Bhagavad Gita Chapter 10, Verse 26
अश्वत्थः सर्ववृक्षाणां देवर्षीणां च नारदः | गन्धर्वाणां चित्ररथः सिद्धानां कपिलो मुनिः ||
aśvatthaḥ sarva-vṛkṣāṇāṁ devarṣīṇāṁ ca nāradaḥ gandharvāṇāṁ citrarathaḥ siddhānāṁ kapilo muniḥ
Among all trees, I am the Peepal; among the divine sages, I am Narada; among the Gandharvas, I am Chitraratha; among the perfected beings, I am the sage Kapila.
Krishna continues enumerating manifestations in nature, sages, and celestial beings. 'Aśvatthaḥ sarva-vṛkṣāṇām'—among all trees, I am the Peepal tree. The Peepal is considered sacred and is often associated with spiritual wisdom. 'Devarṣīṇāṁ ca nāradaḥ'—among divine sages, I am Narada. Narada is the celestial sage who travels through all worlds singing the glories of the Lord. 'Gandharvāṇāṁ citrarathaḥ'—among Gandharvas (celestial musicians), I am Chitraratha. 'Siddhānāṁ kapilo muniḥ'—among perfected beings (siddhas), I am the sage Kapila, founder of Sankhya philosophy. This verse shows Krishna as the best in nature (Peepal), devotion (Narada), music (Chitraratha), and philosophy (Kapila).
