Origin & Story

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 10, Verse 36 · Sage Veda Vyasa (Mahabharata, Bhishma Parva) · Ancient (text compiled c. 5th–2nd century BCE)

In the tenth chapter, the Yoga of Divine Glories (Vibhuti Yoga), Krishna lists the foremost manifestations of his power across every sphere of life. Here he names himself as victory, resolve, splendour and goodness, revealing that the strength to triumph and the radiance of noble character are themselves expressions of the Supreme.

✦ As told in scripture

Devotees facing daunting trials have drawn courage from this verse, for in declaring 'I am victory and firm resolve,' Krishna assures them that the power to overcome is the Lord's own; many recount how, surrendering the outcome to him, they found unexpected steadiness and success.
