In plain words
What must be let go is these worldly notions; what must be known is the divine principle of the jīva; where one must go is the feet of the state of Brahman; can anyone tell what Ānanda then arises!
Satya is what lies beyond past, future and present
This life, bound up with nirveda, turns into Veda the moment the sacred principle becomes clear to it, and divinity emerges with purity. That is the Veda. Veda may be said to mean understanding, awareness and Viveka. To recognise one's own existence, to recognise the bond between oneself and the moving and unmoving world that stands around one as support and shelter, and to act on it. This is the gift that the vāṅmaya of the Veda has given! This is Viveka; this is Vijñāna. Jñāna is infinite. Jñāna is what shows Satya. Satya is what lies beyond past, future and present time. Satya and Jñāna, both of them, are infinite. Of these, which have no end, it may be said that there is no beginning either. The Veda is what is bound up with Satya and Jñāna, which have neither beginning nor end. The Veda too is without beginning or end! It is human nature to regard this Veda, which is all wisdom, as vāṅmaya. It is meant for practice, not for worship.
Because the maharṣis of Bhārata recognised this truth from time without beginning and lived by it, this sacredness has gone on spreading through the world even to this day. The utterances, the very words of these maharṣis became mantras. The acts they performed became the sacrificial rites. The prayers they offered in those days took shape as song. In short, it can be shown that speech is the Ṛgveda, Manas is the Yajurveda and prāṇa is the Sāmaveda. “The whole world is filled with the Veda.” The Veda is what explains, in small words and one by one, the supreme principle that pervades, hidden, every atom and every particle in the world.
