Explaining about his divine powers, Bhagvan Shri Krishna further declares in the above verses that all attributes among all living creatures are originated from Him alone. This completes the facts that everything in this universe, material, living or attributes originated from Bhagvan Shri Krishna.

Though this very statement that everything originated from Shri Krishna is self-explanatory, some people have confusion about some attributes listed, which in human terminology is considered negative like a failure, pain, fear, and non-becoming, etc. In fact, in an earlier chapter (7.4) Shri Krishna has explained that even ego is originated from him.

What happens when we as humans try to conclude anything, we consider negative or positive in reference to human life only ignoring completely the fact that this universe is not made for humans alone but for a variety of other creatures. Many attributes like ego, fear, non-becoming, etc which might be negative for humans but are the necessity for other living beings. In animal, ego gives their sense of belongings and help them exists as a living being without a developed mind. Similarly fear in animals provides them alertness to exist as among animals they feed upon each other.

The conclusion is that every attribute which either appears as good or bad is necessary for the existence of the universe.
