Origin & Story

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 18, Verse 64 · Sage Veda Vyasa (Mahabharata, Bhishma Parva) · Ancient (text compiled c. 5th–2nd century BCE)

In the eighteenth chapter, Moksha Sannyasa Yoga, having declared the knowledge already imparted and left Arjuna free, Krishna now lovingly offers to reveal His most confidential word. He tells Arjuna that, because he is dearly beloved, He will speak what is for his highest good — leading directly into the Gita's supreme teaching of surrender.

✦ As told in scripture

Devotees treasure this verse as the Lord's open declaration of love, holding that the Supreme reveals His deepest secrets only to the heart He cherishes — and that to know oneself dear to God is itself the beginning of the highest good.
