Krishna said,
“My dear friend, harken to my words. I am telling you about my splendorous sovereignty, which even high celestials and maharishis don’t know, haven’t figured out, because I am beyond that too. By knowing me wholly the wise go free from all sins. So here we begin…
“Everything of cosmic dream emanates from my mind therefore intelligence, understanding, freedom from hypnosis, forgiveness, truth, discipline, peace, joy, sorrow, birth & death, fear, courage & not-hurting tendency, equanimity, serenity, donation, fame and notoriety, all are sparks arising from me. I am responsible for the unfoldments of evil & virtue expanding in human destinies.
“The seven sages, four kumaras, Bramha and the fourteen manus too emanated from my will, and their descendants populated the world…
Just in one verse Krishna told the origin & history of the whole world. Very smart. Now it only needs research and expansion with modern technology into modern living.
“By realizing the fact of my prolific manifestation, yoga power and prosperity, your meditations go deep and the shade of my blessing always surrounds you. All, emerging from me, spread limitlessly, and merge back, and thus awe stricken they do indeed explore and adore me. Dropping the tools of research & investigation, intoxicated with bliss in the wine of my presence, experience they then mind in-drawn, soul lila-sunk, their words flow enlightening each other, leading to the shining divine scenes and sights of my loka. Upon such lovingly absorbed ones, I bestow treasury of ideas lightening the way; then they find their way to me who is their very own Self. Intensively when they are working through ideas from my mystic box or Holy Grail, I send a stream of light from my mystic torch called jnanadeepa. Then the rest of the darkness is finished and we unite together, and the bliss of our union spreads all over the world. Thus music echoes, flowers shower, nymphs dance and sing and a great festivity spreads into big celebrations.”
Arjuna asked,
“True, true, very true I definitely believe it my Lord, Oh, you are so great, and still so kind to me! Thank you O sporty, frolic-lover, lila-sunk dearest holy sire, you are Bramha, the Supreme, the pure, the sovereign; Sage Narada and Sage Asit and Sage Deval& Sage Vyasa had told me like that long ago, and now you yourself are telling me too!
“No one else can possibly know you, O bhuta bhavan, O devesha, O lord of the Universe; you alone know yourself fully. Therefore, tell me extensively your extensions & powers that you sustain this universe by. Gazing at what aspects and forms will I better recognize you?”
Krishna’s lips showered flowers again…
“O dear friend, your name is Gudakesa, conqueror of sleep; now I want you to awaken from the mayic sleep also; Although there goes no end to my varieties of phenomenal expressions I shall certainly tell you in brief some of them now, listen…
“First I am the very True Self in all of you. Then I am the alpha & omega of all life forms, as well as the vast field of achievement in the middle of life span.

“O Arjuna, that which is the origin of all beings is also me. There is none bereft of me. So all arc forms of mine, composed of my texture. No end there is in the expansion of my powers; What I told you was only the nutshell.
“Wherever who & whatsoever contains power, splendor, light & beauty, think of them emerging from a spark of my effulgent aura. In fact, I hold this entire five dimensional world by one beam of light emanating from my yogamaya which functions only by my single touch.”
