तथा निसे भनाशचकायन ८ नष्ट न होना ) क्य नाता है वह भी नह्मचर्ं ही है, वर्यो नते साधक ब्रहमचयके दवारा प्राप्त होता है दह यह आत्मा नष्ट नदी होता। देह के पदार्थ बदलते रहते हैं, पर जानने का बोध बना रहता है। यह पंक्ति उसी अंतर को कहती है — जो बदलता है वह आवरण है, जो जानता है वह निरंतर है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
