Verse 11.19

Verse 11.19: “Without beginning, middle, or end; of exhaustless potence, countless—armed, with the Moon and the Sun for Thine eyes; I behold Thee, with the blazing Oblation—consumer (Fire) for Thy mouth, and, in Thine own radiance, searing-up the universe. (310)

Commentary called Jnaneshwari by Jnaneshwar:

Thou art without beginning, middle or end: thou art of unfathomed might that works by myriads of hands and feet spread in the whole universe. The moon and the sun are thine eyes that sportively bespeak thy mercy and wrath; the fury of the one frowns chastisement on some, while the benign glance of the other bedews another with protective grace. In sooth I behold the fulfilling of thy will in these many ways. Thy mouth is emitting light like the all-consuming flames of the world-destroying fire, like the wild flames of (forest) fire on a mountain that envelope whatever comes in their way. Thy tongue lolls between (the rows of) teeth, licking the jaws. And caught in the all consuming fire of its flames the whole universe is being tormented with a scarring that threatens to destroy it.
