# The Supersoul within
*The Supersoul (Paramātmā) is the localized aspect of the Supreme Lord who resides in the heart of every living being. As the eternal witness and friend, He accompanies the soul through all its transmigrations, sanctioning its desires and guiding it toward ultimate liberation. While the individual soul knows only its own body, the Supersoul knows all bodies and all souls.*
