Divine Glory · Recognizing Your Own Worth

वृष्णीनां वासुदेवोऽस्मि पाण्डवानां धनञ्जयः । मुनीनामप्यहं व्यासः कवीनामुशना कविः ॥

vṛṣṇīnāṁ vāsudevo'smi pāṇḍavānāṁ dhanañjayaḥ, munīnām apy ahaṁ vyāsaḥ kavīnām uśanā kaviḥ.

Meaning

"Among the Vrishnis, I am Vasudeva; among the Pandavas, I am Arjuna; among sages, I am Vyasa; among poets, I am the poet Ushanas."

Explanation

Krishna even names Arjuna himself as an expression of divine glory, gently reminding him of his own worth.

Today's Life Lesson

Remember today that you, too, can be an expression of something greater—don't overlook your own worth.
