Bhagavad Gita 11.6 · Krishna
Wonders no one has seen
पश्यादित्यान्वसून्रुद्रानश्विनौ मरुतस्तथा।
बहून्यदृष्टपूर्वाणि पश्याश्चर्याणि भारत॥
paśyādityānvasūnrudrānaśvinau marutastathābahūnyadṛṣṭapūrvāṇi paśyāścaryāṇi bhārata
Behold the gods of sun, of earth, of storm, the twin healers and the winds. Behold wonders never seen before.
What it means
Krishna names the ancient Vedic families of gods. The Adityas of light, the Vasus of the elements, the Rudras of storm, the twin healers, and the Maruts, the winds. All of them live within his form. And beyond them are wonders no eye has ever seen.
The story
Arjuna grew up hearing hymns to these gods. They were the powers of sky and storm his ancestors praised at the sacred fire. Now he sees them, not as separate rulers, but as features of one face.
In your life
You take your niece to a natural history museum. She stops beneath a whale skeleton, mouth open, silent. Watch her, and remember that feeling. This month, go somewhere you have never been, and simply look.
Behold what you have never seen.
