Shloka 1
Sanskrit:
बहूनां जन्मनामन्ते ज्ञानवान्मां प्रपद्यते |
वासुदेवः सर्वमिति स महात्मा सुदुर्लभः ॥ ७.१९ ॥
Transliteration:
Bahūnāṁ janmanām ante jñānavān māṁ prapadyate,
Vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti sa mahātmā su-durlabhaḥ.
Meaning:
After many births and deaths, the wise person surrenders unto Me, realizing that “Vasudeva (Krishna) is everything.” Such a great soul is extremely rare.
Explanation:
Krishna says that only after many lifetimes does a person gain the wisdom to fully surrender and see Krishna as the essence of everything. Such a mahatma (great soul) is very rare in this world. This makes true realization precious!
Shloka 2 Sanskrit:
कामैस्तैस्तैर्हृतज्ञानाः प्रपद्यन्तेऽन्यदेवताः |
तं तं नियममास्थाय प्रकृत्या नियताः स्वया ॥ ७.२० ॥
Transliteration:
Kāmais tais tair hṛita-jñānāḥ prapadyante ’nya-devatāḥ,
Taṁ taṁ niyamam āsthāya prakṛityā niyatāḥ svayā.
Meaning:
Those whose knowledge has been stolen by material desires surrender to other gods and follow particular rules according to their own nature.
Explanation:
People driven by desires often worship various deities and follow specific rituals. Krishna explains this compassionately — it is due to the influence of material desires that the mind turns elsewhere. Yet, He is still watching over everyone.

Transliteration:
Yo yo yāṁ yāṁ tanuṁ bhaktaḥ śhraddhayārchitum ichchhati,
Tasya tasyāchalāṁ śhraddhāṁ tām eva vidadhāmy aham.
Meaning:
Whatever form a devotee desires to worship with faith, I make his faith steady in that particular form.
Explanation:
Krishna is so merciful that even when people worship other forms or deities with faith, He strengthens their faith in that form. He personally nourishes every sincere seeker, no matter which path they choose. What immense compassion!
