Word by Word
Krishna reveals here the ultimate nature of Brahman—that which transcends all manifestation yet sustains it, the imperishable ground of being that the Upanishads call akshara. When a soul reaches this supreme abode through wisdom and devotion, it returns no more to the wheel of becoming; it rests eternally in its own true nature.
For us today, this teaching dissolves the fear that spiritual realization is distant or impossible—it is already the deepest truth of your own being, waiting only to be recognized and claimed.
