So one puruṣa, the living entity, ātmā, and another puruṣa is Paramātmā. Sometimes the Māyāvādī philosophers, they do not distinguish between ātmā and Paramātmā. But here it is distinctly explained by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, that one puruṣa is enjoying the fruits of his activities, prakṛti-sthaḥ. Being influenced by the quality of the prakṛti, material nature, he is sad-asad-janma-yoniṣu, he is taking birth in different types and species of life. And another puruṣa is there who is upadraṣṭā. Upadraṣṭā means he is overseer. He is simply seeing how the other puruṣa is working. And according to his karma, work, he is giving the result. He is the witness.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Īśvaraḥ the Supreme Lord, Kṛṣṇa, is sitting within everyone&amp;#039;s heart, and He&amp;#039;s witness, anumantā-upadraṣṭā. Upadraṣṭā means He&amp;#039;s seeing our activity. He&amp;#039;s noting what I desire, because our desires are coming one after another, one after another. So according to our desire, Kṛṣṇa is so kind, He gives you a body. Īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ hṛd-deśe &amp;#039;rjuna tiṣṭhati ([[Vanisource:BG 18.61|BG 18.61]]). Īśvara, the Supreme Lord, is sitting within the heart of everyone. So... And sarva-bhūtānāṁ hṛd-deśe &amp;#039;rjuna tiṣṭhati bhrāmayan. And He&amp;#039;s giving us chance to transmigrate to different types of bodies or species of bodies. He&amp;#039;s noting down that &amp;quot;This soul is very much fond of fresh blood and raw meat. All right. You take the body of a tiger. Yes. This soul feels pleasure being naked. All right, you take the body of a tree. You stand up naked for ten thousand years.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
