What Verse 12 is showing us
One devotional arc: Lord Vishnu dwells within every element and heart (Vasuh), possessing a pure and gracious mind overflowing with goodwill (Vasumanah). He is the eternal, unwavering truth (Satyah) and the identical essence within all diversity (Samatma). Comprehended through genuine love and devotion (Sammitah), He maintains perfect equanimity toward all beings (Samah). His grace and intent are never in vain (Amoghah), watching the cosmos through tender lotus eyes (Pundarikakshah). Every act of His is righteous (Vrishakarma), and His very form is the living embodiment of dharma (Vrishakritih).
