ब्रह्म सर्वमिदं विश्वं विश्वातीतं च तत्पदम् ।
वस्तुतस्तु जगन्नास्ति सर्वं ब्रह्मैव केवलम् ॥ ३० ॥

brahma sarvamidaṃ viśvaṃ viśvātītaṃ ca tatpadam |
vastutastu jagannāsti sarvaṃ brahmaiva kevalam || 30 ||

The whole universe is Brahma, and yet He is beyond all this. In reality the world is a nullity, for all is Brahma alone.
