तथैकब्रह्मचिद्रूपे पवनस्पन्दने यथा ।
अत्राचिद्बोधता सर्गो मोक्षो ब्रह्मैकबोधता ॥ ३६ ॥

tathaikabrahmacidrūpe pavanaspandane yathā |
atrācidbodhatā sargo mokṣo brahmaikabodhatā || 36 ||

The Knowledge of the action of the divine Intellect, as distinct from the invariable of Brahma, is the cause of our making a distinction of the creation from its creator; just as our knowledge of the difference of the wind from air, causes us to think of their duality. It is therefore our want of this distinction, and the knowledge of the unity of Brahma, that leads us to our liberation.
