Academic Translation

The wise person should contemplate the Self, freed from all limiting adjuncts. Thus, whoever knows (this) in accordance with reality becomes fit for Brahmanhood. I state, as it truly is, the essence of the established conclusions of all Vedānta. Having oneself ‘died’ (to identification), having oneself ‘become’ (Brahman), one alone remains as oneself. Thus ends the Upaniṣad.

Verse Context

• Ātman–Brahman identity; removal of upādhis (limiting adjuncts); mokṣa through jñāna
• Mahavakya: Closest in purport to ‘अहं ब्रह्मास्मि’ (Aham brahmāsmi) and ‘तत् त्वम् असि’ (Tat tvam asi): knowing the Self beyond upādhis culminates in brahma-bhāva (Brahmanhood).
• Krishna Yajurveda
• Chandas: Mixed/irregular (late Upaniṣadic, largely anuṣṭubh-like śloka diction rather than strict Vedic meter)
