25. The Self (ātman) alone shines as this world, as declared, like an immeasurable, singular ocean manifesting with its waves at the end of a cosmic cycle (kalpa). When this Self (ātman) is known, it indeed bestows the perfection of liberation (mokṣa); but when it remains unknown, it only leads to the mind's perpetual bondage.
