Adhyāya 42 — Mahābhūta–Indriya–Adhyātma-Vyavasthā
Brahmā’s Instruction on Elements and Faculties
सर्ववित् सर्वभूतेषु विन्दत्यात्मानमात्मनि । जो मनको हृदयकमलमें स्थापित करके अपने भीतर ही ध्यानके द्वारा आत्मदर्शनका प्रयत्न करता है
sarvavit sarvabhūteṣu vindaty ātmānam ātmani |
Vāyu bersabda: “Ia yang menegakkan batin di dalam teratai hati, lalu berusaha melalui meditasi batin untuk menyaksikan Sang Diri di dalam dirinya, menjadi mahatahu mengenai semua makhluk; dan di dalam batin (hati-pikiran) ia mengalami secara langsung hakikat tertinggi Paramātman.”

Educational Q&A
By turning the mind inward and meditating on the Self within the heart, one realizes the Ātman and thereby gains a universal, all-beings-inclusive knowledge—an experiential recognition of the Paramātman within the inner consciousness.
Vāyudeva is speaking and instructing that true omniscience is not mere information but arises from yogic inwardness: establishing the mind in the heart-lotus, seeking direct self-vision through meditation, and thereby experiencing the supreme reality within.
