Sanskrit Original
Bhagwān potānā bhaktamā rahe chhe te pātra pramāṇe rahe chhe, te jem jem moṭā bhagavadī tem tem temā visheṣhpaṇe rahe chhe.
God resides in his devotees according to their suitability. The greater the devotee, the greater the extent to which he resides in him.1 Footnotes: 1. 1. This vat is based on Vachanamrut Gadhada I-41 in which Shriji Maharaj explains: “Purushottam Bhagwān enters and dwells in all of the above as their cause and antaryāmi. However, He does not manifest in Prakruti-Purush to the extent He manifests in Akshar; and He does not manifest in Pradhān-Purush to the extent that He manifests in Prakruti-Purush; and He does not manifest in mahattattva and the rest of the 24 elementsEN-2 to the extent that He manifests in Pradhān-Purush; and He does not manifest in Virāt-Purush to the extent that He manifests in the 24 elements... Purushottam Bhagwān manifests in various entities with various degrees of power according to the task to be accomplished through that entity.” Based on this narrative, the extent in which Purushottam Bhagwan resides in Aksharbrahman Satpurush is not equal to the extent he resides in any other entity.
