Scripture references

• Bhagavad Gītā · 11.43

  पितासि लोकस्य चराचरस्य त्वमस्य पूज्यश्च गुरुर्गरीयान् । न त्वत्समोऽस्त्यभ्यधिकः कुतोऽन्यो लोकत्रयेऽप्यप्रतिमप्रभाव ॥

  pitāsi lokasya carācarasya tvam asya pūjyaś ca gurur garīyān | na tvat-samo 'sty abhyadhikaḥ kuto 'nyo loka-traye 'py apratima-prabhāva ||

  You are the father of all the world, of everything that moves and everything that stands still. You are the one to be worshipped, the greatest teacher. In all three worlds no one is even equal to You, so how could anyone be greater, O Lord of matchless power?
