The Deepest Mystery   ---   The Bhagavad Gita

In this world there are two orders of being, the perishable and the imperishable. The perishable is all that is visible. The imperishable is the invisible substance of all that is visible.

But above and beyond the perishable and the imperishable is the supreme soul. The supreme soul created the universe; and having created the universe, the supreme soul entered it, and sustained it.

I am the supreme soul. Every sacred text praises me, and recognises me as transcending the perishable and the imperishable. Those who encounter me, and see me as the supreme soul, have eyes of truth. Those who worship and adore me with unwavering devotion, have hearts of truth.

I am revealing to you the deepest mystery. When you have fully understood my words, your task in this world is complete.
