Shloka 136
Vyaktāvyakta-Viveka and Nivṛtti as Paramā Gati
Manifest–Unmanifest Discrimination and the Supreme Path of Withdrawal
त्रैलोक्यं सर्वभूतेशे चक्रवत्परिवर्तते । तुम भी यह सब सुननेके योग्य अधिकारी हो; अतः भगवान् श्रीकृष्णका जो कल्याणमय उत्कृष्ट माहात्म्य है
trailokyaṁ sarvabhūteśe cakravat parivartate |
Wika ni Bhishma: “Ang tatlong daigdig ay umiikot na parang gulong sa loob ni Śrī Kṛṣṇa, ang Panginoon ng lahat ng nilalang. Karapat-dapat kang makarinig nito; kaya pakinggan mo ang mapalad at sukdulang kadakilaan ni Bhagavān Śrī Kṛṣṇa. Ang gulong ng panahon na walang simula at walang wakas—na nahahayag bilang paglikha at pagkalusaw—ay siya mismong anyo Niya; at sa loob Niya, ang tatlong daigdig ay walang tigil na umiikot na parang gulong.”

Educational Q&A
Kṛṣṇa is presented as the cosmic Lord in whom the entire universe and the cyclical wheel of time (creation and dissolution) operate; recognizing this inspires reverence, devotion, and a dharmic perspective on impermanence and cosmic order.
Bhīṣma, instructing the listener in Śānti Parva, introduces Kṛṣṇa’s supreme majesty and frames the cosmos as revolving within Him, emphasizing His role as the ground of all worlds and the cycle of time.
