Chapter-10 Vibhūti Yogaḥ

nānto’sti mama divyānāṃ vibhūtīnāṃ paraṅtapa | eṣa tūddeśataḥ prokto vibhūter vistaro mayā || 40 || 40. There is no limit to My divine glories O Arjuna (Scorcher-of-foes). Here I have only briefly adumbrated My Divine Manifestations. yad yad vibhūtimat sattvaṃ śrīmad ūrjitam eva ca | tat tad evāvagaccha tvaṃ mama tejo’ṃśa saṃbhavam || 41 || 41. Know for certain that whatever has sovereignty, splendour and brilliance is produced by a mere fraction of My potency. Commentary Sovereignty is the capacity and means to control others; splendour refers to that which has beauty or prosperity in terms of wealth, grains etc., or has brilliance namely, is engaged in actions for the benefit of others — know such manifestations as coming from a mere fragment of My ‘tejas’. Tejas or Might is the capacity to overcome all opposition. The meaning is, know them as arising from a fraction of My inconceivable power of subjugation.
