lokam

कर्मणैव हि संसिद्धिमास्थिता जनकादयः

loka-saṅgraham — for the welfare of the masses

It was by action alone that Janaka and others before him reached perfection. So act, if only for the sake of the world.

सक्ताः कर्मण्यविद्वांसो यथा कुर्वन्ति भारत

loka-saṅgraham — welfare of the world

As the unwise act while attached to their work, so let the wise act while unattached, wishing only the good of the world.

न कर्तृत्वं न कर्माणि लोकस्य सृजति प्रभुः

lokasya — of the people

The Lord creates neither doership nor actions for anyone, nor the joining of action to its fruit. It is one's own nature that acts.

त्रैविद्या मां सोमपाः पूतपापा यज्ञैरिष्ट्वा स्वर्गतिं प्रार्थयन्ते

lokam — abode

Knowers of the three Vedas, drinkers of soma, purified of fault, worshipping me by offerings, ask for the way to heaven — and reaching the world of the gods, they enjoy its pleasures.

किं पुनर्ब्राह्मणाः पुण्या भक्ता राजर्षयस्तथा

lokam — world

How much more, then, the holy brahmins and the royal sages who are devoted. Having come into this impermanent and joyless world, be devoted to me.

यो मामजमनादिं च वेत्ति लोकमहेश्वरम्

loka — of the universe

One who knows me as unborn, without beginning, the great lord of the worlds, is undeluded among mortals and freed of all fault.

द्यावापृथिव्योरिदमन्तरं हि व्याप्तं त्वयैकेन दिशश्च सर्वाः

loka — worlds

This space between heaven and earth, and all the directions, is filled by you alone. Seeing this wonderful and terrible form of yours, great being, the three worlds tremble.

कालोऽस्मि लोकक्षयकृत्प्रवृद्धो लोकान्समाहर्तुमिह प्रवृत्तः

loka-kṣhaya-kṛit — the source of destruction of the worlds

I am time, the destroyer of worlds, grown mighty; I have come forth to bring their ending. Even without you, none of these warriors drawn up in the opposing ranks will remain.

पितासि लोकस्य चराचरस्य त्वमस्य पूज्यश्च गुरुर्गरीयान्

lokasya — of the entire universe

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?

यथा प्रकाशयत्येकः कृत्स्नं लोकमिमं रविः

lokam — solar system

As one sun lights up this whole world, so the owner of the field lights up the whole field, Arjuna.
