Commentary (टीका)
This verse emphasizes the non-dualistic nature of the ultimate reality, stating that the divine entity is simultaneously all major deities, and indeed, the entirety of the universe. It expresses the concept of advaita or non-dualism, a central idea in Vedantic philosophy, underlining that nothing exists apart from the ultimate reality. It reflects the simultaneous transcendence and immanence of the divine, presenting a vision where the *self* is all-encompassing, leaving no space for anything separate or distinct from its being. Through this inclusivity, the sloka conveys the pervasive presence of divinity in every aspect of existence.
