यथात्मा दृश्यतामेति द्वित्वैक्यभ्रमदायिनीम् ।
श्रृणु तत्ते प्रवक्ष्यामि वक्ष्यमाणकथागमैः ॥ ४४ ॥

yathātmā dṛśyatāmeti dvitvaikyabhramadāyinīm |
śrṛṇu tatte pravakṣyāmi vakṣyamāṇakathāgamaiḥ || 44 ||

Hear now Rama! what I am going to tell of the manner, in which the soul is to be seen in this phenomenal world, which is the cause of misleading the mind from its knowledge of the unity to the erroneous notion of the duality.
