मया त्वेवमहंभावः परिज्ञातो यदाखिलः ।
तदा मे विद्यमानोऽपि निष्फलः शरदभ्रवत् ॥ २७ ॥

mayā tvevamahaṃbhāvaḥ parijñāto yadākhilaḥ |
tadā me vidyamāno'pi niṣphalaḥ śaradabhravat || 27 ||

In this manner, no sooner was I fully convinced of the futility of egoism, than I lost the sense of my personality; and though I retained fully the consciousness of myself, yet I got freed from my selfishness, as a light autumnal cloud by disloading its watery burden.
