Commentary

The Yogi beholds through the eye of intuition (JnanaChakshus or DivyaChakshus) oneness or unity of the Self everywhere. This is a sublime and magnanimous vision indeed. He feels; All indeed is Brahman. He beholds that all beings are one with Brahman and that the Self and Brahman are identical.
