सर्वलोकान्तरात्मा च सर्वगः सर्ववाद्यपि । सर्वत्र भगवान् ज्ञेयो हृदिस्थ: सर्वदेहिनाम्,वे सम्पूर्ण जगतके अन्तरात्मा, सर्वव्यापी और सर्ववादी हैं, उन भगवान् शिवको सर्वत्र और सम्पूर्ण देहधारियोंके हृदयमें विराजमान जानना चाहिये

Vāsudeva berkata: “Tuhan Yang Maha Mulia—yang merupakan Diri batin bagi semua alam, meliputi segala-galanya, dan hadir sebagai dasar bagi setiap ajaran serta setiap ujaran—hendaklah dikenali di mana-mana, bersemayam di dalam hati setiap makhluk yang berjasad.”
