Chapter IX · Śloka 5
न च मत्स्थानि भूतानि पश्य मे योगमैश्वरम् ।
भूतभृन्न च भूतस्थो ममात्मा भूतभावनः ॥
भूतभृन्न च भूतस्थो ममात्मा भूतभावनः ॥
na ca mat-sthāni bhūtāni paśya me yogam aiśvaram |
bhūta-bhṛn na ca bhūta-stho mamātmā bhūta-bhāvanaḥ ||
bhūta-bhṛn na ca bhūta-stho mamātmā bhūta-bhāvanaḥ ||
And yet beings do not dwell in Me — behold My sovereign yoga! My Self, the source and sustainer of beings, does not abide in those beings.
Kṛṣṇa invites Arjuna to witness divine paradox directly. His yoga-aiśvarya (sovereign power) is that He upholds all existence without being spatially located within it.
