Sanskrit
एतां विभूतिं योगं च मम यो वेत्ति तत्त्वतः । सोऽविकम्पेन योगेन युज्यते नात्र संशयः ॥ ७ ॥
etāṃ vibhūtiṃ yogaṃ ca mama yo vetti tattvataḥ so'vikampena yogena yujyate nātra saṃśayaḥ
Translation
He who knows in essence that sovereignty and yoga of Mine, he is harmonised by unfaltering yoga; there is no doubt thereof.
Annie Besant · The Bhagavad-Gita, translated by Annie Besant (4th ed., 1922) — Wikisource · Public Domain
Explanation
The pivot verse: the first place “vibhūti” (rendered “sovereignty” here, elsewhere “glory” or “manifestation”) is named explicitly alongside yoga, summarizing what verses 1-6 have been demonstrating without naming. Grasping this pairing tattvataḥ, “in essence,” is said to establish one in unwavering yoga — the manifestations aren’t offered as trivia, they’re framed as a yogic practice with a stated result.
