The Supreme Lord Personality of Godhead supersoul of everyone and the protector of the righteous, while thus being observed by him, became at once out of sight even though He is dressed by all directions and without being limited by time and space.

Child Parikshit was observing not a living being who is limited by time and space. This means that there is gulf of difference between the Lord and the individual living being. The Lord is mentioned herein as the Supreme Living Being without being limited by time and space. Every living being is limited by time and space. Even though a living being is qualitatively one with the Lord, still quantitatively there is a great difference between the Supreme Soul and the common individual soul. In the Bhagwat Geeta both the living beings and the Supreme Being is said to be all pervading (yena sarvam idam tatam) still there is difference between these two kinds of all pervasiveness. A common living being or soul can be all pervading within his own limited space of body but the Supreme Living Being is all pervading in all space or all time. A common living being cannot extend its influence over another common living being by its all pervasiveness but the Supreme Super-Soul, the Personality of Godhead is unlimitedly potential to exert His influence over all place and all time and over all living beings. And because He is all pervasive without any limitation of time and space, He could appear Himself even within the womb of the mother of child Parikshit. He is mentioned herein as the protector of the righteous. Anyone who is a surrendered soul unto the Supreme, is righteous and he is protected by the Lord at all circumstances specifically. He is indirect protector of the unrighteous also by rectifying their sins through His external potency. The Lord is mentioned herein as the one who is dressed by the ten directions. This means dressed by the garments of the ten sides up and down, He is present everywhere and can appear and disappear at His will from everywhere and anywhere. His disappearance from the sight of the child Parikshit does not mean that he appeared on the spot from any other place. He was present there and even after His disappearance He was there although invisible to the eyes as of the child. This material covering of the effulgent firmament is also something like the womb of mother nature, and we are all put into the womb by the Lord, the father of all living beings. As such He is present everywhere even in this material womb of mother Durga (the goddess of fortress) and amongst those who are deserving can also see the Lord.

Child Parīkṣit was not observing a living being who is limited by time and space. There is a gulf of difference between the Lord and the individual living being. The Lord is mentioned herein as the supreme living being unlimited by time and space. Every living being is limited by time and space. Even though a living being is qualitatively one with the Lord, quantitatively there is a great difference between the Supreme Soul and the common individual soul. In the #i#Bhagavad-gītā#/i# both the living beings and the Supreme Being are said to be all-pervading (#i#yena sarvam idaṁ tatam#/i#), yet there is a difference between these two kinds of all-pervasiveness. A common living being or soul can be all-pervading within his own limited body, but the supreme living being is all-pervading in all space and all time. A common living being cannot extend its influence over another common living being by its all-pervasiveness, but the Supreme Supersoul, the Personality of Godhead, is unlimitedly able to exert His influence over all places and all times and over all living beings. And because He is all-pervasive, unlimited by time and space, He can appear even within the womb of the mother of child Parīkṣit. He is mentioned herein as the protector of the righteous. Anyone who is a surrendered soul unto the Supreme is righteous, and he is specifically protected by the Lord in all circumstances. The Lord is the indirect protector of the unrighteous also, for He rectifies their sins through His external potency. The Lord is mentioned herein as one who is dressed in the ten directions.

He is present everywhere, even in this material womb of mother Durgā, and those who are deserving can see the Lord.
