Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 10, Verse 13
आहुस्त्वामृषयः सर्वे देवर्षिर्नारदस्तथा । असितो देवलो व्यासः स्वयं चैव ब्रवीषि मे
āhustvāmṛṣayaḥ sarve devarṣirnāradastathā | asito devalo vyāsaḥ svayaṃ caiva bravīṣi me
Translation
The Supreme Brahman, the Supreme Light, the Supreme Purifier art Thou. All the Ṛṣis declare Thee as Eternal, Divine Puruṣa, the Primal God, Unborn, Omnipresent; so said the divine sage Nārada, as also Asita, Devala and Vyāsa; and Thou Thyself also sayest (so) to me.
— Alladi Mahadeva Sastri
