In this verse, Krishna is saying that whenever we see something beautiful, glorious, or powerful in the world, we should recognize that it comes from Him. It's like when you see a really beautiful flower or a stunning mountain; Krishna is saying that these things are just tiny pieces of His greatness.
Think about it like this: when you admire a gorgeous sunset, that beauty is just a small reflection of Krishna's own brilliance. Or, when you see an impressive building or a magnificent work of art, those things are also parts of Krishna's splendor, showing us what He is capable of creating.
This idea applies to everything, both in the material world (like nature, art, and architecture) and in the spiritual world (like the love and peace we feel). All forms of beauty and grandeur we experience are just glimpses of Krishna's true power and wealth. They are not the whole picture; they are merely a small taste of the infinite richness that Krishna embodies.
So, when we appreciate something grand or beautiful, whether it’s a rainbow in the sky or the love in our family, we should remember that it is just a spark from Krishna's immense light and greatness. It reminds us to see the divine presence in everything around us.
