Sloka 7.4
7.4
भूमिरापोऽनलो वायुः खं मनो बुद्धिरेव च ।
अहङ्कार इतीयं मे भिन्ना प्रकृतिरष्टधा ॥
భూమిరాపోఽనలో వాయుః ఖం మనో బుద్ధిరేవ చ ।
అహఙ్కార ఇతీయం మే భిన్నా ప్రకృతిరష్టధా ॥
bhūmirāpo’nalo vāyuḥ khaṃ mano buddhireva ca |
ahaṅkāra itīyaṃ me bhinnā prakṛtiraṣṭadhā ||
About chapter 7
Krishna describes his two natures: the lower, made of the eight elements of matter, and the higher, the life force that sustains the world. Everything rests in him like pearls on a thread. He describes four kinds of people who worship him — the distressed, the seeker of knowledge, the seeker of wealth and the wise — and says the wise one is dearest to him.
