Bhagavad Gita 18.20

सर्वभूतेषु येनैकं भावमव्ययमीक्षते।अविभक्तं विभक्तेषु तज्ज्ञानं विद्धि सात्त्विकम्॥

sarva-bhūteṣhu yenaikaṁ bhāvam avyayam īkṣhate avibhaktaṁ vibhakteṣhu taj jñānaṁ viddhi sāttvikam

Translation

That by which one indestructible Being is seen in all beings, inseparate in the separated, know thou that knowledge as pure.

What it means

That by which one sees one indestructible being in all beings, undivided in the divided: know that knowledge to be sattvic. The highest knowledge is unitary vision. Seeing the same thing in everything is the definition of clarity.

Try this today

Sattvic knowing: the one in the many - unity as the highest information.

Something to reflect on

When did I last see the same one thing in everyone - and what did it dissolve?
