Chapter-10
The Divine Manifestation

Then lord Krishna, the ocean of mercy, said: O mighty armed Arjuna, I shall repeat My view to you, which I had told you earlier. Even though one reaps an abundant harvest by tilling the soil every year, one should not feel tired of doing so (51-55),

or one should purify by heating the gold over and over again, as it improves its luster. Therefore, O Partha, I am repeating My talk not to oblige you, but for My own satisfaction. When the child is decorated with ornaments, it does not know it, but the mother enjoys it as a festive occasion. In the same manner, the more you realise your own good, the more it will add to My happiness. But enough of this declamation. In truth, I like you so much that I am not satisfied by this long chat with you (56-60). Therefore, I am repeating to you the same thing over and over again, so hear with concentration. O discerning Arjuna, listen to My excellent talk. These are not mere words, but in this form it is the absolute truth, which has come to hold you in its loving embrace. But you have not yet known My real nature. You see Me here in flesh and blood, but I am really this whole universe.
