**Shri Samadhyayanam**
"Ego me sasao appa, naanadansanasanjuo. Sesha me bahira bhava, savve sangyogalakkhana." ||1||
**Shadow:** One is my eternal soul, united with knowledge and vision. The rest are external things, all marked by association. ||1||
**Commentary:** One should cultivate the feeling of oneness. By being imbued with the feeling of oneness, one should not desire the help of others. Because in this world, which is afflicted by birth, old age, death, sickness, and sorrow, no one is capable of saving or protecting a being who is suffering from the fruits of his own actions. Therefore, it is said: "My own soul, united with knowledge and vision, is eternal. All remaining things are external, they are marked by association, obtained through association." Thus, the virtuous should always cultivate the feeling of oneness. By cultivating this feeling of oneness, one attains liberation - freedom from all attachments. There is not even a little bit of falsehood in this. See this. Consider. The aim of the feeling of oneness is liberation, which is true. This is the best - the main or the supreme. This is the state of meditative absorption, or whoever is an ascetic, whose body is purified by austerity, who is free from anger, who is free from pride, delusion, and greed, who is devoted to truth, that man is liberated. Truly, he is the best or the supreme.
**Verse 13:**
"Itthi ya araya mehunao, pariggaham cheva akuvva mane. Ucchavasu visasu tai, nissansayam bhikku samahipatte." ||13||
