भूतग्रामः स एवायं भूत्वा भूत्वा प्रलीयते ।
रात्र्यागमेऽवशः पार्थ प्रभवत्यहरागमे ॥
रात्र्यागमेऽवशः पार्थ प्रभवत्यहरागमे ॥
हिन्दी अनुवाद

English
O Arjuna, this entire group of beings is born again and again, and is dissolved at the coming of night; at the coming of day, it rises again, helplessly.
श्लोक का अर्थ
All living beings keep arising and dissolving again and again. They do so under the pull of nature, not by choice.
संदर्भ और टिप्पणी
On the battlefield of Kurukshetra, Arjuna is frozen by grief while Krishna explains the rhythm behind all created life. After describing cosmic day and night, Krishna says every being rises and falls in that cycle under nature’s compulsion.
आज के संदर्भ में
You build a life, a role, a relationship, then watch it shift overnight. What felt fixed was always moving through a larger rhythm you do not control.
सार
You can stop mistaking repeated change for permanence.
