Verse 9.5

न च मत्स्थानि भूतानि पश्य मे योगमैश्वरम्। भूतभृन्न च भूतस्थो ममात्मा भूतभावनः।।9.5।।

na cha mat-sthāni bhūtāni paśhya me yogam aiśhwaram bhūta-bhṛin na cha bhūta-stho mamātmā bhūta-bhāvanaḥ

Meaning

No cap, beings aren't actually *in* me. My divine Yoga is what keeps everything going, but it's not, like, *in* them. It's my Self, the ultimate creator.

Commentary

Brahman, or the Self, is like, totally chill and unattached. It's, like, formless and super subtle, so it's not vibing with any objects. There's no real connection between matter and Spirit, no cap. Something with a form can't connect with something formless. It's all about detachment. Brahman supports everything, but it's not, like, *in* anything. It's the ultimate cause, the OG creator, but it's not stuck in the mix. It's a total mind-bender. Think of it like a dream—the dreamer isn't *in* the dream. Or air in a container. Brahman's not in the body or anything else. That connection is totally an illusion. Brahman is the support, but it's not affected by the stuff superimposed on it. It's like, a rope looks like a snake, but the rope is still just a rope. That's superimposition.
