aśraddadhānāḥ puruṣā dharmasyāsya parantapa

Persons without faith in this DHARMA (the Divine Self) , O Parantapa, without attaining Me, return to the path of rebirth, fraught with death.

मत्स्थानि सर्वभूतानि न चाहं तेष्ववस्थितः ॥ ९-४॥
mayā tatamidaṃ sarvaṃ jagadavyaktamūrtinā
matsthāni sarvabhūtāni na cāhaṃ teṣvavasthitaḥ 9-4
All this world is pervaded by Me in My Unmanifest form (aspect) ; all beings exist in Me, but I do not dwell in them.

भूतभृन्न च भूतस्थो ममात्मा भूतभावनः ॥ ९-५॥
na ca matsthāni bhūtāni paśya me yogamaiśvaram
bhūtabhṛnna ca bhūtastho mamātmā bhūtabhāvanaḥ 9-5

तथा सर्वाणि भूतानि मत्स्थानीत्युपधारय ॥ ९-६॥
yathākāśasthito nityaṃ vāyuḥ sarvatrago mahān
tathā sarvāṇi bhūtāni matsthānītyupadhāraya 9-6
As the mighty wind, moving everywhere, rests always in space (the AKASHA ) , even so, know you, all beings rest in Me.

All beings, O Kaunteya (O Son of Kunti) , go into My PRAKRITI (nature) at the end of a KALPA; I send them forth again at the beginning of (the next) KALPA.

hetunānena kaunteya jagadviparivartate 9-10
Under Me as her Supervisor, PRAKRITI (nature) produces the moving and the unmoving; because of this, O Kaunteya, the world revolves.

avajānanti māṃ mūḍhā mānuṣīṃ tanumāśritam
paraṃ bhāvamajānanto mama bhūtamaheśvaram 9-11
Fools disregard Me when I dwell in human form; they know not My Higher being as the Great Lord of all beings.

bhajantyananyamanaso jñātvā bhūtādimavyayam 9-13
But the MAHATMAS (great-souls) O Partha, partaking of My divine nature, worship Me with a single mind (with a mind devoted to nothing else) , knowing Me as the Imperishable Source of all beings.

पिताहमस्य जगतो माता धाता पितामहः ।
वेद्यं पवित्रमोङ्कार ऋक्साम यजुरेव च ॥ ९-१७॥
pitāhamasya jagato mātā dhātā pitāmahaḥ
vedyaṃ pavitramoṅkāra ṛksāma yajureva ca 9-17
I am the Father of this world, the Mother, the supporter and the grandsire; the (one) Thing to be known, the Purifier, (the syllable) OM, and also the RIK, the SAMA and the YAJUH also.

प्रभवः प्रलयः स्थानं निधानं बीजमव्ययम् ॥ ९-१८॥
gatirbhartā prabhuḥ sākṣī nivāsaḥ śaraṇaṃ suhṛt

(As Sun) I give heat; I withhold and send forth the rain; I am Immortality and also death, both Existence and Non-existence, O Arjuna.
त्रैविद्या मां सोमपाः पूतपापा
यज्ञैरिष्ट्वा स्वर्गतिं प्रार्थयन्ते ।

yajñairiṣṭvā svargatiṃ prārthayante
te puṇyamāsādya surendraloka-
maśnanti divyāndivi devabhogān 9-20
The Knowers of the three VEDAS, the drinkers of SOMA , purified from sin, worshipping Me by sacrifices, pray for the way to heaven; they reach the holy world of the Lord-of-the-gods and enjoy in heaven the Divine pleasures of the gods.
ते तं भुक्त्वा स्वर्गलोकं विशालं
क्षीणे पुण्ये मर्त्यलोकं विशन्ति ।
एवं त्रयीधर्ममनुप्रपन्ना

te taṃ bhuktvā svargalokaṃ viśālaṃ
kṣīṇe puṇye martyalokaṃ viśanti
evaṃ trayīdharmamanuprapannā
gatāgataṃ kāmakāmā labhante 9-21
They, having enjoyed the vast heaven-world, when their merits are exhausted, enter the world-of-the-mortals; thus abiding by the injunctions of the three (VEDAS) , desiring (objects of) desires, they attain to the state of going-and-returning (SAMSARA) .

तेषां नित्याभियुक्तानां योगक्षेमं वहाम्यहम् ॥ ९-२२॥
ananyāścintayanto māṃ ye janāḥ paryupāsate
teṣāṃ nityābhiyuktānāṃ yogakṣemaṃ vahāmyaham 9-22

Even those devotees, who, endowed with faith worship other gods, worship Me alone, O son of Kunti, (but) by the wrong method.
अहं हि सर्वयज्ञानां भोक्ता च प्रभुरेव च ।
न तु मामभिजानन्ति तत्त्वेनातश्च्यवन्ति ते ॥ ९-२४॥
ahaṃ hi sarvayajñānāṃ bhoktā ca prabhureva ca
na tu māmabhijānanti tattvenātaścyavanti te 9-24

ये भजन्ति तु मां भक्त्या मयि ते तेषु चाप्यहम् ॥ ९-२९॥
samo’haṃ sarvabhūteṣu na me dveṣyo’sti na priyaḥ
ye bhajanti tu māṃ bhaktyā mayi te teṣu cāpyaham 9-29
The same am I to all beings, to Me there is none hateful nor dear; but those who worship Me with devotion, are in Me and I am also in them.

साधुरेव स मन्तव्यः सम्यग्व्यवसितो हि सः ॥ ९-३०॥
api cetsudurācāro bhajate māmananyabhāk
sādhureva sa mantavyaḥ samyagvyavasito hi saḥ 9-30
Even if the most sinful worships Me, with devotion to none else, (or with single-pointedness) , he too should indeed be regarded as righteous, for he has rightly resolved.
क्षिप्रं भवति धर्मात्मा शश्वच्छान्तिं निगच्छति ।
कौन्तेय प्रतिजानीहि न मे भक्तः प्रणश्यति ॥ ९-३१॥
