अव्यक्तादीनि भूतानि व्यक्तमध्यानि भारत । अव्यक्तनिधनान्येव तत्र का परिदेवना ॥ २-२८॥ avyaktādīni bhūtāni vyaktamadhyāni bhārata avyaktanidhanānyeva tatra kā paridevanā Beings unmanifest in the beginning, and unmanifest again in their end seem to be manifest in the middle, O Bharata. What then is there to grieve about? avyaktādīni = in the beginning unmanifested; bhūtānī = all that are created; vyakta = manifested; madhyāni = in the middle; bhārata = O descendant of Bharata; avyakta = nonmanifested; nidhanāni = when vanquished; eva = it is all like that; tatra = therefore; kā = what; paridevanā = lamentation.;
