परमेवाक्षरं प्रतिपद्यते स यो ह वै तदच्छायमशरीरमलोहितं शुभ्रमक्षरं वेदयते यस्तु सोम्य। स सर्वज्ञः सर्वो भवति तदेष श्लोकः॥
paramevākṣaraṃ pratipadyate sa yo ha vai tadacchāyamaśarīramalohitaṃ śubhramakṣaraṃ vedayate yastu somya | sa sarvajñaḥ sarvo bhavati tadeṣa ślokaḥ ||
""One who knows that imperishable - shadowless, bodiless, bloodless, pure, imperishable - O dear one, becomes all-knowing, becomes all. On this there is a verse:""
What This Means:
One who realizes the imperishable Self - which has no shadow, no body, no blood - becomes omniscient and one with all.
Going Deeper:
The attributes describe pure consciousness: no shadow (self-luminous), no body (transcendent), no blood (not biological). Knowing this, one becomes infinite.
How To Apply This:
Seek that which is beyond all physical attributes. In knowing the formless, you become unlimited.
