B.G 7.11
बलं बलवतामस्मि कामरागविवर्जितम्। धर्माविरुद्धो भूतेषु कामोऽस्मि भरतर्षभ ॥११॥
I am the strength of the strong, free from desire and attachment. O best of the Bharatas, I am the desire in beings that is not contrary to righteousness (dharma).
Gīta Tātparya 7.11
A testimonial is provided elaborating how the lord is established in everyone as the strength, 'bala' , that is not opposed to 'dharma' .
नित्यपूर्णबलत्वात्तु बलम् कामविवर्जितः। अराजसबलश्चैव स्थानेभोऽन्येष्वयोजनात्॥
Himself being that strength which is eternal, complete, and devoid of desire is called 'bala' , i.e. strength. It is strength without passion, and indeed, its application is proper in the right places, but not in others.
एतादृशबलात्माऽसौ बलिनां बलदः स्वयम्। वेति पूर्णत्ववाची स्यात् तद्रतेः बलमुच्यते॥
He, whose nature is of such strength, is the giver of strength to the strong. He himself alone knows the expression of such strength in fullness, and thus he is called 'bala', the strength.
प्रायो हि कामिता अर्था धर्मं हन्युर्हरिः पुनः। न धर्महानिकृत् किन्तु कामितो धर्मवृद्धिकृत्॥
Generally, desired objects or wealth indeed may destroy righteousness (dharma), but Lord Hari (Vishnu) is not the destroyer of dharma. On the contrary, when desired, He causes the growth of dharma.
धर्माविरुद्धकामोऽतो विष्णुर्भूतेषु संस्थितः। एवं स सर्वतश्चान्यः स्वतन्त्रश्चैव सर्वगः। व्यवस्थयैव सर्वेषां सर्वदा सर्वदः प्रभुः ॥११॥
Desire not opposed to dharma is therefore established in all beings as Vishnu. Thus, He is all-pervading and yet different, independent and indeed ever-present. Through proper arrangement, the Lord always remains the giver of everything to all.
