Uitleg

Krishna names himself in pairs of opposites. He gives heat; he holds back the rain and sends it. He is immortality and also death, being and non-being, sat and asat. The verse refuses to separate the divine from any part of reality. Both the gentle and the terrible, the life-giving and the destructive, come from the same source. Traditions interpret being and non-being in various ways, as the manifest and unmanifest, or the gross and subtle, but all see a totality that includes every contrast.
