Sloka 7.9
7.9
पुण्यो गन्धः पृथिव्यां च तेजश्चास्मि विभावसौ ।
जीवनं सर्वभूतेषु तपश्चास्मि तपस्विषु ॥
పుణ్యో గన్ధః పృథివ్యాం చ తేజశ్చాస్మి విభావసౌ ।
జీవనం సర్వభూతేషు తపశ్చాస్మి తపస్విషు ॥
puṇyo gandhaḥ pṛthivyāṃ ca tejaścāsmi vibhāvasau |
jīvanaṃ sarvabhūteṣu tapaścāsmi tapasviṣu ||
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.
