13.17 And undivided, yet It exists as if divided in beings; It is to be known as the supporter of being; It devours and It generates.

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaEnglish

Although the Supersoul appears to be divided among all beings, He is never divided. He is situated as one. Although He is the maintainer of every living entity, it is to be understood that He devours and develops all.
