Arrange the voices that speak to you

Dr. S. Sankaranarayan

Or, O Arjuna! Why this detailed explanation? I remain, pervading this entire universe with a single fraction of Myself.

Shri Purohit Swami

But what is the use of all these details to thee? O Arjuna! I sustain this universe with only small part of Myself."

Swami Adidevananda

But of what use to you is all this extensive knowledge O Arjuna? I stand sustaining this whole universe with a fragment of Mine (of My power).

Swami Gambirananda

Or, on the other hand, what is the need of your knowing this extensively, O Arjuna? I remain sustaining this whole creation in a special way with a part (of Myself).

Swami Sivananda

But of what avail to thee is the knowledge of all these details, O Arjuna? I exist, supporting this whole world by one part of Myself.
