Bhagavad Gita
The Song of God
Commentary by Swami Mukundananda
मा ते व्यथा मा च विमूढभावो
दृष्ट्वा रूपं घोरमीदृङ्ममेदम् |
व्यपेतभी: प्रीतमना: पुनस्त्वं
तदेव मे रूपमिदं प्रपश्य || 49||
mā te vyathā mā cha vimūḍha-bhāvo
dṛiṣhṭvā rūpaṁ ghoram īdṛiṅ mamedam
vyapeta-bhīḥ prīta-manāḥ punas tvaṁ
tad eva me rūpam idaṁ prapaśhya
ma te vyatha ma cha vimudha-bhavo
drishtva rupam ghoram idrin mamedam
vyapeta-bhih prita-manah punas tvam
tad eva me rupam idam prapashya
