Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 10: The Divine Glories

Bhagavad Gita 10.14

सर्वमेतदृतं मन्ये यन्मां वदसि केशव । न हि ते भगवन् व्यक्तिं विदुर्देवा न दानवाः ॥

sarvametadṛtaṃ manye yanmāṃ vadasi keśava | na hi te bhagavan vyaktiṃ vidurdevā na dānavāḥ ||

I hold as true everything you tell me, Krishna. Neither the gods nor the demons, Lord, know your manifestation.

Modern context

'I hold as true everything you tell me.' This is the moment of trust that the whole dialogue has been building toward. It is not blind belief; Arjuna has argued, questioned and doubted for nine chapters. Trust that comes after honest questioning is far stronger than trust given without it. It has been tested and has held.
