upādhināśād brahmaiva sad brahmāpyeti nirdvayam | śailūṣo veṣasadbhāvābhāvayoś ca yathā pumān ||21||
限定付帯（ウパーディ）の滅尽によって、真実（サット）はただブラフマンのみとなる。知者は不二のブラフマンに至る。衣装の有無にかかわらず俳優が同一であるように。
By the destruction of limiting adjuncts (upādhis), the real (sat) is Brahman alone; (the knower) attains Brahman—non-dual—just as a man who is an actor (is the same) in the presence or absence of costume.
