Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 8 verse 18

 Chapter 8 verse 18 

At the advent of Brahma’s day, all living beings emanate from the unmanifest source. And at the fall of his night, all embodied beings again merge into their unmanifest source.” 

Further to understand how unimaginable the expanse of Supreme Lord’s reach is, the beings are manifested at the beginning of Brahma’s day and dissolves at end of it-just 4.32 billion years later. We learnt that 100 years of Brahma is the age of the Universe. Further, each Universe has a brahma, Vishnu and Shiva orchestrating the functioning of that Universe. At the end of Universe, this maya merges with the Supreme. However what we learnt that 100 years of Brahma is just a breadth of Mahavishnu or the Supreme controller of everything and there could be countless Universes as well. This space and time are endless. Knowing this, all of us need to be aware of our irrelevance in the construct of the Universe and surrender to Divine.
