CHAPTER 

VERSE

20

परस्तस्मात्तु भावोऽन्योऽव्यक्तोऽव्यक्तात्सनातन: |
य: स सर्वेषु भूतेषु नश्यत्सु न विनश्यति || 8.20 ||

Parastasmāttu bhāvo'nyo'vyakto'vyaktātsanātanaḥ
Yaḥ sa sarveṣu bhūteṣu naśyatsu na vinaśyati ||

But there is another unmanifest nature, which is eternal and is transcendental to this manifested and unmanifest matter. It is supreme and is never annihilated.

Lesson:

In this verse, Lord Krishna introduces us to a concept beyond our everyday material world. He talks about another type of existence, one that isn't visible or tangible like the things around us. This unmanifest reality is eternal, which means it has always been there and will always be there. Unlike the world we see, which is temporary and always changing, this higher reality remains constant.

Krishna wants us to understand that this unmanifest nature is superior to everything we know. It's like the ultimate source of everything. While our material world is limited and subject to birth and death, this unmanifest reality exists beyond these limitations. It's like the foundation upon which everything else is built.

Even though we can't perceive it with our senses, this unmanifest nature is indestructible. It doesn't disappear or change like the things we see around us. It's like a steady force that holds everything together, even when everything else seems to be falling apart.

Understanding this concept is crucial because it helps us see beyond the surface of things. It teaches us that there's more to life than what meets the eye. By realizing the existence of this eternal, unmanifest reality, we can start to grasp the deeper truths of existence and find a sense of stability amidst life's ups and downs.

Krishna's message here is about looking beyond the physical world and connecting with something higher and everlasting. It's about recognizing the divine presence that underlies all of creation and finding solace in the knowledge that there's something greater than ourselves at play in the universe. This understanding can bring a sense of peace and purpose to our lives, guiding us towards spiritual growth and enlightenment.
