Gīta Bhāshya 9.05

The secret phenomenon is unlike ordinary phenomenon perceived on earth. Even though all beings exist in the Lord, He is not in them. That entity is neither visible to the eye nor perceivable by touch. Comes to awareness and at the same time unaware. His very body is 'mahat', the manifest form of the universe.

मत्स्थत्वेऽपि यथा पृथिव्यां स्पृष्ट्वा स्थितानि न तथा मयि इत्याह - न चेति।
