Verse 289

Tap any word for its meaning.

। ॥ २८९ ॥

In plain words

So all of this, which shows up in you only because you are confused, is simply false — not real, not for a moment. See that for yourself, directly. You yourself are brahman, and its very nature is happiness. Nothing at all stands apart from you. Sift this out and settle it in your own mind.

Therefore this, appearing in you to one who is deluded, is merely false, certainly not real — know this directly. You alone are brahman, whose very nature is happiness; nothing is separate from you — ascertain this in your intellect.
