1 Gita Sloka  Every Day - Chapter 13 - Kshetra Kshetrajna Yoga - Sloka 27

Ganga descending from Heaven

How does the jnani behold the Paramatman?

Samam sarveshu bhuteshu tishthantam parameshwaram I

Vinashyatsu avinashyantam yah pashyati sah pashyati II sloka 27

समम् सर्वेषु भूतेषु तिष्ठन्तां परमेश्वरम् I 

विनष्यस्तु अविनश्यन्तं यः पश्यति सः पश्यति II  श्लोक 27

He who sees, the supreme Lord, dwelling alike in all bodies, and never perishing when they perish, he sees indeed.

He who sees the atman as it really is - he is the one who sees the atman as a distinct entity in all embodied beings that are composed of prakriti and Purusa, even in bodies of diverse nature as gods, men etc. The true seer is one who sees atman as the supreme ruler in all these bodies as the imperishable self, though the bodies are subject to destruction. Conversely the purport is that he sees who sees the atman, only as characterised by the unequal forms of the bodies as men, gods, etc. and as possessed of birth, death etc. -  such a person is caught up perpetually in the transmigratory existence.
