Listen further, Arjuna, to my supreme teaching,
which gives you such joy. Desiring your welfare,
O strong-armed warrior, I will tell you more.
2
Neither gods nor sages know my origin, for I
am the source from which the gods and sages
come. 3 Whoever knows me as the Lord of all
creation, without birth or beginning, knows
the truth and frees himself from all evil.

Discrimination, wisdom, understanding,
forgiveness, truth, self-control, and peace of
mind; pleasure and pain, birth and death, fear
and courage, honor and dishonor; 5 nonviolence,
charity, equanimity, contentment, and perseverance
in spiritual disciplines – all the different qualities
found in living creatures have their source in me.
