Explanation

One united in yoga sees the Self present in all beings and all beings in the Self, seeing with an equal eye everywhere.

Meditation's fruit is not withdrawal from the world but a new way of seeing it: the same Self in everyone. This echoes the Isha Upanishad's teaching that one who sees all beings in the Self no longer hates.

भावार्थ

योग से युक्त आत्मा वाला मनुष्य सब प्राणियों में आत्मा को और आत्मा में सब प्राणियों को देखता है, और सर्वत्र समदर्शी होता है।
