Origin & Story

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 15, Verse 7 · Veda Vyasa (Lord Krishna's teaching) · Itihasa (Mahabharata)

In the fifteenth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, the Purushottama Yoga, Lord Krishna describes the cosmic tree of existence and the supreme Person beyond the perishable and imperishable. Turning to the nature of the soul, he reveals in this verse that the individual living being is an eternal fragment of his own Self, drawing the mind and senses around it as it dwells within material nature.

As told in scripture

Seekers hold that to truly realize this verse — that one's innermost self is an eternal spark of the Divine and not the perishable mind and body — is to be freed from the fear of death and to rest in the unbreakable bond between the soul and the Lord.
