Verse Context

• Akartṛtva with functional embodiment; nāma-japa and śravaṇa as supports while abiding as sākṣin
• Mahavakya: Indirectly supports ‘तत् त्वम् असि’/‘अहं ब्रह्मास्मि’ by separating instruments (body/speech) from the Self; practice continues at the level of upādhi while identity is Brahman.
• Atharva
• Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (śloka)
