Academic Translation

That by which all this is strung (woven) together—like clusters of gems on a thread—that sūtra the yogin should hold (bear/maintain); (he is) the knower of yoga, the brāhmaṇa, the ascetic.

Verse Context

• Brahman as the inner ‘thread’ (sūtra) pervading and supporting the cosmos; dhāraṇā/nididhyāsana on the all-pervading principle
• Mahavakya: Conceptually consonant with ‘sarvaṃ khalv idaṃ brahma’ (Chāndogya) and with mahāvākya purport (non-dual Brahman as all); not a direct relation to the four canonical mahāvākyas.
• Atharva
• Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (śloka)
