बहुत जन्मोंके अन्तमें अर्थात् मनुष्यजन्ममें 'सब कुछ परमात्मा ही है', ऐसा जो ज्ञानवान् मेरे शरण होता है, वह महात्मा अत्यन्त दुर्लभ है। अनुभव तब स्पष्ट होता है जब उसे किसी एक घटना का आकस्मिक संयोग न मानकर एक नियम की तरह देखा जाए। यह पंक्ति उसी नियम को इस प्रसंग में रखती है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
