Jnana Vijnana Yogah - Besides this, know that My other nature, the life principle, sustains the universe.
अपरेयमितस्त्वन्यां प्रकृतिं विद्धि मे पराम् |
जीवभूतां महाबाहो ययेदं धार्यते जगत् ||5||

Besides this, know that My other nature, the life principle, sustains the universe.

  • Param: Supreme or higher.
  • Jivabhutam: Living entities or life force.
  • Jagat: The universe or world.

By introducing a superior spiritual energy, Krishna explains how life itself emanates from the divine. This contrasts with the prior verse, which describes material energy, indicating a layered understanding of existence.
