Chapter 9
Link:—In the previous verse, Lord Krsna explained, that all beings dwell in Him. But He did not explain, their new creation and final dissolution, which are going to be explained, in the next two verses.
sarvabhatani kaunteya prakrtim yanti mamikam
kalpaksaye punastani kalpadau visrjamyaham
All beings, O Kaunteya, merge into My Prakrti (the prime cause), at the end of a Kalpa and I myself create them again, at the beginning of the next Kalpa. 7
Comment:-
Sarvabhatani kaunteya prakrtim yanti mamikam kalpalsaye:—All beings, are God's fragments, and ever rest in Him. But, they identify themselves with Nature and its evolutes, body etc., by having an affinity of 'I'ness and 'Mineness'. So, these are born and die, again and again. At the time of final dissolution, when Brahma, the creator's life period of a hundred years, is over, the entire creation goes into an unmanifest state, with 'her actions.
Punastani kalpadau visrjamyaham:—When actions of those beings, become mature, to bear fruit, the Lord has His pursuit of nand, to become manifold from, one. This, is the beginning of a new creation. It has been mentioned, in the third verse of the eighth chapter, as follows—"This resolve, which brings forth the existence of beings, is called Adikarma (Action)." In the fourteenth chapter, it is mentioned "I place the seed" (14/3) and "I am the seed-giving, Father" (14/4).
It means, that at the beginning of a new creation, when Brahma emanates from the Lord, the Lord according to the actions of the beings, brings them forth, again. The Lord declares, it in the thirteenth verse of the fourth chapter, "The fourfold caste was created by Me, according to their qualities and actions."
