The word 'ātman' here refers to 'paramātmān' , i.e. the Lord. The word 'vijugupsate' indicates without fear. Vedic testimonial from 'saukarāyaṇa' is quoted to substantiate the traditional understanding.
सर्वगं परमात्मानं सर्वं च परमात्मनि। यः पश्येत् स भयाभावान्नात्मानं गोप्तुमिच्छति॥
sarvagaṁ paramātmānaṁ sarvaṁ ca paramātmani। yaḥ paśyet sa bhayābhāvānnātmānaṁ goptumicchati॥
[सर्वगं (sarvagaṁ): all-pervading; परमात्मानं (paramātmānaṁ): the supreme essence; सर्वं (sarvam): all; च (ca): and; परमात्मनि (paramātmani): in the supreme self; यः (yaḥ): whoever; पश्येत् (paśyet): perceives; सः (saḥ): that person; भयाभावात् (bhayābhāvāt): from the absence of fear; न (na): not; आत्मानं (ātmānaṁ): oneself; गोप्तुमिच्छति (goptumicchati): desires to protect or preserve; ]
Whoever perceives the all-pervading supreme essence in all and all in the supreme essence, that person, from the absence of fear, desires not to protect oneself.
