Uitleg

Krishna uses an image of conception to describe creation. The great Brahman, here understood by most readers as primordial nature (prakṛti) in its undifferentiated state, is his womb, and into it he places the seed. From this union all beings arise. The image joins the two principles of the previous chapter, nature and the conscious principle, but now places both under Krishna: nature is his womb, and the seed is his. Creation is not mechanical but generative, like the birth of a child. The divine is both mother-ground and father-source.
