evaá¹-vidhaá¹ tvÄá¹ sakalÄtmanÄm api

evam-vidham - as thus described; tvÄm - You; sakala - of all; ÄtmanÄm - souls; api - indeed; sva-ÄtmÄnam - the very Soul; Ätma-ÄtmatayÄ - as the Supersoul; vicaká¹£ate - they see; guru - from the spiritual master; arka - who is like the sun; labdha - received; upaniá¹£at - of confidential knowledge; su-caká¹£uá¹£Ä - by the perfect eye; ye - who; te - they; taranti - cross over; iva - easily; bhava - of material existence; aná¹›ta - which is not real; ambudhim - the ocean.
Those who have received the clear vision of knowledge from the sunlike spiritual master can see You in this way, as the very Soul of all souls, the Supersoul of everyone’s own self. Thus understanding Your original personality, they are able to cross over the ocean of illusory material existence.
As confirmed in the Bhagavad-gÄ«tÄ (4.9):
janma karma ca me divyam
evaṠyo vetti tattvataḥ
tyaktvÄ dehaá¹ punar janma
naiti mÄm eti so ’rjuna
“One who knows the transcendental nature of My appearance and activities does not, upon leaving the body, take his birth again in this material world, but attains My eternal abode, O Arjuna.â€
