Bhagavad Gita Chapter 9 - Rajavidya Rajaguhya Yoga - Sloka 6

The entire content of this mail is from Swami Chidbhavananda's translation of The Bhagavad Gita, published by Ramakrishna Mission

The Relationship between Saguna Brahman and Prakriti 1-10
1 Gita Sloka  every day - Chapter 9 - Rajavidya Rajaguhya Yoga - Sloka 6


Yatha akasha stha sthitah nityam vayuh sarvatra gah mahan I
Tatha sarvani bhutani matsthani iti updharaya II sloka 6
यथा आकाश स्थ स्थितः नित्यं वायुः सर्वत्र गः महान I
तथा सर्वाणि भूतानि मत्स्थानि इति उपधारय II श्लोक 6


As the mighty wind moving everywhere ever rests in the Akasha, know you that so do all beings rest in Me.

Akasha is the origin and background of the other four elements. At the same time it remains unattached to the other elements. Even so he manifested universe that has come forth from the Brahman causes no modification or mutation Him. An understanding of the way of Akasha aids the comprehension of Brahman.

Though the wind carries the good or bad odour alike it remains unaffected by both. Para Brahman is likewise unaffected by the phenomenal universe.
