Uitleg

Krishna immediately qualifies what he has just said: beings do not rest in him either. He invites Arjuna to see his yoga aiśvara, his sovereign power. His self sustains beings and brings them into existence, yet is not located in them. The paradox resists a simple spatial picture. Krishna is neither a container nor something contained. Some traditions read this as saying that the world does not truly touch the highest; others that God sustains the world while remaining untouched by its limitations.
