asti

नेहाभिक्रमनाशोऽस्ति प्रत्यवायो न विद्यते

asti — there is

On this path no effort is wasted and no step is lost. Even a little of it saves you from great fear.

यामिमां पुष्पितां वाचं प्रवदन्त्यविपश्चितः

asti — is

Those of small understanding speak flowery words, delighting in the letter of the scriptures, and say there is nothing more —

नास्ति बुद्धिरयुक्तस्य न चायुक्तस्य भावना

asti — is

The unjoined have no understanding and no contemplation; without contemplation there is no peace, and without peace, where is happiness?

न मे पार्थास्ति कर्तव्यं त्रिषु लोकेषु किञ्चन

asti — is

There is nothing in the three worlds that I must do, son of Pritha, nothing I lack and nothing I need to gain — and yet I act.

यज्ञशिष्टामृतभुजो यान्ति ब्रह्म सनातनम्

asti — is

Those who eat what remains of the offering go to the eternal. But for one who makes no offering there is no place, either here or beyond.

अज्ञश्चाश्रद्दधानश्च संशयात्मा विनश्यति

asti — is

The ignorant, the faithless and the doubting are lost. For one who doubts there is no happiness here or anywhere.

नात्यश्नतस्तु योगोऽस्ति न चैकान्तमनश्नतः

asti — there is

Yoga is not for one who eats too much, nor for one who does not eat at all; not for one who sleeps too much, nor for one who stays awake.

मत्तः परतरं नान्यत्किञ्चिदस्ति धनञ्जय

asti — there is

There is nothing higher than me, Arjuna. All this is strung on me like pearls on a thread.

अन्तकाले च मामेव स्मरन्मुक्त्वा कलेवरम्

asti — there is

And at the last hour, one who leaves the body remembering me alone goes to my own state. Of this there is no doubt.

समोऽहं सर्वभूतेषु न मे द्वेष्योऽस्ति न प्रियः

asti — is

I am the same in all beings. No one is hateful to me and no one dear. But those who worship me with devotion are in me, and I am in them.

विस्तरेणात्मनो योगं विभूतिं च जनार्दन

asti — is

Tell me again, and in detail, of your power and your glories. I am not sated by hearing them; your words are nectar to me.

हन्त ते कथयिष्यामि दिव्या ह्यात्मविभूतयः

asti — is

Very well — I will tell you of my divine glories, but only the chief of them, Arjuna, for there is no end to them.

यच्चापि सर्वभूतानां बीजं तदहमर्जुन

asti — is

And whatever is the seed of all beings, that am I, Arjuna. There is nothing that moves or does not move that exists without me.

नान्तोऽस्ति मम दिव्यानां विभूतीनां परंतप

asti — is

There is no end to my divine glories, Arjuna. What I have said is only a pointer to their extent.

पितासि लोकस्य चराचरस्य त्वमस्य पूज्यश्च गुरुर्गरीयान्

asti — is

You are the father of this world, of what moves and what does not. You are its teacher, and worthy of its worship, and greater than any. There is nothing like you; how could anything be greater, you of matchless might in the three worlds?

इदमद्य मया लब्धमिमं प्राप्स्ये मनोरथम्

asti — is

“This I have gained today; this wish I shall obtain. This is mine, and this wealth also will be mine.

आढ्योऽभिजनवानस्मि कोऽन्योऽस्ति सदृशो मया

asti — is

I am wealthy and well-born. Who is there like me? I shall offer sacrifices, I shall give, I shall enjoy.” So they think, deluded by unknowing.

न तदस्ति पृथिव्यां वा दिवि देवेषु वा पुनः

asti — exists

There is no being on earth, nor among the gods in heaven, that is free from these three strands born of nature.
