सर्वोपाधिविनिर्मुक्तं चैतन्यं च निरन्तरम् ।तद्ब्रह्माहमिति ज्ञात्वा कथं वर्णाश्रमी भवेत् ॥ ४ ॥
In plain words
Free of every limiting condition, pure awareness, without a single gap — having known "I am that Brahman," how could you go on being a caste and a stage of life?
Close to the Sanskrit
Free from every limiting adjunct, and consciousness, unbroken — having known 'I am that Brahman,' how would one be a possessor of class and life-stage?
