ममैवांशो जीवलोके ममैवांशो जीवलोके जीवभूत: सनातन: ।

मन:षष्ठानीन्द्रियाणि प्रकृतिस्थानि कर्षति ॥15.7॥

English Couplets

A spark ascends, a light takes flight,

To join the flame, and know its might.

A single drop-soul, released in world to roam,

Self-discovers to find ocean 'n calls it home.

A timeless God, a spirit bright,

Finds union in the endless light.

Self-knowing, a whispered plea,

The soul gets at peace, eternally.
