Commentary
In this verse the Lord describes the effect of the vision of the unity of the Self or oneness. He who sees Me; the Self of all; in all beings; and everything (from Brahma the Creator down to the blade of grass) in Me; I am not lost to him; nor is he lost to Me. I and the sage or seer of unity of the Self become identical or one and the same. I never leave his presence nor does he leave My presence. I never lose hold of him nor does he lose hold of Me. I dwell in him and he dwells in Me.
