स तया श्रद्धया युक्तस्तस्याराधनमीहते।

लभते च ततः कामान्मयैव विहितान्हि तान्॥

sa tayā śraddhayā yuktastasyārādhanamīhatelabhate ca tataḥ kāmānmayaivavihitānhi tān

With that faith, they worship that form and receive their wishes from it. Yet those wishes are granted by Me alone.

What it means

Krishna completes the thought. People worship a particular form with faith and receive what they hoped for. But behind every form, he says, it's really him granting those blessings. All rivers of grace flow from the same source, whatever channel they seem to come through.

The story

Krishna is showing Arjuna how vast divine care is. It works through every honest prayer, every form, every tradition, without needing credit.

In your life

Remember the kindness you receive from friends, strangers, nature. Many hands, one source of good. Tonight, give thanks for one blessing, and wonder where it truly came from.

Many channels, one source of grace.
