But distinct is the Supreme Purusha called the highest Self, the indestructible Lord Who, pervading the three worlds, sustains them.

But there is another, the highest Person, called the supreme self, the imperishable Lord who enters the three worlds and sustains them.

Beyond the perishable and the imperishable there is another, the highest person, called the supreme self (paramātman). He enters the three worlds and sustains them, and he himself is unchanging and is their Lord (īśvara). The verse speaks of a reality that is both transcendent and active in the world. Some traditions read the three persons as distinct, others as levels of a single truth, but all see this verse as the summit of the chapter's teaching.
