Brahmā’s Instruction on Elements and Faculties
यदा पश्यति भूतानि प्रसन्नात्मा55त्मनो हृदि । स्वयंज्योतिस्तदा सूक्ष्मात् सूक्ष्मं प्राप्नोत्यनुत्तमम्
yadā paśyati bhūtāni prasannātmātmanaḥ hṛdi | svayaṁjyotis tadā sūkṣmāt sūkṣmaṁ prāpnoty anuttamam ||
Vāyu bersabda: Apabila seorang yogin, dengan minda yang jernih dan tenteram, melihat segala makhluk hadir di dalam hati dirinya sendiri, maka pada saat itu—bersinar dengan cahaya batinnya sendiri—dia mencapai Yang Tertinggi tiada bandingan, lebih halus daripada yang terhalus.

Educational Q&A
When the mind becomes serene through yoga, one perceives all beings within the inner self (heart-consciousness). This vision culminates in realizing the self-luminous Supreme Reality—described as subtler than the subtlest—indicating liberation through inward clarity and universal, non-separative awareness.
Vāyudeva is instructing about yogic realization: he describes the experiential sign of spiritual maturity—seeing all beings inwardly—and the resulting attainment of the unsurpassed Supreme (Paramātman/Brahman).
