Origin & Story

Bhagavad Gita Chapter 18, Verse 77 · Sage Veda Vyasa (Mahabharata, Bhishma Parva) · Ancient (text compiled c. 5th–2nd century BCE)

Near the very end of the eighteenth chapter, Moksha Sannyasa Yoga, Sanjaya reflects on all he has witnessed and narrated to Dhritarashtra. Recalling repeatedly the most wonderful cosmic form of Krishna, he is overcome with wonder and rejoices again and again — one of the final verses that convey the bliss of remembering the Lord.

As told in scripture

The tradition holds that mere remembrance of the Lord's divine form, as Sanjaya here describes, fills the heart with joy and wonder time and again — showing that the bliss of devotion is inexhaustible and renews itself with every loving recollection of God.
