Bhagavad Gita 11.22 · Arjuna
Every kind of being, amazed
रुद्रादित्या वसवो ये च साध्या
विश्वेऽश्विनौ मरुतश्चोष्मपाश्च।
गन्धर्वयक्षासुरसिद्धसङ्घा
वीक्षन्ते त्वां विस्मिताश्चैव सर्वे॥
rudrādityā vasavo ye ca sādhyā viśve’aśvinau marutaścoṣmapāścagandharvayakṣāsurasiddhasaṅghā vīkṣante tvāṃ vismitāścaiva sarve
Rudras, Adityas, Vasus, Sadhyas, all the gods, the Ashvins, Maruts, ancestors, singers, spirits, asuras and perfected ones, all gaze at You amazed.
What it means
Arjuna lists every class of being he knows. Storm gods, sun gods, elemental powers. Healers, wind spirits, ancestors. Heavenly musicians, nature spirits, even the asuras, the anti-gods. All of them, friend and foe alike, gaze at Krishna in vismita, pure amazement.
The story
Notice that even the asuras, the opponents of the gods, are amazed. Before this form, every rivalry pauses. Arjuna sees that his own battlefield divisions look small here.
In your life
Think of a total solar eclipse, when strangers of every background stand together in silence, looking up. Wonder unites us. Share something wondrous with someone you disagree with.
Wonder unites every kind of being.
