yaj-jñātvā na punar-moham eva yāsyasi pāṇḍava |
yena bhūtāny-aśeṣeṇa drakṣyasy-ātman-yatho mayi || 35 ||

Translation

Knowing which you, O Pandava, will never again be deluded in this manner. For by this you shall perceive all the beings in Self and them in Me.

Purport

In earlier Shloka Bhagvan Shri Krishna explained one method to acquire true knowledge is to approach some enlighten seer and enquired about the truth humbly and offering your services.
In this Shloka Bhagvan explains the aftermath of achieving the knowledge. Shri Krishna explained that once a person knows the truth he is not deluded in material variations of this mortal world. Confusion exists until human knows the absolute truth.

In the next line, Bhagvan Shri Krishna then explains what exactly is the absolute truth? Bhagvan said that all the multitudes in the material world are but the manifestation of his potency. His power resides in every living being. In this way one who knows the truth realizes my presence in every living being. The same fact has been explained in many other Shlokas in Shrimad Bhagvad Gita. This very principle is one of the core principles of Sanatan Dharma and duly explained in Vedas, Upnishads, and Puranas.
