Origin & Story

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 4, Verse 10 · Sage Veda Vyasa (Mahabharata, Bhishma Parva) · Ancient (text compiled c. 5th–2nd century BCE)

In the fourth chapter, Jnana-Karma-Sannyasa Yoga, after revealing the divine nature of his birth and deeds, Krishna explains how devotees come to him. He recounts that across the ages many, freed from attachment, fear and anger and taking refuge in him, have been purified by knowledge and have attained his very being — assuring Arjuna that the path to him is open to all.

As told in scripture

The lives of countless saints stand as living proof of this verse, for many who took refuge in the Lord and conquered attachment, fear and anger were transformed by the fire of knowledge and, by tradition, merged into his divine nature — a promise the Gita declares has already been fulfilled for innumerable devotees.
