The verse identifies the highest reality as the all-pervading Unmanifest (avyakta), beyond the categories of ‘universal’ and ‘non-universal’ as ordinarily conceived, and portrays it as a transcendent principle that inspires awe across time (past and future).
In a philosophical exchange in Śānti Parva, Yājñavalkya responds to a question posed to him (addressed as ‘lord of the Gandharvas’) about the notions of viśva and aviśva, redirecting the inquiry toward the supreme, unmanifest ground of existence.
