1. Everthing in this ever-changing universe is pervaded by that Supreme Being. Surrender up your world. Be supported by that understanding. Don't seek after material wealth.
2. In this world, perform your rightful work as a means to no end but living out your allotted hundred years or so. No other way exists where actions do not tie a person down.
3. Those worlds blinded by the cover of deep ignorance are named sunless. These killers of the Self reach for such a place of death.
4. Unmoving, nondual, faster than the mind, unreachable by divine senses, surpassing those who chase after despite Its staying still, by That the life force of fire and air supports the activities of all beings.
5. That moves and That does not move. That is far and That is also near. That is within all this and That is also outside all this.
6. Whosoever perceives all beings in the Self alone and the Self in all beings never feels any opposition.
7. As all beings have become the Self alone for the seer who understands, what attachment and what sorrow is there for that one who sees unceasingly such oneness?
8. That is all-pervading and resplendent; formless, unscathed, and without muscle; pure, spotless, and omniscient; transcendent, self-existent, and perfectly allotting all things throughout an eternity of time.
9. Those who follow avidya fall into its blinding ignorance but those who engage with vidya alone enter as though into a greater darkness.
10. Indeed what they say by knowledge is different and what they say by nescience is different. Thus we have heard from the wise who reveal that to us.
11. There is vidya and avidya and that who knows both together. By avidya, death is overcome and by vidya, immortality is attained.
