Krishna replied: Indeed, I shall tell you of the most prominent among my divine manifestations, for there is no end to their extent.

[19]

I am the self, seated in the heart of all beings. I am the beginning, middle, and end for them all.

[20]

Of all the creative powers, I am the creator. Of all the luminous bodies, I am the radiant sun. Of the winds, I am the whirlwind, and among the stars, I am the moon.

[21]

Of the scriptures, I am the hymns. Among the gods, I am Indra. Of the senses, I am the mind, and of all living beings, I am the consciousness within.

[22]

Among the forces of vitality, I am the force of life. To the heathens and godless, I am the lord of wealth. Of the elements, I am fire, and of the mountains, I am Mount Meru.
