Atithi-satkāra and the Consolation of Wise Counsel (अतिथिसत्कारः प्रज्ञानवचनस्य च पराश्वासनम्)
शिपिविष्टेति चाख्यायां हीनरोमा च यो भवेत् । तेनाविष्ट तु यर्त्किंचिच्छिपिविष्टेति च स्मृत:
śipiviṣṭeti cākhyāyāṃ hīnaromā ca yo bhavet | tenāviṣṭa tu yat kiṃcit śipiviṣṭeti ca smṛtaḥ ||
ମୋ ‘ଶିପିବିଷ୍ଟ’ ନାମର ବ୍ୟାଖ୍ୟା ଏହିପରି—ରୋମହୀନ ପ୍ରାଣୀକୁ ‘ଶିପି’ କୁହାଯାଏ, ଏବଂ ‘ବିଷ୍ଟ’ର ଅର୍ଥ ‘ବ୍ୟାପକ’। ମୁଁ ନିରାକାର ଭାବେ ସମଗ୍ର ଜଗତକୁ ବ୍ୟାପି ରହିଛି; ତେଣୁ ମୋତେ ‘ଶିପିବିଷ୍ଟ’ ବୋଲି ସ୍ମରଣ କରାଯାଏ।

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches the idea of divine all-pervasiveness: the supreme presence is understood as pervading everything, so the divine name “Śipiviṣṭa” points to immanence rather than a limited, localized form—supporting an ethic of reverence toward the world.
A traditional etymological explanation is being given for the epithet “Śipiviṣṭa,” unpacking its components (śipi and viṣṭa) to convey that the deity is present throughout all things.
