Brahman only. That being one, was not strong enough
(5-7-23). There is no other seer but He." The Isa. Up.
(4) says: "That One, though never stirring, is swifter
than mind." (7) "What sorrow, what trouble can there be
to him who once beholds that Unity?" (Ai. ar., 3-2-4)
says: "That Purusha who is within all beings, should be
understood, as my Self." (2-4-1) "Verily, in the beginning
all this was Self, one only; there was nothing else whatso-
ever astir." The Rigveda (I, 164-46; X, 114-5) says:
"The learned priests call one by many names; (1-154-3).
The one measured (the Universe) by his three steps;
(1-154-4). The only one upholds the whole Universe."
Chcha. Up. (6-2-1) says: "In the beginning, my dear,
there was only that which is one only, without a second."
Bh. Gita (6-31) says: "He who established in Unity,
worships me, abiding in all beings; (5-18) The sage looks
equally on a perfectly learned and humble Brahmana, a
cow, an elephant; (10-20). I, O, Gudakesa! am the Self,
seated in the hearts of all beings; (13-30.) When he per-
ceives that the varied natures of beings are rooted in One,
and proceedeth from it, then he reaches Brahman; (13-33).
As this one sun illuminates the whole earth, so the Lord
of the Kshetra (body) illuminates every Kshetra, O
Bharata (18-66) Renouncing all Dharmas, come unto me
alone for shelter; grieve not, I will liberate thee from all
sins." The Harivamsa says: "You should constantly
meditate upon Hari, centred in your Satvika nature, 0,
Brahmanas constantly recite the monosyllable Om and
contemplate upon Kesava. O, Supreme Purusha! thou art
one among the Devas, 0, long-armed one! thou art
blessed; there is no other in the world." There is the
Vedic text singing the greatness of Manu (Tai. Sam., 2-2-10)
thus: "Whatever Manu said is to be taken as antidote to
Samsara disease." Manu also (12-91) says: "He who
sacrifices to the Self alone equally recognising the Self in all
beings and all beings in the Self, becomes self-luminous."
