Word by word

Tap a word to reveal its meaning. Say each one aloud as you go.

In English

It is within all beings, yet outside; motionless yet moving; too subtle to be perceived; far away yet ever near.

Translated by Shri Purohit Swami

It is within and without all beings, both the unmoving and the moving; It is subtle and unknowable, and It is near and far away.

Translated by Swami Sivananda
