mām ātmānaṁ svayaṁ-jyotiḥ

mām ātmānaṁ svayaṁ-jyotiḥ

sarva-bhūta-guhāśayam

ātmany evātmanā vīkṣya

viśoko 'bhayam ṛcchasi

Seeing me, self-effulgent, dwelling in the hearts of all beings, as antaryamī in your heart by your intelligence, free from lamentation, you will achieve fearlessness.

This form has been mentioned:

 

kecit sva-dehāntar-hṛdayāvakāśe

prādeśa-mātraṁ puruṣaṁ vasantam

catur-bhujaṁ kañja-rathāṅga-śaṅkha-

gadā-dharaṁ dhāraṇayā smaranti

 

Others conceive of the Lord, residing within the body in the region of the heart and measuring only eight inches, with four hands carrying a lotus, a wheel of a chariot, a conchshell and a club respectively. SB 2.2.8

 

You will see the antaryāmī, Śukla, within yourself (ātmani), by your intelligence (ātmanā).

|| 3.24.40||

mātra ādhyātmikīṁ vidyāṁ

śamanīṁ sarva-karmaṇām

vitariṣye yayā cāsau

bhayaṁ cātitariṣyati

I will give to my mother spiritual knowledge which ends all karmas, by which she will also attain fearlessness.

Because I am the Lord acting as her son, you do not have to worry about what will happen to Devahūti, your wife.

|| 3.24.41||

maitreya uvāca

evaṁ samuditas tena

kapilena prajāpatiḥ

dakṣiṇī-kṛtya taṁ prīto

vanam eva jagāma ha

After Kapila had spoken to him in this way, Kardama, pleased, circumambulated him and left for the forest.

Samuditaḥ means “being spoken to fully.”  After circumambulating (dakṣiṇī-kṛtya) the Lord, he left.

|| 3.24.42||

vrataṁ sa āsthito maunam

ātmaika-śaraṇo muniḥ

niḥsaṅgo vyacarat kṣoṇīm

anagnir aniketanaḥ

Accepting the vow of silence, taking exclusive shelter of the Lord, he wandered the earth alone, without fire and without shelter.
