अर्जुन उवाच। परं ब्रह्म परं धाम पवित्रं परमं भवान्। पुरुषं शाश्वतं दिव्यमादिदेवमजं विभुम्॥
arjuna uvācha paraṁ brahma paraṁ dhāma pavitraṁ paramaṁ bhavān puruṣhaṁ śhāśhvataṁ divyam ādi-devam ajaṁ vibhum
Meaning
Arjuna said: You are the Supreme Brahman, the supreme abode, the supreme purifier — the eternal divine person, the primordial God, unborn and all-pervading.
Arjuna's recognition peaks: Krishna is the supreme reality, the ultimate refuge, the source of all purity, the eternal divine person, the original God, beyond birth, present everywhere. This is the disciple's recognition that opens the door to full transmission.
Strength Reflection
"I recognize the Divine in all its aspects: supreme reality, refuge, and purifier."
Devotional Surrender
O Supreme Lord, primordial and eternal, unborn and all-pervading — I recognize You.
