The Gita Blueprint for Leading and Winning in Business
That exalted Universal form has the brightness of thousands and
thousands (countless) of Suns rising altogether at the same time.
The entrepreneur sees this as the brightest opportunity for him to shine, when the time is right and he is riding on the scale wave. Once the wave subsides, or a competitor makes the first move in other markets, he will miss out on this great opportunity. He knows it is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and if he misses it, even if he puts a thousand times the effort, he may not get the success that he is bound to get now.
Sanjaya describes the splendor of Krishna’s cosmic form as surpassing even the combined brilliance of a thousand suns blazing together. This is not ordinary radiance—it is overwhelming, rare, and beyond comparison. Such a vision is not a daily occurrence; it appears only at a decisive moment meant to transform destiny.
This verse emphasizes timing as much as magnitude.
Entrepreneurs experience similar moments—rare windows when everything aligns:
At this stage, the opportunity feels dazzling. The entrepreneur senses that the market wave is at its peak and that riding it now can create disproportionate impact. Delay, hesitation, or miscalculation could mean the window closes.
The fear is real—and justified: once a competitor makes the first decisive move or the market dynamics shift, the same opportunity may never return. Even extraordinary effort later may not recreate what timely action can deliver today.
Great leaders understand the power—and danger—of timing.
This awareness creates urgency, but urgency must not turn into recklessness. The leader must act decisively without losing discernment. Missing the moment can be costly; misusing it can be fatal.
Mature leadership balances three forces:
Not every bright moment is meant to be seized blindly—but some are meant to be seized fully.
