- The whole universe in the form of the world -- viswa,
- Intelligence -- prajna, and radiance -- tejas, is just Aum.

- If however any such division remains, the state has not been attained.
- The first sound 'a' of Aum, stands for the world,

- Without ignorance, without appearance,
- Inexpressible in words, and that he is Brahman,
- The essence of knowledge.
- This is the Upanishadic mystery.
