लक्ष्यालक्ष्यविहीनोऽस्मि लयहीनरसोऽस्म्यहम् । मातृमानविहीनोऽस्मि मेयहीनः शिवोऽस्म्यहम् ॥१३॥

लक्ष्य-अलक्ष्य-विहीनः अस्मि । लय-हीन-रसः अस्मि अहम् । मातृ-मान-विहीनः अस्मि । मेय-हीनः शिवः अस्मि अहम् ॥१३॥

lakṣyālakṣyavihīno 'smi layahīnaraso 'smy aham | mātṛmānavihīno 'smi meyahīnaḥ śivo 'smy aham ||13||

เราปราศจากทั้งสิ่งที่เป็นเป้าหมายและมิใช่เป้าหมาย; เราเป็นรสะแท้ที่ไร้การสลาย (ลยะ). เราปราศจากผู้วัด/ผู้รู้ (มาตฤมาน); เราคือศิวะ ผู้ไร้สิ่งที่ถูกวัดได้ (เมยะ).

I am devoid of the aimed-at (object) and the non-aimed-at; I am the essence (rasa) without dissolution (laya). I am devoid of the measurer/knower (mātṛmāna); I am Śiva, devoid of the measurable (meya).

Non-duality (Advaita): transcendence of pramātṛ–prameya (knower–known) and nirvikalpa nature of Ātman/BrahmanMahavakya: Supports ‘अहं ब्रह्मास्मि’ (Aham brahmāsmi) by negating subject–object duality and affirming identity with the absolute (Śiva/Brahman).YajurKṛṣṇa-Yajurveda (Maitrāyaṇīya śākhā) ShakhaChandas: Anuṣṭubh (śloka)
