Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 10: The Divine Glories

Bhagavad Gita 10.7

एतां विभूतिं योगं च मम यो वेत्ति तत्त्वतः । सोऽविकम्पेन योगेन युज्यते नात्र संशयः ॥

etāṃ vibhūtiṃ yogaṃ ca mama yo vetti tattvataḥ | so'vikampena yogena yujyate nātra saṃśayaḥ ||

One who truly knows this glory and this power of mine is joined to me by a yoga that does not waver. Of this there is no doubt.

Modern context

Vibhuti means glory or splendid manifestation: the way the divine shines through the world. The verse says that truly knowing this makes a person's devotion steady, 'unwavering'. Seeing the sacred everywhere is what keeps faith from wobbling. When it is only in a temple, it is easy to forget outside. When it is in sunlight, in music, in a kind face, reminders come all day long.
