In whom the Self has become all beings, where can there be any delusion, any sorrow, for that man of discernment who sees only the Oneness?  

He is all-encompassing, luminous, bodiless, without organs, beyond disease, pure and untouched by evil. The Seer, the guide of the mind, all-pervading, self-existent, he ordained all objects according to their nature from eternal equanimity. 

Into blinding darkness enter those who worship ignorance. Into even greater darkness, as it were, fall those who are attached to knowledge.  

Ignorance is of one movement, they declare, and knowledge of the other. Thus have we heard from the wise who related to truth to us.
