Verse 5.73.1

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
एवंविचारया दृष्ट्या द्वैतत्यागेन राघव ।
स्वभावः प्राप्यते तज्ज्ञैस्तज्ज्ञैश्चिन्तामणिर्यथा ॥ १ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
evaṃvicārayā dṛṣṭyā dvaitatyāgena rāghava |
svabhāvaḥ prāpyate tajjñaistajjñaiścintāmaṇiryathā || 1 ||

Vasishtha continued:—It is by reasoning in this manner, and renouncing the knowledge of duality, that the gnostic comes to know the nature of his soul; as the gods know the Divine nature which is the gem of their meditation—Chintamani.
