 VIVEKACHUDAMANI 223

514. I am verily that Brahman^ the One without a second, which transcends the endless differentiations of Maya, is the in- most essence of all^ beyond the range of consciousness, — which is Truth, Knowl' edge^ Infinitude, and Bliss Absolute.

[ Maya — Same as Prakriti or Avyakta.

Trtith — may be translated as Existence. Thi» line sets forth the Szuarnpa Lakshana or essentia! characteristics of Brahman, as distinct from It* Tatastha Lakshana or indirect attributes, such a* creatorship of the universe and so on. ]

515. I am withoait activity, changeless^ without parts, formless, absolute, eternal,, wdthout any other support, the One with- out a second.

[ Without support: Brahman is Itself Its- own support. ]
