Yo maam pashyati sarvatra sarvam
cha mayi pashyati;
Tasyaaham na pranashyaami
sa cha me na pranashyati.
He who sees Me everywhere and sees everything in Me, he does not become separated from Me nor do I become separated from him.
Verse 31
Sarvabhootasthitam yo maam
bhajatyekatwamaasthitah;
Sarvathaa vartamaano’pi
sa yogee mayi vartate.
He who, being established in unity, worships Me who dwells in all beings,—that Yogi abides in Me, whatever may be his mode of living.
Verse 32
Aatmaupamyena sarvatra samam
pashyati yo’rjuna;
Sukham vaa yadi vaa duhkham sa
yogee paramo matah.
He who, through the likeness of the Self, O Arjuna, sees equality everywhere, be it pleasure or pain, he is regarded as the highest Yogi!
Verse 30
Yo māṁ paśyati sarvatra: “He who beholds Me everywhere”; sarvaṁ ca mayi paśyati: “and beholds all things in Myself.” Therefore, “He who beholds Me in all things sees My presence in everything, and also sees all things located in Me.”
I shall not lose him, and he shall not lose Me.” God will not desert us. We will never be disconnected from God. All things shall be provided to us by this Great Being, provided that we are able to convince ourselves in the heart of our hearts that all things are located in the Absolute and the Absolute is located in all things.
We are dear to God and God is dear to us in such an intensive manner that we are perpetually inseparable. That state of life is the attainment of great godliness .
In the blog post as well as in a talk several years before in Sai centre, the author has dealt with Loving God outside , Loving God within and then Loving all ( which has to culminate into serve all)
The essence of that talk is given below, which echoes the same essence as this verse.
Once and Only when we have realized God within the cave of our heart, then seeing the same essence in all, in everything happens on its own. We cannot possibly see each and every one as a form of God, whichever form it may be.
Either we realize God as LOVE in the path of Bhakti or as SELF in the path of wisdom. It is only then, that we verily exist as LOVE/ SELF and each being, each object, everything outside us come, touch us and take the essence of LOVE/ SELF that we are, with them and return happily.
Verse 31
Sarvabhūtasthitaṁ yo māṁ bhajatyekatvam āsthitaḥ: “One who adores Me as residing in all things, as the Atman, or the Self, or the essence of all things; one who worships Me in this way—locating Me everywhere, worshipping Me in all things, beholding Me in every little form and name—whoever does this is able to achieve this great unity with Me.”
Ekatvam āsthitaḥ means he who has attained to a unity of perception in the midst of the diversity of things. Whatever be the mode of that person’s life, that person is one with God.
Sarvathā vartamānopi sa yogī mayi vartate: Such a person, irrespective of his occupations, location and circumstances, is rooted in God because of the great concentration that he has practiced on the deepest Self in him as the Self of all beings.
This again is echoed in the easence of the talk, quoted in the earlier verse.
