आत्यन्तिक-लयहेतुः: तापत्रय-विवेचनम् तथा ‘भगवान्/वासुदेव’ शब्दार्थः
Threefold Suffering and the Path to Final Liberation; Meaning of Bhagavān and Vāsudeva
वसन्ति तत्र भूतानि भूतात्मन्य् अखिलात्मनि स च भूतेष्व् अशेषेषु वकारार्थस् ततो ऽव्ययः
vasanti tatra bhūtāni bhūtātmany akhilātmani sa ca bhūteṣv aśeṣeṣu vakārārthas tato 'vyayaḥ
تمام جاندار اسی بھوتاتما، اخیل آتما میں بستے ہیں؛ اور وہ بھی بلا استثنا ہر جاندار کے اندر بستا ہے۔ ‘و’ حرف کا مفہوم یہی ہمہ گیری ہے، اسی لیے وہ اَویَی (ناقابلِ زوال) ہے۔
Sage Parāśara (teaching Maitreya)
This verse teaches Vishnu’s immanence: every creature exists in Him as the universal Self, establishing Him as the sustaining ground of the cosmos.
Parāśara states a two-way relationship: beings abide in Vishnu (as their inner Self), and Vishnu abides within all beings without exception—an antaryāmin teaching framed through name-etymology.
Avyaya highlights Vishnu’s unchanging supremacy: while beings arise and pass, the Lord remains imperishable, pervading and supporting all without undergoing decay.
