यो हि विष्णुः स एवात्मा यो ह्यात्मासौ जनार्दनः ।
विष्ण्वात्मशब्दौ पर्यायौ यथा विटपिपादपौ ॥ ६ ॥

yo hi viṣṇuḥ sa evātmā yo hyātmāsau janārdanaḥ |
viṣṇvātmaśabdau paryāyau yathā viṭapipādapau || 6 ||

And Vishnu is the same with his spirit or the soul of man, and the human soul is the same with Vishnu (which means the inherent spirit); Vishnu and the soul are synonymous terms as the plant and the vegetable.
