Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 9: The Royal Knowledge and Royal Secret
Bhagavad Gita 9.4
मया ततमिदं सर्वं जगदव्यक्तमूर्तिना ।
मत्स्थानि सर्वभूतानि न चाहं तेष्ववस्थितः ॥
mayā tatamidaṃ sarvaṃ jagadavyaktamūrtinā | matsthāni sarvabhūtāni na cāhaṃ teṣvavasthitaḥ ||
This whole universe is pervaded by me in my unmanifest form. All beings rest in me, but I do not rest in them.
Modern context
The divine fills the whole universe, unseen. All beings rest in it, but it does not rest in them. The second half is the puzzle. Think of the ocean and a wave. The wave is entirely ocean and rests in the ocean, but you could not say the ocean rests in that one wave. It is far too large to be held by any single form. The same is true of the divine and every being: each is held, none holds.
