Hindi Translation (हिन्दी अर्थ)
जो एकत्व में स्थित होकर सब प्राणियों में स्थित मुझे भजता है — वह योगी सब प्रकार से व्यवहार करता हुआ भी मुझमें ही वर्तमान (स्थित) है।
English Translation
One who, established in unity, worships Me as dwelling in all beings — that yogi, however they may live and act, abides in Me.
Commentary (टीका)
Krishna reveals a remarkable truth: the yogi who worships God as present in all beings, established in the consciousness of oneness, always abides in God regardless of external circumstances or activities. This means spiritual realization does not require withdrawal from the world — one can engage in any activity and still remain in God-consciousness. This is the ultimate freedom of the realized soul.
