Verse 30

Tap any word for its meaning.

' ' ' ' । ॥ २९ ॥

In plain words

Passages beginning, 'They here, whether a tiger or...,' say that seeing non-difference makes one Svarāṭ—self-sovereign. The opposite vision, difference, leads into Saṃsāra: 'Those who understand otherwise, ruled by another, reach perishable worlds.' Every Vedic branch teaches this. So your earlier claim was false: 'I am a Brāhmaṇa's son of such a lineage, a saṃsārin distinct from Paramātman.'

Close to the Sanskrit

And with passages such as 'They here, a tiger or...,' after saying, 'He becomes Svarāṭ—self-sovereign,' through the vision of non-difference, the Śrutis show entry into Saṃsāra through the opposite vision of difference: 'But those who know otherwise than this, ruled by another, attain perishable worlds'—so in every Vedic branch. Therefore you did indeed speak falsely when you said: 'I am a Brāhmaṇa's son of such a lineage, a saṃsārin, different from Paramātman.'
