"Yada yada hi dharmasya glanir bhavati bharata
Abhyutthanam adharmasya tadatmanam srijamyaham
Paritranaya sadhunam vinashaya cha dushkritam
Dharma-samsthapanarthaya sambhavami yuge yuge"
(Bhagavad Gita 4.7–8)
🌿 Translation
"Whenever there is a decline in righteousness and an increase in unrighteousness, O Bharata,
at that time I manifest Myself on Earth.
To protect the virtuous, destroy the wicked, and re-establish Dharma,
I appear millennium after millennium."
at that time I manifest Myself on Earth.
To protect the virtuous, destroy the wicked, and re-establish Dharma,
I appear millennium after millennium."
🔱 The Eternal Promise of Divine Intervention
These verses are more than just poetry or mythology—they carry a timeless promise. Spoken by Lord Krishna to Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, they express a universal law: when the scales of good and evil become imbalanced, when dharma (righteousness) is threatened, the Divine takes form to restore harmony.
This is not merely an outer cosmic event—it’s a deeply personal and inner phenomenon as well.
🔥 Dharma vs. Adharma: Within and Without
- Dharma is more than moral duty. It is the soul’s natural rhythm—the alignment with truth, compassion, and higher consciousness.
- Adharma is that which opposes this flow—inner ignorance, outer chaos, ego-driven decisions, and fear-based living.
When adharma rises within us, when our own integrity, joy, or alignment is threatened, the Divine within us begins to stir.
You become your own Krishna. Your own savior.
✨ The Avatar Within
Krishna doesn’t just appear as a blue-skinned deity in mythological times. He appears in your courage, in your intuitive knowing, in your fierce decisions to protect what is sacred in your life.
When:
- You speak truth in the face of injustice,
- Choose compassion over resentment,
- Return to your practice when lost in chaos,
- Or stand for light when surrounded by darkness,
…you are embodying the Gita’s promise.
🕊️ A Call to Action
We are living in times of great change. Many feel the rise of "adharma" in the world—greed, disconnection, anxiety, divisiveness. But the solution is not in fear or retreat.
The solution is to remember your power, your divine spark, and to take up the call of dharma in your own way—through love, awareness, and aligned action.
🧘♀️ Integrating this Wisdom
Here are some practices to live these verses:
- 🔹 Daily Reflection: Ask, “Where am I out of alignment with my truth?”
- 🔹 Mantra Practice: Chant or write the verse to activate inner courage and clarity.
- 🔹 Service (Seva): Offer your gifts to uplift others—this is living dharma in action.
- 🔹 Kundalini Yoga: Practice kriyas that clear negativity and align you with divine purpose.
🌟 In Closing
The Gita reminds us that we are never abandoned. When righteousness is under threat—whether in the world or in our hearts—the Divine will rise. Sometimes as a savior, sometimes as strength within, and sometimes as the clarity to make the next right choice.
“Sambhavami Yuge Yuge” — I appear, age after age, form after form, heart after heart.
May you find the Krishna within you—and may you always have the courage to walk your dharma.
