As to those who have attained to both the universal and particular forms of consciousness, (namely intuition and knowledge, respectively), and who have attained to the universal (i.e. intuition) which by itself applies to (i.e. knows only) the self, even when the consciousness) on all sides touches (i.e. comprehends) the entire universe (which is) other than the self), and who are ever-alert in adhering to the activities pertaining to the profound restraints, both internal, (namely meditation), and external, (such as proper walking, sleeping, etc.), these fortunate ones have totally performed that which was to be done, leaving no residue, and (similarly they) have known (what was to be known).

You have given a slight (degree of primacy) to the universal aspect of consciousness, (namely intuition), and yet you are on all sides immersed in the particular forms of (i.e. the reflections of objects in) your own knowledge. (Thus) you are seen simply as (one who is) endowed with the greatness of that consciousness which is firm (in itself) and clear (with reference to obj. ects, i.e. which congizes them). In the hope of getting at i.e. isolating) the universal, one may forcefully and resolutely negate the multitude of manifest particulars, but in reality) no universal exists separate from all the particulars.
