Verse 5

Tap any word for its meaning.

In plain words

Bracelet and crown are gold throughout. In the same way, the Veda declares the whole world, living and insentient, to shine as That, without the slightest separateness. That Reality, without beginning, middle or end—is it not you yourself?

Word for word

Just as bracelets, crowns and all such ornaments are gold alone, the Veda declares That as whose form the whole world, sentient and insentient, shines without the least separateness. Are you yourself not that Reality without beginning, middle or end?
