The verse sums up the chapter's whole teaching in one formula.
It repeats 4.123 and 5.56: the firm contemplation “all is Brahman” frees.
Bheda-dṛṣṭi — “the sight of difference” — is named ignorance.
Here Vaiṣṇava Vedānta makes its distinction, and it is necessary, or the verse collides both with 5.57, where the three worlds are veins on the stone, and with 5.90, where the selfhood “I am distinct from all” is called good.
What is discarded is not every sight of difference, but bheda as disjunction: the view in which things stand by themselves, outside Him and outside one another.
The veins in the stone are different — and not disjoined. Difference within the one is not bheda-dṛṣṭi in the condemned sense.
This is, to say it in our terms, acintya-bheda-abheda: the difference is genuine, the disjunction is false.
