10.7 'Supernal manifestation' is the glory (Vibhuti) of the Lord. He who in truth knows this supernal manifestation that all origination, sustentation and activity depend on Me, and also that Yoga of Mine which is in the form of auspicious attributes antagonistic to all that is evil - such a person becomes united with the Yoga or Bhakti of an unshakable nature. Of this, there is no doubt. The meaning is: You yourself will see that the knowledge concerning the supernal manifestation and auspicious attributes of Mine will increase devotion. Sri Krsna now shows that the growth of devotion is of the form of the development of knowledge of His supreme state.

10.7 एताम् this? विभूतिम् (manifold) manifestation of My Being? Commentary Knowledge of the glory of the Lord is really conducive to Yoga. He who knows in essence the immanent pervading power of the Lord by which He causes the manifestations? and His diverse manifestations (Vibhutis)? unites with Him in firm unalterable Yoga and attains eternal bliss and perfect harmony. From the ant to the Creator there is nothing except the Lord. He who knows in reality this extensive manifestation of the Lord and His Yoga (Yoga here stands for what is born of Yoga? viz.? infinite Yogic powers as well as omniscience)? is endowed with firm unwavering Yoga. He lives in the Eternal and is endowed with the highest knowledge of the Self. He who has realised this Truth is free from the superiority and inferiority complexes. There i real awakening of wisdom in him. He will behold the Lord in all beings and all beings in the Lord. He will never hate any creature on this earth. This is a rare living cosmic experience. The Yogi realises that the Lord and His manifestations are one. He attains the supreme goal and is absorbed in Him through his wholehearted devotion. He is perfectly aware of his oneness with the Supreme by My divine Yoga.He can keep his balance of mind now in whatever environments and circumstances he is placed and can do any action without losing his consciousness of oneness or identity with the Supreme Self. (Cf.VII.25IX.5XI.8)What is that unshaken Yoga with which they are endowedThe answer follows.

।।10.7।। जो इस मेरी विभूति और योग को तत्त्व से जानता है? वह ब्रह्मज्ञान में निष्ठा प्राप्त करता है। इस श्लोक में प्रयुक्त इन दो शब्दों विभूति और योग का जो अर्थ सदैव बताया जाता है वह क्रमश भूतमात्र का विस्तार और ऐश्वर्य सार्मथ्य है।यद्यपि ये अर्थ सही हैं? तथापि वे इतने प्रभावी नहीं हैं कि पूर्व श्लोक में वर्णित सिद्धांत और इस श्लोक के साथ उसकी सूक्ष्म और सुन्दर संगति को व्यक्त कर सकें। सप्तर्षियों के माध्यम से समष्टि विश्व की अभिव्यक्ति ही परमात्मा की विभूति है जबकि चार मानस पुत्रों द्वारा सृष्ट जीव (व्यष्टि) के अनुभव का जगत् आत्मा का दिव्य योग है। व्यष्टि जीव के जगत् का अधिष्ठान आत्मा ही परमात्मा (ब्रह्म) है? जो सम्पूर्ण विश्व का आधार है। अत? यहाँ कहा गया है कि? जो पुरुष विभूति और योग इन दोनों को ही परमात्मा की दिव्य अभिव्यक्ति के रूप में साक्षात् जानता है? वही पुरुष अनन्त ब्रह्म का अपरोक्ष अनुभव करता है।उपर्युक्त विवेचन द्वारा पूर्व श्लोक में कथित सप्तर्षि तथा चार कुमारों की ब्रह्माजी के मन से उत्पत्ति हुई की उपयुक्तता को समझने में कठिनाई नहीं रह जाती। जब परमात्मा व्यष्टि और समष्टि मनों से अपने तादात्म्य को त्याग देता है? तब वह अपनी स्वमहिमा में ही प्रतिष्ठित होकर रमता है। समष्टि उपाधि के साथ तादात्म्य से वह ब्रह्म ईश्वर बन जाता है? और व्यष्टि के साथ संबंध से जीवभाव को प्राप्त हो जाता है। वेदान्त के इस अभिप्राय को समझना और उसी अनुभव में जीना ही अविकम्प योग है। इस योग से ही आत्मानुभूति में दृढ़ और स्थायी निष्ठा प्राप्त होती है। योग शब्द से कुछ ऐसा अर्थ समाज में प्रचलित हो गया था कि लोगों के मन में उसके प्रति भय व्याप्त हो गया था। गीता में? महर्षि व्यास? स्वयं भगवान् श्रीकृष्ण के मुखारविन्द से इस परिचित शब्द योग का अर्थ नए सन्दर्भ में इस प्रकार स्पष्ट करते हैं कि उसके प्रति व्याप्त आशंका निर्मूल हो जाती है और वह सबके लिए कल्याणकारक भी सिद्ध होता है। अविकम्प योग उतना ही अपूर्व है जितनी कि योग शब्द की विविध परिभाषायें हैं? जो गीता के पूर्वाध्यायों के विभिन्न श्लोकों में दी गयी हैं। गीता हिन्दूपुनरुत्थान की रचनात्मक क्रांति का वह एकमात्र धर्मग्रन्थ है? जिसका स्थान अन्य कोई ग्रन्थ नहीं ले सकता।आत्मस्वरूप के अखण्ड अनुभव में दृढ़ और स्थायी निष्ठा प्राप्त करने के लिए कौन सा निश्चित साधन है भगवान् श्रीकृष्ण अगले श्लोक में बताते हैं --
