Upadrashtanumanta cha bharta bhokta maheshvarah, paramatmeti chapy ukto dehe 'smin purushah parah

The Supreme Purusha in this body is the overseer, the permitter, the supporter, the experiencer, the great Lord, and is also called the Paramatma (Supersoul). This verse reveals the presence of God within every being as the inner witness and support.

  • The Supersoul (Paramatma) dwells within every body
  • God is the inner witness, sanctioner, and sustainer
  • The Supreme is distinct from the individual soul within the body
Samam sarveshu bhutesu tishthantam parameshvaram, vinashyatsv avinashyantam yah pashyati sa pashyati

One who sees the Supreme Lord equally present in all beings, the imperishable within the perishable — that person truly sees. The hallmark of genuine realization is the perception of the Divine equally in all forms of existence.

  • True vision perceives the Divine equally in all beings
  • The imperishable Supersoul dwells within all perishable forms
  • Equal vision toward all beings marks the realized soul
