Being's second great resolve — and perhaps the tenderest verse of the chapter: "let me enter them with this living ātman (anena jīvenātmanā) and unfold names and forms". Having created heat, waters and food, Being did not remain an overseer from outside — It entered. The world is not abandoned like a manufactured article; it is inhabited by its Maker from within, and every name and form is unfolded by his presence.
The words anena jīvena ātmanā — "with this living Self" — are precious to the Vedānta of bhakti: the jīva, the living soul, is here called Being's own — his ray, his living presence in every body, neither identical with him nor alien to him. The Lord enters creation as the soul of all souls and remains himself: "Pervading this whole universe with a fragment of Myself, I abide" (BG 10.42). The entering did not dissolve the Enterer.
Nāma-rūpa, "name and form", has ever since been Vedānta's term for the manifest world: everything that is, is someone's name and someone's shape, pronounced by Being from within. The world is not mute matter: it is all the speech of the One who entered.
