Divine presence

Raso 'ham apsu kaunteya prabhasmi shashi-suryayoh, pranavah sarva-vedesu shabdah khe paurusham nrishu

I am the taste of water, the light of the sun and moon, the sacred syllable Om in Vedic mantras; I am the sound in ether and ability in humans.

Adhibhutam ksharo bhavah purushash cadhidaivatam, adhiyajno 'ham evatra dehe deha-bhritam vara

O best of embodied beings, the physical nature that is constantly changing is called adhibhuta (the material element). The cosmic form of the Lord, including all demigods, is called adhidaiva. And I, the Supreme Lord, represented as the Supersoul in the heart of every embodied being, am called adhiyajna. God Himself is the adhiyajna — the inner divine witness present in the heart of all beings.

Aham kratur aham yajnah svadhahám aham aushadham, mantro 'ham aham evajyam aham agnir aham hutam

I am the ritual, I am the sacrifice, I am the offering to the ancestors, I am the healing herb, I am the mantra, I am the clarified butter, I am the fire, and I am the act of offering. Krishna declares Himself to be the substance, the means, and the goal of all spiritual practice.

Kshetra-jnam chapi mam viddhi sarva-kshetreshu bharata, kshetra-kshetrajnayor jnanam yat taj jnanam matam mama

O Arjuna, understand that I am the knower of the field in all fields. Knowledge of the field and its knower I regard as true knowledge.

Ishvarah sarva-bhutanam hrid-deshe 'rjuna tishthati, bhramayan sarva-bhutani yantrarudhani mayaya

The Supreme Lord is situated in everyone's heart, O Arjuna, and is directing the wanderings of all living entities, who are seated as on a machine, made of the material energy.

Yatra yogeshvarah krishno yatra partho dhanur-dharah, tatra shrir vijayo bhutir dhruva nitir matir mama

Wherever there is Krishna, the master of all mystics, and wherever there is Arjuna, the supreme archer, there will also certainly be opulence, victory, extraordinary power, and morality.
