Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 7 verse 8


Chapter 7 verse 8

“I am the taste in water, radiance in the sun and moon, sacred syllable Om in Vedic mantras, sound in the space and abilities in humans.”

The ability to taste something comes from the water/liquid present in that object. Lord says that he is that source of that taste in water without which all food becomes tasteless. He is also the brightness in both the sun and moon without which those celestial objects lose their purpose. The vastness of space is there to communicate sound without which no language exists and humans are around in the vain knowledge that we have some ability to do things. That ability is also given by the Lord. The Om mantra which is the essence of our Vedic scriptures is also Him. This is a declaration which should settle all doubts in man that they don’t do anything. It is the act and magic of the Divine.
