Continuing my Krishna verses:

Krishna says to me:

यद्यपि त्वं न मां द्रष्टुं शक्नोषि तव चक्षुषा ।
तज्ज्योतिरहमेवास्मि येन त्वं जगदीक्षसे ।।५१४।।
Even if you are not able to see me with your eyes, I am that light with
which you see the world.

न मां शृणोषि कर्णेन किन्तु ते हृदये स्थित: ।
वाचं वदामि शब्दैस्ते तज्जानीहि सुहृत्तम ।।५१५।।
You do not hear me with your ears, but residing in your heart I speak with
your words. Know that, my best friend.

नाहं यद्यपि ते स्पर्शगम्य: सर्वत्र सर्वदा ।
करोमि तव हस्ताभ्यां सर्वकार्याणि सन्ततम् ।।५१६।।
Though you don’t always feel me everywhere with your touch, I constantly do
all the work with your hands.

वेत्सि त्वं मम कार्याणां न वर्त्मानीह भूतले ।
अतन्द्रितोऽहं युक्तोऽस्मि जगच्क्रप्रवर्तने ।।५१७।।
You don’t know the ways of my actions in the world, but I am engaged in
turning the wheels of the world without rest.
