Verse 9.6

यथाऽऽकाशस्थितो नित्यं वायुः सर्वत्रगो महान्। तथा सर्वाणि भूतानि मत्स्थानीत्युपधारय।।9.6।।

yathākāśha-sthito nityaṁ vāyuḥ sarvatra-go mahān tathā sarvāṇi bhūtāni mat-sthānītyupadhāraya

Meaning

Yo, Krishna's sayin', it's like the wind – it's everywhere, but it's also chillin' in space. Get this: everything and everyone is low-key vibin' in Krishna.

Commentary

Okay, so Krishna is dropping some major knowledge here. He's using this wild analogy to explain the previous verses. It's like, the wind is everywhere, right? But it's also chillin' in space, no cap. Similarly, everything and everyone is vibing in Brahman, but without any, like, *actual* connection. It's not like they're attached or anything. So, what's the tea between Brahman and, like, everything else? Is it a *Samyoga*, *Samavaya*, or *Tadatmya Sambandha* thing? Think of a stick and a drum – that's *Samyoga*. But that doesn't work here because Brahman is infinite, and everything else is not. *Samavaya* is like, an attribute and the thing it's attached to, like your hand and your body. Nope, doesn't fit. *Tadatmya* is like, milk and water – they share some traits. But Brahman is, like, the ultimate GOAT, and everything else is... not. So, the only way to explain it is that everything is, like, superimposed on Brahman. It's all just a vibe, not a real thing. Brahman is the ultimate background, and everything else is just, like, a temporary overlay. It's all temporary, fam. Even Vayu, which is also the Hiranyagarbha, and Bhuta, which is like, your individual consciousness. It's all one big, cosmic flex. It's like, the ether in a pot – it's the same ether before, during, and after the pot exists. Same with individual souls and Brahman – they're not separate, before, during, or after life. It's all connected, but not really connected, you know?
