Gita 10.41
यद्यद्विभूतिमत्सत्त्वं श्रीमदूर्जितमेव वा।
तत्तदेवावगच्छ त्वं मम तेजोऽंशसम्भवम्।।
yad yad vibhūtimat sattvaṁ śrīmad ūrjitam eva vā tat tad evāvagaccha tvaṁ mama tejo-'ṁśa-sambhavam
"Whatever being is glorious, prosperous, or powerful—know that to spring from a fraction of My splendor."
What This Means:
The universal principle: WHATEVER is glorious, prosperous, or powerful—ANYTHING—know it comes from a FRACTION (amsha) of Krishna's splendor. Not the whole, just a spark.
Going Deeper:
This is the take-home teaching. Every impressive thing you encounter reflects divine glory—but only a fraction of it. The source is infinitely greater than any manifestation.
How To Apply This:
This transforms how you see the world. Every excellence becomes a doorway. The most beautiful sunset, the most brilliant mind, the most powerful force—all are sparks of one fire.
