Vibhūti Yoga · Verse 8

अहं सर्वस्य प्रभवो मत्तः सर्वं प्रवर्तते | इति मत्वा भजन्ते मां बुधा भावसमन्विताः

ahaṃ sarvasya prabhavo mattaḥ sarvaṃ pravartate | iti matvā bhajante māṃ budhā bhāva-samanvitāḥ

I am the source of everything; from Me everything evolves. Knowing thus, the wise worship Me with total attention.

Summary of the Vibhūti Yoga. Ahaṃ sarvasya prabhavaḥ — I am the origin of everything — the central declaration. Mattaḥ sarvaṃ pravartate — from Me everything proceeds — the cosmic dynamics.

Iti matvā — knowing thus — this knowledge transforms. Budhāḥ — the intelligent, not merely erudite — apply this understanding. Bhāva-samanvitāḥ — filled with love — the worship is bhajante, devotional service, not mere theoretical knowledge.

The knowledge of the vibhūtis naturally awakens love for the source of all greatness.
