Jñāna-pradarśanam
उपाधिरहितं ब्रह्म स्वप्रकाशं निरञ्जनम् । अहमेवेति निश्चित्य परां शान्तिमवाप्तवान् ॥ ७० ॥

ដោយកំណត់ច្បាស់ថា «ខ្ញុំផ្ទាល់គឺព្រះព្រហ្មនោះ»—ព្រះព្រហ្មដែលគ្មានឧបាធិ ក្លាយជាពន្លឺដោយខ្លួនឯង និងបរិសុទ្ធឥតមល—គាត់បានឈានដល់សន្តិភាពដ៏អធិក។

FAQs
It teaches that liberation culminates in firm inner certainty of one’s identity with the upādhi-free, self-luminous, stainless Brahman, which directly yields supreme peace (parā śānti).
While the verse is primarily jñāna-centered, it supports mature bhakti by pointing to the devotee’s final consummation: peace through direct realization of the pure, untainted Reality that bhakti worships—beyond all limiting notions.
No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa, Jyotiṣa, or Kalpa) is taught here; the practical takeaway is contemplative discernment (niścaya) and steady self-inquiry toward the upādhi-free Self.
