Bhagavad Gita 10.18 · Arjuna
The nectar you never tire of
विस्तरेणात्मनो योगं विभूतिं च जनार्दन।
भूयः कथय तृप्तिर्हि शृण्वतो नास्ति मेऽमृतम्॥
vistareṇātmano yogaṃ vibhūtiṃ ca janārdanabhūyaḥ kathaya tṛptirhi śṛṇvato nāsti me’amṛtam
Tell me again, in detail, of your power and your glory, Janardana. I can never have enough of this nectar.
What it means
Arjuna calls Krishna Janardana, the one all people turn to. Then he confesses he is not satisfied. These words taste like nectar, the drink of immortality, and he wants more. Real wonder does not wear out. It deepens every time you return to it.
The story
Krishna has already said a great deal. A tired listener would nod and move on. Arjuna does the opposite. He asks Krishna to say it all again, and in more detail. The student is now leading the lesson.
In your life
A retired man reads the same poem every morning on his porch, and it still surprises him. Tomorrow, return to something that once moved you, and read it slowly, as if for the first time.
Some words never grow old.
