How is this contradiction possible in him? All the contradictions merge in him, because He is without, and within all beings and He constitutes both animate and inanimate creation viz., there is no existence except Him. He is farthest as well as nearest.[1]He is incomprehensible because of his subtlety viz., He is beyond the reach of sense and mind. So there is no contradiction in Him.(15) Why is there no contradiction in Him, O Lord? Though indivisible yet He seems to be divided among beings—(things-). He is to be known as the creator, sustainer and destroyer viz., He Himself takes the form of creation, sustenance and destruction. He should be explored.(16) |

References and Context
- ↑ Far and near can be in three ways—place, time and thing. As far as place is concerned, he is farthest as well as nearest. So far as time is concerned, He was in the past, He is at present and He will remain in future. As the things are concerned, He existed before the things came into existence, will remain when they are destroyed and He is now in the form of things.This verse is the gist of this topic. If we understand this verse in the right perspective and meditate on its theme we come to know that God is everywhere, all the time, in all the things and then this feeling will remain with us automatically whether we are in solitude or in practical life.
