Chapter 9: Royal Knowledgeराजविद्याराजगुह्ययोग
9:19
“I give heat, I withhold and send forth rain. I am immortality and also death, existence and non-existence, O Arjuna.”
Sanskrit
तपाम्यहमहं वर्षं निगृह्णाम्युत्सृजामि च | अमृतं चैव मृत्युश्च सदसच्चाहमर्जुन ||
Transliteration
tapāmy aham ahaṁ varṣaṁ nigṛhṇāmy utsṛjāmi ca amṛtaṁ caiva mṛtyuś ca sad asac cāham arjuna
Commentary
Krishna controls all natural phenomena: sun's heat, rain's withholding and release. He is both immortality and death, being and non-being—all opposites united in Him.
