भावाद्वैतमुपाश्रित्य सत्ताद्वैतमयात्मकः ।
कर्माद्वैतमनादृत्य द्वैताद्वैतमयो भव ॥ २९ ॥

bhāvādvaitamupāśritya sattādvaitamayātmakaḥ |
karmādvaitamanādṛtya dvaitādvaitamayo bhava || 29 ||

Be of an even disposition, and rely on thy essence as one with the Supreme soul. Attend to thy multifarious duties, and thus be observant of unity in thy spiritual concerns, and dualities in thy temporal affairs.
