- OṂ—this whole world is that syllable!
- Here is a further explanation of it.
- The past, the present, and the future—all that is simply OṂ;
- and whatever else that is beyond the three times, that also is simply OṂ—
- for this brahman is the Whole.
- Brahman is this self (ātman) ("ayam ātmā brahma").
- Verses 1–2
- Accordingly, the very self (ātman) is OṂ.
- Anyone who knows this enters the self (ātman) by himself (ātman).
- Verse 12
