ज्ञानस्वरूपो भगवान् यतो ऽसाव् अशेषमूर्तिर् न तु वस्तुभूतः ततो हि शैलाब्धिधरादिभेदाञ् जानीहि विज्ञानविजृम्भितानि
jñānasvarūpo bhagavān yato 'sāv aśeṣamūrtir na tu vastubhūtaḥ tato hi śailābdhidharādibhedāñ jānīhi vijñānavijṛmbhitāni
พึงรู้ว่า ภควานทรงมีสภาวะเป็นจิตสำนึกอันบริสุทธิ์: ทรงเป็นรูปแห่งทุกรูป แต่หาใช่สิ่งหนึ่งท่ามกลางสรรพสิ่งไม่. เพราะฉะนั้น ความแตกต่างอย่างภูเขา มหาสมุทร และแผ่นดินผู้ค้ำจุน จงเข้าใจว่าเป็นการแผ่ขยายที่ปรากฏด้วยวิชญาณอันศักดิ์สิทธิ์ของพระองค์

FAQs
It asserts that Vishnu’s ultimate nature is pure consciousness, not material substance, making Him the ground of all experience and all cosmic forms.
He frames worldly differences as vijñāna-vijṛmbhita—unfoldings of divine knowledge—so plurality is real as manifestation, while the Supreme remains beyond objecthood.
Vishnu is presented as the Supreme Reality who pervades all forms without becoming a finite thing, aligning creation with His sovereignty and conscious power.
