41. Just as the life-giving sap (rasa) exists within fruits, flowers, and leaves situated in all directions, so too are you, as the essence, eternally established within all worlds. You are, in truth, the ever-present, infinite, and supremely pure self (ātman) of consciousness. Oh Kaca, what kind of 'I'-identification (ahaṅkāra) can possibly apply to you, who are the very embodiment of existence?
