“Enough, madman! Get up and make ready. You have rubbed a mamakāra that does not even exist onto your head and collapsed like a log. The Lord of all is the cause of everything, not you. There is such a fierce power, and because they have grasped that power, they fear no cataclysm whatever. For kṣatriyas, war is a holy ford at the sword’s edge. Knowing this well, Bhīṣma, Droṇa and the rest have come resolved to leave the body in battle and so cross over. Look: are they weeping like you, I wonder! They will never grieve as you do, nor turn back. Arjuna! Mark this: this is a hard hour of testing for you!” Nor did He stop there: “Pārtha! There is no time at all when I am not, or when I was not. Why say more? So it is with you, with these kings, and with this army as well. Never have any of us ceased to be.” With this, declaring the oneness of the Paramātma, meant by the word “Tat”, and the jīvātma, meant by “Tvam”, He taught the meaning of the mahāvākya “Tat tvam asi”. Just as clay exists before the pot, so before whatever is imagined, the adhiṣṭhāna is already there.
