Hindi Translation (हिन्दी अर्थ)
हे अर्जुन! जो सब प्राणियों का बीज (कारण) है, वह मैं हूँ। ऐसा कोई भी चर (गतिशील) या अचर (स्थिर) प्राणी नहीं है जो मेरे बिना हो सके।
English Translation
O Arjuna, I am the seed of all beings. There is no being, moving or unmoving, that can exist without Me.
Commentary (टीका)
This comprehensive verse declares Krishna as the seed (bija) — the essential cause — of all existence. Nothing in creation, whether animate or inanimate, can exist independent of Him. This is a powerful statement of divine immanence, establishing that God is not merely transcendent but intimately present in every particle of creation.
