Whatever features visibly exist within this world — small or great, thin or stout — certainly contain both the material nature and its enjoyer, the spirit soul.

Translation
Whatever products exist within this world—small or big, thin or fat—all are a combination matter and the soul.
The cause pervades the effects. The bodies arising as effects or products (bhāvāḥ) are all endowed with prakṛti and jīva.

Personal Guidance
Whatever exists — small or great, thin or stout — contains both material nature and its enjoyer, the spirit soul. Every phenomenon has both ingredients.
Reflection Questions
- When I look at any object, do I notice both ingredients?
- What practice trains this double seeing?
