सर्वभूतानि कौन्तेय प्रकृतिं यान्ति मामिकाम्। कल्पक्षये पुनस्तानि कल्पादौ विसृजाम्यहम्॥
sarva-bhūtāni kaunteya prakṛitiṁ yānti māmikām kalpa-kṣhaye punas tāni kalpādau visṛijāmy aham
Meaning
At the end of a cosmic cycle, O Arjuna, all beings return to My prakriti (material nature), and at the beginning of the next cycle, I create them again.
Creation is cyclic. At cosmic dissolution, everything merges back into divine nature. At new creation, everything emerges again. This happens repeatedly without end. Understanding this grand cosmic rhythm puts personal concerns in perspective — we are part of an infinite, eternal dance.
Strength Reflection
"I rest in the eternal rhythm of creation and dissolution, knowing I am part of something infinite."
Devotional Surrender
O Lord, whether creation or dissolution, I am always in Your nature, always Yours.
