The Yoga of the Field and the Knower of the Field

Krishna describes the all-pervading nature of the Supreme. The Supreme has hands and feet everywhere, eyes, heads, and faces everywhere, ears everywhere. It exists in the world, enveloping all. This doesn't mean the Supreme has physical limbs. It means the Supreme is present everywhere—in every hand, every foot, every eye, every form. The Supreme pervades everything. Most people see only diversity—different people, different forms, different experiences. They think: 'We're all separate. Everyone is different.' But they're seeing only the field—diverse, changing, separate. They don't recognize the unity behind diversity. When you understand the Supreme's all-pervading nature, you see the unity behind diversity. Every individual consciousness is connected to the Supreme Consciousness. The field is diverse—many bodies, many forms. But the knower—the Supreme—is one, pervading all. Diversity is in the field. Unity is in the knower. When you recognize this, you see beyond the field to the knower that pervades it. You recognize your connection to all through the Supreme. You're not isolated in the field. You're connected through the knower—the Supreme that pervades all. This understanding creates unity where there seemed to be only diversity.
