Bhagavad Gita 4.6
Sanskrit
अजोऽपि सन्नव्ययात्मा भूतानामीश्वरोऽपि सन्। प्रकृतिं स्वामधिष्ठाय संभवाम्यात्ममायया।।4.6।।

Word by Word
Krishna reveals the paradox that pierces all seeking: He is eternally unborn, the imperishable Self within all beings, the Lord of creation—yet He descends voluntarily through His own divine power, not bound by necessity but moved by compassion. This is the mystery of avatar: the infinite choosing limitation not out of ignorance, but out of love.
When you recognize that the divine moves through apparent weakness and ordinariness, you stop waiting for enlightenment to arrive in thunder—you begin seeing it already present in the gentle, chosen constraints of your own life.
