यो मां पश्यति सर्वत्र सर्वं च मयि पश्यति।

तस्याहं न प्रणश्यामि स च मे न प्रणश्यति॥

yo māṃ paśyati sarvatra sarvaṃ ca mayi paśyatitasyāhaṃ na praṇaśyāmi sa ca me na praṇaśyati

Whoever sees Me everywhere and sees everything in Me, I am never lost to them, and they are never lost to Me.

What it means

Krishna makes a tender promise. Whoever sees him in everything, and everything in him, will never lose him. And he will never lose them. It's a relationship that can't be broken, because there's nowhere they could go where he isn't.

The story

Arjuna is terrified of losing the people he loves. Krishna offers something no war can take. A bond with the divine that holds in every place, every moment, even through death.

In your life

Think of someone who still feels a lost parent near them in sunsets, songs, a certain smell. Love finds them everywhere. Look for the sacred in one ordinary thing today.

Love that is everywhere is never lost.
