Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Significance
This name introduces the ‘antaryāmin’ (inner controller) doctrine. The Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad (3.7) contains the "Inner Controller" section, where Yājñavalkya teaches that there is one who dwells within earth, water, fire, sky, sun, directions, moon, the vital airs, speech, eye, ear, mind, and skin — controlling all from within, yet unknown to each. That inner controller is Viṣṇu as Bhūtātmā. **Bhagavad Gītā (13.2)
‘"Kṣetrajñaṃ cāpi māṃ viddhi sarva-kṣetreṣu Bhārata"‘ — "Know Me as the Kṣetrajña (knower of the field) in all fields." Bhūtātmā is the same truth expressed as a divine name.
