Verse 20

Tap any word for its meaning.

। ॥ २० ॥

In plain words

As Ātman is discerned from Anātman in Ātma–Anātma-viveka, Jñāna—true knowledge—settles beyond doubt. Awakened by the Guru, the Śiṣya goes beyond Śabda-brahman, Brahman known through words.

Close to the Sanskrit

Through Ātma–Anātma-viveka—discernment between Self and non-Self—Jñāna becomes unwavering. The Śiṣya, awakened by the Guru, passes beyond Śabda-brahman, Brahman as word.
