ज्ञात्वा स्वमात्मानमुपैहि शान्तिम् ॥ २९६ ॥ 296. Therefore give up the identification with this lump of flesh, the gross body, as well as with the ego or the subtle body, which are both imagined by the Buddhi. Realising thy own Self, which is Knowledge Absolute and not to be deniedin the past, present and future, attain to Peace.
[ 'Imagined &c.-Because they are not in the Atman and our ignorance conjures them up through the Buddhi or determinative faculty.
2 Denied &c.—Because the Atman transcends time. ]

स्त्यक्ता भवाखण्डसुखस्वरूपः ॥ २६७ ॥ 297. Cease to identify thyself with family, lineage, name, form and the order of life, which pertain to the body which is like a rotten corpse (to a Jnânin). Similarly, giving up the ideas that thou art the agent and so forth, which are attributesof the subtle body, be the Essence of Bliss Absolute.
[ Rotten corpse-The body appears as living only
