COMMENTARY-SUMMARY TRANSLATION
This is the Inner Soul who is in all and is realisable. This Savita ( the sun ) who is visible to all is purusha, a personality. This is Brahmanaspati, the lord of Vak; he is the god outside our bodies but is also the chief vital force within. This is the inner view. This is he, whose existence is proved indirectly also. He is above all. He is Atma, the pure spiritual energy. He is Existence itself, and is the lord of all existence. He is a seer, all-seeing witness. He who is here as Atmā, with the help of his tapas (power to concentrate) and the help of his mind which can take purely an objective view sees all worlds which are outside. He sees them within himself also with his insight. Thus, directly, indirectly and by inward realisation and by equating the things within and without, the seer expresses by this hymn, the truth of existence which he has experienced.
Cf: "He who is in the individual and who is (in the orb of) Aditya are identical" (Tait. Up. III, 10-4). "The Purusha in Aditya is this I" (Yaju. Sam). Who is this Purusha in the form of Aditya is myself" (Is. Up. 16). So the statement in this mantra has support in Brāhmaṇa and Upanishad. Thus, the truth stated in the Vedas and Upanishads is to be interpreted spiritually and experienced by individual insight. Truth is a matter for realisation.
