All the gods in one body

paśyāmi devāṃstava deva dehe sarvāṃstathā bhūtaviśeṣasaṅghānbrahmāṇamīśaṃ kamalāsanasthaṃ ṛṣīṃśca sarvānuragāṃśca divyān

O God, in Your body I see all the gods and beings, Brahma on his lotus, Shiva, the sages, the divine serpents.

What it means

Arjuna begins to describe what he sees. All the gods. Every kind of being. Brahma, the creator, seated on a lotus. Ishvara, Shiva. All the great sages. Divine serpents. Every sacred figure from every story he grew up with, all living within Krishna's single form.

The story

Arjuna's world is full of separate gods and heroes. Suddenly he sees them all inside one being. It's like discovering that every river he knew flows into one ocean.

In your life

Think of a grand cathedral or temple where every carving tells a different story, yet all belong to one building. Look for what connects the different parts of your life today.
