arjuna uvaca

purusam sasvatam divyamadidevamajam vibhum
ahnstvamcayah sarve devarsiruaradastatha
asito devalo vyasah svayam caiva bravisi me

Comment:-
Pared' brahma parah dhama pavitram paramam bhavan:- Arjuna, while praising Lord Krsna, says to Him, that He is the Supreme Imperishable Brahma, as He said to him in response to his question (Gita 8/3), He is the Supreme Abode in Whom the entire universe rests (Gila 9/18). And He is the most sacred.
'Purusam sasvatam divyamadidevamajam vibbmn ahustvamrcayab sarve devarsirnaradastatha asito devalo vyasah svayam caiva bravisi me'—In the holy books, such as the Mahabharata etc., the sages,[1] celestial sage Narada,[2] other sage Asita and his son, sage Devala[3] and also great sage Vyasa[4] have acclaimed'Him as Eternal, Divine Person, Primeval God, Unborn and Omnipresent.
As soul, He is eternal (Gitd 2/20), as formless and having attributes, He is Divine Person (Gita 8/10), as the source of gods and great seers, He is the Prime Deity (Gita 10/2). The ignorant folk do not recognize Him, as the unborn (Gita 7/25) while the undeluded know Him, as unborn (Gita 10/3). All the universe, is pervaded by- Him, in His unmanifest form (Gita 9/4) and He Himself declares, that He is Omnipresent in this verse.
