established that the supreme Lord is very greatly<br />

different from all beings, and is also<br />

Unconditioned [Free from all modifications that<br />

things are subject to.] and One. He sees who thus<br />

sees the supreme Lord as described. Objection: Is it<br />

not that all poeple see? What is the need of<br />

specification? Reply: True, they see; but they see<br />

contrarily! Hence the Lord specifies, 'He alone<br />

sees'. As in comparison with one who, suffering<br />

from the (eye) disease called Timira, sees many<br />

moons, the person who sees one moon is<br />

distingusihed by saying, 'He alone sees,' similarly,<br />

here as well, the man who sees the one undivided<br />

Self as described above is distinguished from those<br />

who contrarily see many and differentiated selves,<br />

by saying 'He alone sees'. Others, though seeing,<br />

do not see because they see contrarily like the<br />

person who sees many moons. This is the meaning.<br />

The obove-described true knowledge has to be<br />

praised by stating its result. Hence the verse<br />

begins:<br />

13.29 Since by seeing equally God who is present<br />

alike everywhere he does not injure the Self by the<br />

Self, therefore he attains the supreme Goal.<br />
