Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 7

This verse is from Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 7, Verse 7. It is written in Sanskrit and translated into Hindi as:

mattaḥ parataraṁ nānyat kiñchid asti dhanañjaya
mayi sarvam idaṁ protaṁ sūtre maṇi-gaṇā iva ||7||

English translation:

"O Dhananjaya (Arjuna)! There is no ultimate truth except me. This entire universe is woven into me, like a garland of gems is strung on a thread."

Detailed explanation:

In this verse, Lord Krishna reveals the beautiful secret of His true nature.

He says —

"Arjuna! I am the basic thread of this entire creation. Just as beautiful beads of a garland are held together by a thread, similarly this entire universe is held together by Me."

We often see the various forms of this world — humans, animals, trees, rivers, mountains — as separate.

But the Lord reminds us that the invisible basis of all these is the same Supreme Being — that very Sri Krishna.

Just as a thread holds the beads together without being seen,

In the same way, the Lord is at the root of every particle, every life, every emotion —

Invisible but omnipresent.

On knowing this, a deep sense of unity and love awakens within us —

God is in all, all are in God.

Hindi meaning of Sanskrit words:

  • mattah – from me
  • paratram – best, beyond
  • nor otherwise – nothing else
  • Kinchit – even a little
  • asti – is
  • Dhananjaya – Arjun (one who acquires wealth in war)
  • mayi – in me
  • sarvam – complete
  • idam – this
  • protam – woven, threaded
  • Sutra – in thread
  • Mani-ganaah – like a group of gems
  • ew – like

In short:

Lord Shri Krishna is the invisible thread that connects every form, every living being, every event of this universe together.
There is nothing beyond Him, everything lies within Him.
