Chapter 8: Akṣhar Brahma Yog
arjuna uvācha
kiṁ tad brahma kim adhyātmaṁ kiṁ karma puruṣhottama
adhibhūtaṁ cha kiṁ proktam adhidaivaṁ kim uchyate||1||
adhiyajñaḥ kathaṁ ko ’tra dehe ’smin madhusūdana
prayāṇa-kāle cha kathaṁ jñeyo ’si niyatātmabhiḥ||2||

Meaning : Arjuna said:
O Supreme Person (Puruṣhottama), what is Brahman? What is the self (adhyātma)? What is karma (action)? What is said to be the material manifestation (adhibhūta)? And what is called the divine (adhidaiva)? O Madhusudana (Krishna), who is the Lord of sacrifice (adhiyajña) and how does He dwell in the body? And how are You to be known at the time of death by those whose minds are disciplined?
