In this profound paradox, Krishna reveals the nature of His 'Divine Yoga' (Aishwaram Yogam), challenging our standard perception of space, causality, and containment. He declares that while all beings exist within Him, He is not truly contained by them, nor is He dependent upon them for His existence. This points to the subtle Advaitic truth that the substratum (Brahman) is never limited or modified by the appearances that manifest within it. Just as the space within a pot does not 'hold' the space within the room in a physical sense, nor does the pot's destruction diminish the space, the Divine Self remains eternally transcendent and immutable even while appearing as the manifold universe. Furthermore, Krishna describes Himself as 'Bhuta-bhrit' (the sustainer) and 'Bhuta-bhavana' (the source of existence). This implies that God is not a distant clockmaker who set the world in motion and stepped away, nor is He trapped inside the world as a prisoner of His own creation. Rather, the entire cosmos is an expression of His internal potency (Maya). By urging Arjuna to 'behold' this divine power, Krishna invites him to shift his identity from the localized, suffering ego to the all-encompassing, formless Reality that is simultaneously the support of all forms and entirely untouched by their limitations.

The Divine is the absolute substratum that supports the entire manifestation without being bound, defined, or limited by it.
