Bhagavad Gita 10.8

अहं सर्वस्य प्रभवो मत्तः सर्वं प्रवर्तते। इति मत्वा भजन्ते मां बुधा भावसमन्विताः॥

ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavo mattaḥ sarvaṁ pravartate iti matvā bhajante māṁ budhā bhāva-samanvitāḥ

Translation

I am the Generator of all; all evolves from Me; understanding thus, the wise adore Me in rapt emotion.

What it means

I am the origin of all; from Me everything evolves; knowing this, the wise worship Me with loving awe. Knowledge is meant to become devotion. The conclusion of thought is adoration.

Try this today

Understanding does not dry devotion; it ignites it.

Something to reflect on

Has my understanding ever tipped over into awe?
