Verse 9.29

समोऽहं सर्वभूतेषु न मे द्वेष्योऽस्ति न प्रियः। ये भजन्ति तु मां भक्त्या मयि ते तेषु चाप्यहम्।।9.29।।

samo ’haṁ sarva-bhūteṣhu na me dveṣhyo ’sti na priyaḥ ye bhajanti tu māṁ bhaktyā mayi te teṣhu chāpyaham

Meaning

I'm totally equal-opportunity with everyone; no one's on my bad side or my good side. But those who worship me with devotion? They're in me, and I'm in them. No biggie.

Commentary

Okay, so like, the Lord is totally unbiased. It's not like they're shading anyone or showing faves. No hate, no love, just vibes. It's all about the ego, though. If you're all up in your own head, you're building this massive wall between you and the Supreme Being. But the Lord is, like, *right there*, closer than your own breath. Think of it like fire—it warms those who get close, but not the ones who stay far away. Same with the Lord's grace—it's all about devotion. It's like, the sun's light is everywhere, but it only reflects in a clean mirror, right? The Lord is everywhere, but only shows up for those who've, like, *actually* cleansed their minds through devotion. No cap, the sun doesn't care about the mirror or the pot, and the Kalpavriksha doesn't have faves. It just gives good stuff to those who approach it. Devotion is key, fam.
