अहमेक्को खलु सुद्धो दंसणणाणमइयो सदारूवी। ण वि अस्थि मज्झ किंचि वि अण्णं परमाणुमेत्तं पि।।38| Ahamekko khalu suddho damsaņaņāṇamaiyo sadārāvī. Ņa vi atthi majjha kimchi vi anņam paramāņumettam pi. ||38|| अहमेकः खलु शुद्धो दर्शनज्ञानमयः सदाऽरूपी। नाप्यस्ति मम किंचिदप्यन्यत्परमाणुमात्रमपि।।38||

Annotation
This stanza concludes the chapter and may be considered as the summary or the bottom line of all that has been explained in the previous 37 stanzas. This stanza may also serve as an affirmation for daily use. It would prove beneficial to affirm it frequently to assimilate the concept even at subconscious level. It is interesting to note that it is written in the first person and in the present tense. The modern psychologists also say that such expression is important for an affirmation to be an effective affirmation.
The word 'always' used in this stanza highlights that whatever has been stated in this stanza was true in the past, would be true in the future and is true in the present. Thus by words 'always' and 'pure' we should visualize a purity which existed earlier, is existing now, and would continue to exist forever. Such purity has been described in stanza 6. In stanza 14 also we see some aspects of such ever existing purity.
To avoid any confusion regarding the term “purity let us understand its two meanings: (1) Ever-existent purity (2) The purity obtained after a purification procedure. Let us consider one example: Initially the gold was impure in the mine as it was contaminated with other minerals and clay, and by some purification procedure we got pure gold. In such a description we talk of a purity which was once non-existent, i.e., such purity is different from the purity which is always existent. Similarly, we say that at present our soul is contaminated with the anger,
