For I am the foundation of Brahman — the immortal, the imperishable, the eternal dharma, and absolute happiness. Shankara reads this as Krishna identifying Himself with the supreme Brahman that is the basis of all. Ramanuja sees God as the ground of both the personal and impersonal aspects of the divine. The Bhakti tradition celebrates this as the ultimate revelation: Krishna is the source of everything, including Brahman. Madhva interprets this as establishing God's supremacy — even the impersonal Brahman rests upon the personal God. Abhinavagupta reads this as Paramashiva declaring Himself the ground of both personal and impersonal divinity. Vallabha sees this as Krishna's ultimate self-revelation: He is the foundation from whom the absolute, eternal dharma, and supreme bliss all flow. Tilak reads this as the philosophical culmination of karma yoga: all duty participates in the cosmic order resting upon God. Vivekananda interprets this as the Gita's declaration that personal and impersonal aspects of divinity are complementary — the same reality approached through knowledge, devotion, or service.
