udārāḥ sarva evaitaṃ jñānī tvātmaiva me matam |
āsthitaḥ sa hi yuktātmā māmevānuttamāṃ gatim || 18 ||

18. Noble indeed, are all these, but I deem the wise to be My very Self; for he, being fully
integrated, is devoted exclusively to Me as the highest goal.

Commentary

“Because they worship Me alone, all these are noble i.e, magnanimous. For, those who accept anything from Me, however small, I consider them as contributing everything to Me [and thus as My benefactors]. But I consider the wise to be My very Self — I consider Myself to be dependent on the wise for My support. How come? Because the wise consider Me to be the highest and find it impossible to support themselves without Me; I also find it impossible to be without them.”
