Chapter 10 verse 25
“I am Bhrigu amongst the great seers and the transcendental Om amongst sounds. Amongst chants know me to be the repetition of the Holy Name; amongst immovable things I am the Himalayas.”
Krishna continues to explain his glories by calling out the best of his creation. Bhrigu was an ancient sage who tested even the trimurti-trifecta of Supreme Beings-Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva and through that test, revealed the glories of the Lord. All of the Vedas, Upanishads and scriptural text call out the important of the pranava mantra- AUM which is said to be first even sound which Lord created and is the cause of the Universe itself. Lord also prefer simple but sincere devotion and so his favorite sacrifice amongst all sacrifices is the repetition of His Holy name (japa yagna). He also calls out that of all the mountain peaks on this earth, Himalayas is the greatest of all. Himalayas has and continues to house the greatest of sages mostly in subtle form who continue to meditate for the greatest welfare of society. His glories are numerous and these call outs are just a glimpse of those infinite glories.
