Know Thyself: Lord has the imperishable light

By Sri M

In the Shvetashvatara Upanishad—the Upanishad of the White Horse—the following occurs in the description of the Supreme Cosmic person:

Sarvanana sirogrivah sarvabhutaguhasayah |

Sarvavyapi sa bhagavamstasmat sarvagatah sivah ||

This is how it describes the Supreme Person who is referred to, in the Prasnopanishad by Pippalada, as the One with sixteen parts.

Sarvavyapi sa bhagavamstasmat sarvagatah sivah ||

Meaning: He who is in the faces, the heads and necks of all, and also dwells in the cave of all beings.

Many commentators have modified ‘Sarvabhutaguhasayah’ by saying: ‘In the cave of the heart of all beings’ meaning who dwells in secret, hidden in all beings.

Sarvavyapi sa bhagavan

Okay? He who is all-pervading; even though he dwells in the heart of all beings, he is all-pervading,

He is the Lord; he is also none other than,

Tasmat sarvagatah sivah

The omnipresent Sivah; the Supreme Being. He indeed is the great Lord, the impeller of the highest Being. He has the power of reaching the purest attainment. He is the ruler, the imperishable light.

The Bhagavatam describes Bhagavan as one who has complete lordship, righteousness, fame, prosperity, wisdom and renunciation.
