Verse Context

• Īśvara-tattva via Vyūha doctrine (Vāsudeva–Saṅkarṣaṇa–Pradyumna–Aniruddha)
• Mahavakya: Indirect—frames the personal Lord’s functional manifestations while Vedānta ultimately sublates plurality into Brahman; can be read as upāsanā-supportive toward ‘तत् त्वम् असि’ (identity realized beyond emanational distinctions).
• Atharva
• Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (śloka)
