by Krishna's revelation of infinite divine opulences, humbly asks him to describe completely these celestial powers by which he pervades and sustains all worlds. This is the soul's deepest longing — to understand not just that God exists everywhere, but *how* the infinite becomes intimate with the finite.
When you truly grasp that the same consciousness animating the galaxies also animates your breath, the boundary between the sacred and ordinary dissolves, and you begin to live from wholeness rather than fragmentation.
