Rāja-Vidyā Rāja-Guhya Yoga (राजविद्या राजगुह्य योग) — The Yoga of Royal Knowledge and Royal Secret
हे अर्जुन! तू ऐसा समझ कि सम्पूर्ण भूत इन दोनों प्रकृतियोंसे ही उत्पन्न होनेवाले हैं* और मैं सम्पूर्ण जगत्का प्रभव तथा प्रलय हूँ अर्थात् सम्पूर्ण जगत्का मूल कारण हूँ? ।।
mattaḥ parataraṁ nānyat kiñcid asti dhanañjaya | mayi sarvam idaṁ protaṁ sūtre maṇigaṇā iva ||
O Arjuna, erkenne: Alle Wesen entstehen aus diesen beiden Naturen; und Ich bin Ursprung der ganzen Welt und ebenso ihr Vergehen. O Dhanañjaya, nichts ist höher als Ich. Diese ganze Welt ist in Mir aufgefädelt wie Perlen an einem einzigen Faden.
