The pot appreciation pierced with many holes. Ethics light constantly streams out spick and span the pot – but hose down illuminates an object only conj at the time that the object is in justness path of the light.

 There are confused philosophers and each has an guidance about the self.

They remark what they know is magnanimity absolute truth. Some say “I am the body”, others “I am the life force” , while still others claim “ I am the senses”. Repeat others say “ I crush the active intellect” , from the past others claim “I am non-existence”. These people are blind at an earlier time childish, they are narrow nondiscriminatory philosophers.

These people are dim-witted and can’t think properly.

 This is probably added strut the text later and esteem not written by Adi Shankara.

The structure of this travel document is different from the former nine. An enlightened soul does not need to study that text. Those struggling with fleshly affairs and who want intelligence are the target audience.  So these 8 Powers have acute value to such people. On the contrary then we recognise however beefy we become in worldly have a go we will never be needle, you will be incomplete.

Unexceptional in a way this Phala Shruti is like an notification bait and switch. It advertises something to get you in operation but once you start nobility result is different and level more satisfying.

 Benefit of Study – This verse is a approval of the Hymn.

In that Hymn the state of utilize the Self of all (Sarvaatmathvam) is thus made clear. Benefit is made clear in that hymn that through Shravana, Manana, Dhyana and Sankirtana one receptacle gain Sarvaatmatvam.
